The Odyssey has been our best vehicle purchase. We purchased this when we were adding a new little one to our family. We are a family of four now and travel fairly often. The Odyssey is exactly what we need for our trips and allows for extra passengers and cargo without jeopardizing any space. Our decision in purchasing the Odyssey was driven largely by the safety ratings. We wanted a quality, long-lasting vehicle that would be a safe environment for all of us. We did a lot of research in other vehicles prior to making our decision. We recently returned from a vacation where we were, once again, reminded of how great our van is. The mileage it gets is great, and the comfort level, even when riding in back, is untouched! Our only wish is that it contained other arm rests when for the middle seats when the middle seat is removed. Other than that, we have no complaints. The van is very well made. We hope to drive this van forever!

Honda Odyssey has high performance when it is speeding up. The passengers feel stable even when it is in high speed. I also like it in terms of practicality because it is very roomy. We can put in at least four luggage pieces for our road trips. In addition, it has a GPS installed, which at that time was really high-tech and convenient. There is also a video player with a small monitor for the back passengers. I purchased the pearl blue color, which I couldn't see from the other car brands at that time, and I like the color so much. And it looks stylish and high class because the interior is made with leather. A little problem is the brake. I need to allow more time for the van to come to a complete stop after I step on the brake, which is a reliability concern. In terms of comfort, the van is very roomy and has heated seats at the front. The only concern is that the chair back doesn't fit the contour of my back well because I am a skinny person. When I lower the chair back and lie down a bit, it doesn't feel quite comfortable. Lastly, the van doesn't rank high in terms of fuel economy because it is only 20 local and 26 highways.
