Of what you listed, I would get the Odyssey. It has the best room, fuel economy, really solid smooth V6 J series, people seem to really like them.
You only have two kids right? Are sedans totally out? If not I would check out a RLX or G80, you can get great deals on them and they are pretty roomy, especially the RLX which I have heard they are taking 11K off right off the bat now and it has a lot of rear leg room, more then anything in its class.

Have you considered leasing?
Probably get much more car for your $$$.
When I was shopping late last year - XC90 and RX350 were solid SUVs with high quality interior.
If you want more performance then I would look at Germans.
Unless you plan to keep this over 5years - I don’t see any benefits to buying it.

Thats a possibility!

If I got another Pacifica I would want the 2021, I'd want AWD.
BUT, knowing Chrysler I would also worry about the new AWD system and the new infotainment in the 2021.

Hi Steve, so sad that such a nicely equipped vehicle has had so many visits to the shop. It would be taking a chance on another one, but it could be a different experience. Have you looked at Acura MDX? (I didn't read all the posts) It's frustrating when there's nothing else to fit the bill. Too bad Mercedes doesn't do a minivan like they did in the 2000s. Hope that you find joy in the process and the next best thing.

Any penalties for trading in your lease early? Timing sucks, but the new minivan options coming in a few short months outweighs the current options in my opinion. Personally would "suffer" the 3-4 months and wait it out.

SW - I know the whole fool me once...but I would be inclined to give it another shot with the new Pacifica. I’ve gotten lucky that I’ve never owned a lemon and if I were in your shoes I would be hesitant too but the ‘21 looks so good (for a minivan) and has really good tech compared to the others.

We'll see. I'm going to go look at some stuff today and hopefully bring a couple things home and see what she thinks of them. I'm less angry about it today than I was yesterday...
