I have a 2009 Sienna that I got in 2008 - have had it 2 years now and absolutely love it. I felt that the Sienna had much better acceleration and that was important to me as I drive highway daily.
We didn't get a DVD player on purpose as our son did not watch TV at all until after age 2 and even now, age 4, is limited to 45 minutes daily. We were the only people we knew who purposely didn't get the installed DVD player. We figured if we ever wanted it, we would buy a portable - still haven't done that but our son knows a tone of songs and nursery rhymes and car games!
I know 2 mamas who got mini-vans at the same time as me and both have broken DVD players. One got the Odyssey and the other got the Town and Country.
