Really I do not dislike the Odyssey. I bought it to use taking cloths etc. to Florida for the winter. The Mercedes does not have the cargo volume I need even if the mpg is much better see full Honda Odyssey review

2007 4dr Hatch 126-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
toyota has a famous quality reputation. personally, we were disappointed with our first toyota. see full Toyota Matrix review
2006 4dr Hatch 118-horsepower 1.8L I4
4-speed automatic AWD
First - irregardless of the negative press our country have been throwing at Toyota, this manufacturer have proven themselves to be #1 in dependability and lowest CPM year after year after year. IMHO the negative is shamefully 100% BS in an effort to swing US buyers away from the so much better and time proven Asian imports. 2) Ease of entry and exit, spacious rear seating, driving fun and the performance is more than adequate, AWD is perfect for our Pacific NW winter driving, hatchback is so convenient for our needs, fold down rear seats another HUGE PLUS!, attractive styling, we're not selling but the resale is and will be excellent. see full Toyota Matrix review
