Mark Bilek

Sienna is an excellent minivan. XLE just isn't a great value. The $25,000 LE with the $3,000 safety package is about all the minivan any family would ever need. Still, Toyota sets the bar in this class for overall room, comfort, and power.

Tom Appel

Pretty much a huge ES330, and that's a good thing. If you're looking for a high-lux minivan and you can't abide the Chrysler Town & Country's gruff engines, this is your baby. I want to complain about the $36,000 sticker on this cream puff, but it's loaded, and less pricey Siennas can be had.
