Love It
I'm a a person that vowed never to own a minivan but 3 kids later I went for it. The Sienna is the best car I've had. The interior space is great and really have had no problems, just regular maintenance and tires. Brakes were need at 50k but that is to be expected. We have a large tent trailer we tow and it pulls like a dream (we got the tow package). The only thing I would improve is the underside clearance. When towing (and even when not), you need to be aware of the clearance. It rides very low and you can bottom out if your not careful. I've heard all minivans are like this though.
Disappointment
1.The navigating computer does not work correctly. 2.Consumes too much gasoline. 3.Requires allignment. 4.The side sliding door des not close properly. 5.Transmition requires correction. 6.Overpriced. More stable on the road then GM or Chrisler. I had Venture before and I had much less problems then with this garbage

Good family hauler
I have owned my Sienna for less than a year, yet have already discovered this van's virtues. It is very much the Camry of minivans: it is not a particularly exciting or involving vehicle to drive, but it gets you and 6 friends from point A to point B with little fuss. The drivetrain is refined and ride comfort is very good. All the vehicle's controls are simple to operate, and interior space is excellent. So far, I've averaged 9.5L/100km (25mpg) in mixed city/hwy driving, which is better than some 4cyl cars. I can't really comment on long-term reliability, but I haven't encountered any problems yet with the van. Overall, it's a very practical vehicle to own, albeit not a very inspiring one.
Very trouble-prone vehicle
I have to say that my 2004 Sienna has been the most trouble-prone vehicle I've owned. Multiple recalls and numerous repairs including odd items like broken rear gate closers and driver door closer. Difficulty getting the extended warranty (purchased through dealer) to step up.
2004 Sienna LE
While we love the van most of the time, we have had it in the shop way too many times (at least 8) in 20 months for non-routine items. There is a problem with the middle row passenger side seat belt that Toyota can't seem to fix after 5 visits, and the drivers side sliding door creaks (3 visits), as well as 3 recalls (some trips we had multiple things done). The build quality isn't what we had hoped for from Toyota.
