I am deciding on a personal vehicle that I will be using when I am on a postal route that doesn't have one, I have seen other carriers with early 2000s Toyota Sienna's and a couple with Dodge Grand Caravans (not sure what year), I have been trying to decide between Early 2000's Toyota Sienna's, mid 2000's Honda Odyssey, and mid 2000's Grand Caravan, I can find these all for around the same price. Any recommendations for reliability out of the 3 for getting beat up delivering mail would be much appreciated, thanks! (I have been told the main things to look for are engine and transmission issues since suspension stuff will end up needing replaced anyways)
Sienna will be the most reliable

Hands down the Toyota Sienna. The Grand Caravans were always junk (they also don't make them anymore). Honda Odysseys are good for the first 100k miles or so, but they have weak automatic transmissions. Honda doesn't specialize in trucks and minivans. Toyota does.

Sienna.
