Hey Scotty and friends. I know pretty much any Sienna is good but I've heard that the Honda Odyssey has transmission issues. Is it all of them or just some select years? I have no issue just sticking to Toyota but I want to keep my options open. Need a van that can get the most miles possible without much trouble. Will be using it for traveling with family and I don't want to have to worry about breakdowns. Thanks everyone!
You would be better off with a Sienna, but the worst Odyssey years for transmission issues is anything 2004 and before, 2014-2015, and 2018+

Our 2014 Odyssey hasn't had any transmission issues yet, but its only got 20k miles.
