Other than the fact the Hi-Limousine looks like it has a roof box permanently attached to it.



It's been around since the previous generation.



And I was wonderring why the photo in the previous post showed third row captain seats. Seems like the Korean model has an available fourth row. This is from the previous generation:



Love that taller roof.

Apparently its quite common for executives in South Korea who prefer to be chauffeured around in this type of vehicles instead of luxury cars - certainly much easier to get in and out.  ;D

In a few weeks I'll be putting in some time with a LX+ driving to Vermont and back with a buddy.

Van owners....will the center tunnel clutter in the Sedona be an issue? ??? This is a pretty sweet looking van and the only obvious flaw I can see in the design is that it seems it would be very hard to move around between the front seats etc.

IF I have to haul 6-8 people around in regularity it won't be in one of these  :P A Ford Transit Connect will have way more room and some actual cargo capacity.

If only they could make sliding FRONT doors I might even consider parking beside a minivan  :P

The Transit Connect is tiny compared to minivans. 2950 litres of cargo capacity in the Transit Connect vs. 4000 litres in the Sienna/Odyssey/Sedona/Grand Caravan.

The Transit Connect has 515 litres behind the 3rd row in the long wheel base compared to 1000 litres in the big four. Plus the third row in the big four is way more comfortable. I sat in the third row of the Transit Connect, it's not comfortable by a long shot.

New Ford Transit (not Connect)? Now there's some real passenger and cargo hauling. If you don't mind not being able to park in the underground parking of your local mall (with the tall body and likely the short body too).

If I had to haul 6-8 people on a regular basis, I'd get rid of 5-7 of them.  ;D
