Its good to have more minivan choices. Market was getting fairly thin on what is ultimately the most sensible mover for many families.

I can't remember, is the Sedona a sort of $2k-3k cheaper version of the Odyenna or does it slug it out for most seats per dollar with the Caravan CVP?
You can't just have your characters announce how they feel.

The 2014 Sedona starts from only $28,695 for the LX and $30,495 for the LX Convenience, which is decent at those prices, but to get anything like power sliding doors and automatic climate control that are in the $34k Odyssey and Sienna and $30k Grand Caravan and you're spending $37k and $40k respectively for a Sedona EX and EX Luxury. At that point, run, don't walk away, to your near Honda, Toyota, or Chrysler dealer.

When I bought the wife one in 08, it was a $29995 sticker, plus freight/ PDI.   About $31700 retail.  I paid about $29700, and they had $10,000 on the hood.

Agreed.  Plus, the Kia's have never been fuel efficient.  That's becoming a major selling factor of the new generation minivans.

The beltline keeps rising as you go to the back of the van...the third row windows look rather small.

Looks hot. This will further push down the resale value of the 3rd gen Odysseys when I'm ready to buy one.  ;D
