Ur reason(s)?

As far as Nigerian interstate roads are concerned,

More reliable - Sienna
More rugged - Sienna
Can withstand bad roads better - Sienna
Too low to the ground - Odyssey
Bad legs - Odyssey
Better suspension system - Sienna
Better engine Performance - Sienna
Better transmission - Sienna
Prone to electrical failure - Odyssey
Better weight capacity - Sienna
Stronger body frame - Sienna
Better resale value - Sienna
Better accessibility to parts along interstate routes - Sienna
Better Solidarity Along the Expressway - Sienna (you will find many other sienna drivers around, but you will hardly see Odyssey) grin

if you try interstate transport on Nigerian roads with Odyssey, as in, making frequent every day trips, if your bus last 4 months, then you are a miracle worker grin

First, calm down. You mustn't buy today today. Forget all those dealers putting you under pressure that someone else is coming to buy it this afternoon. Na wash

Please calm down and do your research and be convinced before buying any car. Please. You will get even better deals if you are patient.
you too much, I like your way of reasoning, what is he rushing for, those marketers can put customer into unnecessary pressure, op relax so you don't end up regretting.

Hello house, goodmorning.

Please between Toyota Sienna 2002 and Honda Odyssey 2006 which one is best for interstate transport business and why?


Urgent answers needed as I intend buying either of the cars this evening.

Thanks for your input.

TOYOTA SIENNA is preferable to HONDA ODYSSEY 2006...because of cheap maintenance, durability, fuel consumption etc

Don't succumb to their pressure, in fact the best way to handle it is to tell them u are no longer interested

Toyota Sienna is the best. And let it be a 4 cylinders engine. You are sure to make your money back.
Re: Which Of These Cars Is Best For Transport Business? by maxmyluv(m): 1:48pm On Mar 27, 2019
Also thanks guys for ur input. Though most of u just say go for sienna but never gave reasons i shud go for sienna. I was told by a mech dat sienna consume fuel.[/quote]. From personal experience. Never you go near Honda for commercial purpose if you are not buying tear rubber. That Sienna is also prone to gearbox and engine wahala. Please go for Picnic, Avensis verso or VW sharan as someone advised earlier.

Re: Which Of These Cars Is Best For Transport Business? by quietswagg: 2:09pm On Mar 27, 2019
Toyota Sienna is more durable and has second hand value, i have two of my colleagues who are using it.

Gearbox problem is prevalent with Honda Odyseey, i will advice you to go for Toyota Sienna though it engine is v6 so it consumes fuel

Honda Odyssey is plagued by transmission problems.
Honda is aware of it. Save yourself the headache and go for Sienna.

amendara1:
Don't go for any of the 2 , buy either of this u will thank me later.
1. Toyota Avensis verso
2. Toyota Picnic or
3. Vw sharan,
there all usually 4 cylinder engine and also strong.

you forget to include Peugeot 806, simple in appearance, very good on the road. It comes with three type of engine: 1.6, 1.8 and 2.0. It also comes in manual and automatic transmission. Really good vehicle for transport business. That is if op is really seeking for advise and not approval for what is mind is already made up for.
