Honda Odyssey Owners Master Thread
« on: April 19, 2021, 05:43:53 PM »
Figured this can be useful.

I had a 2011–2017 Series Odyssey and really enjoyed the various different storage compartments, FF 2021 they removed almost all of them, does anyone have any tips ?

Wouldn’t that qualify as a lemon? Can’t believe a Honda is built that bad...

I'm thinking of buying a 2012 with 92K. How many years/miles do you think I can get from it?

I hate, hate, hate the 2020 Odyssey! Every week another sensor is thrown off and it goes nuts telling you. "Left sliding door problem" "Tire pressure problem"  >:(
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

I have a 2012 with 196k on it. I am debating between selling it while it's still worth something or just driving it to the end.
Any thoughts?

How much would you get for it? How much longer will it run? How much will it cost you to keep it running that long?

If you would pay the amount you would get plus the cost of upkeep to have a car for that amount of time, keep it. Otherwise, get what you can and apply it to the next car.

He didn’t want to use up his own $.02 because that may have tipped the scale.. but thankfully you offered your own $.02 for free so now he can make his decision...

My previous lease was a Sienna, which had some issues, but I actually liked it better than the Odyssey I have now. I opted for the Odyssey vs the new Sienna because I got a sense that the Hybrid Sienna might be under powered for a full family load. I can't say I've encountered any problems with the Odyssey, but I just overall find it less convenient (and less fuel efficient) than the older Sienna.

FTR: I am not advocating lease vs buy. My situation was whatever it was that ended me up in a lease.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Besides for the above, consider the cost/benefits of what you’d replace it with
