I have an 05 Sienna Limited with all the toys and an 01 GS430. If you miss the GS, just go to the Sienna and close your eyes while holding the shifter as they are pretty much the same. If that is not enought, try the headlights or winshield wiper. :^)

I'd rather be in a SUV than a minivan. I think the minivan has a boring stigma attached to it in terms of how you look from the outside. The Sienna does look sweet and a step up from previous years. I have no kids but I've worked hard for my GS and it'll be something that would not be easy to give up despite having kids. I'd rather get a used car so the kids could spill their food and drinks on and leave their toys in.

HA HA all of you guys have a good point, but my real plan is to get on her good side so she can agree on the 09 GTR Heeheee . Believe me i did not want to sale my GS430 at all. As for suv, they tend to be too high up for the baby carrier for the wife. I did look at a X5, and porche cayenne S but came to a conlusion that it was not practical enough for her. Yes she got me whip, because she has been so supportive when i said "honey i need a $4,000 dollar rims" or "honey i want to fix up my IS350" .

I love my wife dearly but I couldn't do it. When we found out that she was pregnant I was dreading having to drive around in a minivan. When I discussed getting a family vehicle she informed me "No Minivan" hence the GX470. As nice as your vehicle looks inside and out it's the stigma of suburban family at the local Walmart makes me break out in a cold sweat. By the way we shop at Target. But that is a nice vehicle. Any DUBS in the future for it? Kidding.
