Used 2005 Toyota Sienna Consumer Reviews
The seats won us over
We looked at several minivans to replace our 98 Chevy Venture. In many ways we liked the Dodge/Chrysler vans better, but seat comfort actually helped win us to the Sienna. We're a little underimpressed with the mileage and power. The heating and A/C controls are a tad confusing. Quality is excellent. It's very quiet. Sometimes we're not sure the engine is on. Initial acceleration is a bit slow, but on highway pickup is good.
HO-HUM
I have owned this van for two months. I find the driver seat lumbar to be very uncomfortable even fully deflated. It doesn't compare in comfort to my BMW X5 seat. It is also a real gas hog. We are averaging about 14.5 mpg; I think toyota lies on their mpg ratings on the sales sticker. If the fuel consumption is going to be this low it should be a better performer. The dynamic laser cruise control can be a pain when it hits the brakes because of reflection from trucks in adjacent lanes not attempting to move into your lane. I usually run the cruise in "old fashioned" mode. The little curved mirror used to see the passengers is nearly useless.

Toyota Sienna 2004
The car drives smoothly without any notice to shifting. The turning radius is outstanding and the van is extremely comfortable, luxurious, and functional for a family of five. We love it.
great van with bad tyres
Rear mirror covering lots of front windshild for 6 lf. tall guy.Run flat tire went bad after 20000km no help from Toyota or Tyre comp. Really, really annoyed me - cost $400.00/tyre (thank you very much). Back up sensor - great cruse control sensor -fantastic
2005 Sienna a Hit
I just traded in a 2000 Toyota Sienna and went with the 2005 model. I couldn't be happier. I was impressed with the power, performance and reliability of the 2000 model and Toyota has outdone themselves with the upgrades. This minivan drives like a car, not a truck like the Ford Freestar or even the Honda Odyssey. It's roomy; 50% larger than the 2000 model; quiet with good milage and instrumentation to help you make the most out of your milage. Welcome additions include the second row roll down windows and stow-n-go rear seating. With ABS, Traction control, and front and side curtain airbags, this is a great mix of safety and performance. I'll be back to try the next upgrade in a few years.
