Used 2001 Toyota Sienna Consumer Reviews
As a car guy, it's my favorite ride
I get this Minivan at 130k and sell it 170k miles after 2.5 years. It's my favourite. It's comfortable, drives like a cloud, it is powerful, gives you a lot of pull when you need it. It tows well, i move my home with it plus u-hall trailer. Reliability is good, however, the shocks needs replacement after years, but it's cheap to get and put on. also front brakes needs work too. ABS quit work because the snow situation in upstate new york, I prefer no ABS on this van. Interior are compartively small, but still comfortable. If you get an XLE, you will have sunroof, heated leather seats, power doors, climate control, 6CD with JBL. Only drawback I believe is the styling, and the stereotype people judge on minivan drivers. Also, my rocker panel all rust out, hood front is rusty too.

Great Car
Never thought I would be writing accolades for a minivan, but here I am, doing just that. Absolutely the best family vehicle you could own for a family of four or more. Very peppy engine, handling is great, mileage is pretty good and the best thing is you can put everything plus the kitchen sink in this vehicle on trips to grandma's. We bought a small tv for the kids to use during trips, no fancy drop down dvd, and it works great with their earphones, for $200 or so.
Very reliable
I am the original owner of a 2001 Sienna XLE. This have been a very reliable car for my family. The only problem we had was the running board rusted out at 80K miles that we had to remove, may be due to winter road salt. We replace timing belt and water pump at 100K and vehicle has 170K miles now. The other large ticket maintenance item was the catalytic converter, it consists of 3 sections and were all replaced.

Good choice.
This is a well made van. Of course it is the only van we have owned. It is basically a Camry.
