  Better than a Suburban! - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By KCB - January 11 - 2:00 am

  I have 4 girls aged 11-4 years. I was nervous about downsizing from a Suburban, but figured we always pack light anyway. This car is great. It is unbelievably quick, both in starting from 0 mph to 65 and in how quickly it stops when you break. Even my husband admitted it was SO much nicer to drive than the old truck. Additionally, it has a huge amount of space -- the cargo space in the back is very deep.

  Ijust bought my van. I can from A Ford Windstar. It rides much smoother than the windstar. I love the bucket seats for my two kids.

  Lovin my new Odyssey - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By jenfoor - December 20 - 2:00 am

  I just purchased an Odyssey a little over a week ago. I was home visiting my parents in Wisconsin and traded in the Voyager for the Odyssey and drove it home to Florida (1100 miles) I loved everything about driving long distance with the Honda. The kids (4 and 2) were separated from each other in the second row buckets, that was great. The DVD player was a lifesaver and I love the lower lumbar adjustment on the driver seat for my lower back. And I got better gas mileage than with the 2.4 ltr. Plymouth.

  Ups and downs - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By Ray D - November 19 - 10:00 am

  After long debate over the Kia Sedona and the Honda I finally went with Honda. So far, bad choice. Car pulls to the left in all conditions and while five weeks and tons of letters and phone calls yielded a Honda field technician to "make some adjustments" the car is still not right. Now getting clunks in transmission randomly at start up and Ive read about some transmission issues. I will not keep car past warranty. Wish I took a chance on the Kia. Still think the Honda is the best designed, but no longer am awed by Honda reliabilty or service repuation--at least I did not experience it!

  A little disappointed - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By Liz - October 23 - 4:10 pm

  I had trouble with the tranny but they fixed it, but when backing up then putting on the breaks, I hear a lot of clatter. ??? The idle revs a lot so into the shop it goes. (twice now) The light on the clock went out so that means drop the van off at the dealer for one full day, again. The check engine light is annoying and I hate to have to put the van in park to open the side doors. Milage is horrible but I like the large vehicle so thats the price you pay. I probably wont buy Honda again because of the hassle in the repairs. After the 36,000 mile warrenty, I almost have to purchase the extension. Cant wait for that expense!

  Theyre better out there (Chrysler) - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By testedall - October 13 - 2:00 am

  The Honda is totally outclassed in luxury, road noise, smooth ride. The Chrysler is much better is these regards. Hondas interior is plain stark compared to its competition. Features that Honda has going for it are a 5 speed tranny and the fold-away third seat. But Id rather have a full sized spare, personally. Chrysler stands behind their powertrain. Honda does not (3-36 is the worst in the industry). Sorry Honda, the Chrysler wins big time here. Ive owned 4 minivans and I cant sacrifice plain interiors and lousy ride for a supposed reliability advantage that Honda themselves wont back up.

  King of the family cars - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By kenseido - October 13 - 2:00 am

  Im not a van lover. With kids now and the lack of gas mileage in the large SUVs, I cant deny this thing is a true winner. The only reason I didnt give it a perfect 10 is lack of memory seats and leather steering wheel. Dealers wont negotiate much on these still, but they are worth the money. Got the EX with DVD system for $1000 under MSRP and a couple of extras thrown in. THe rear liner is good to have. No regrets, would buy again.

  Minivan of Choice - 2003 Honda Odyssey
  By Mr_Mondoman - October 13 - 2:00 am

  I have only owned this van for a little more than a month, and so far, it has been perfect in every way. My only complaint is that it goes through a 20 gallon tank of gas pretty quick. Not as good MPG as boosted, but heck, I am still breaking it in also. Seating for seven is very comforatable, easy to drive and great to look at.
