Looking at the Toyota Sienna 2011 or other models

(Image from Autoblog.com)

So what does a Toyota Sienna minivan have to do with photography?! Absolutely nothing! Ok, it actually does since that might be the transportation that I will use to get to some of these exotic locations. The AWD drive version means that getting to Yosemite in the snow or bad weather can be that much safer. The Sienna 2011 models look pretty cool for a minivan and appear to drive well from what our friends say. They did include the new pricing as well and a new car is WAY expensive. We might go for an older used model with low miles... say a 2006, 2007 with 30,000 miles if we can find one. I am currently driving a vintage 1992 BMW 325i with 160K miles. It runs great, it just can't handle the snow like an AWD version might. There are a couple of great reports on the 2011 Sienna here and here. I have included a picture from Autoblog as well. I REALLY love the reclining seats for the 2nd row!!! I wouldn't mind being chauffered around! Any input, thoughts or suggestions for getting a minivan?! Leave a comment on the blog! cheers, John
