Luxurious and Versatile
I live in snow country, and my hobbies include golf, alpine skiing, gardening, and woodworking/cabinetmaking. This vehicle meets my needs better than any that I have owned. With full time All Wheel Drive it handles the icy roads I encounter on the way to the ski resort beautifully. With the fold-flat third row seats and readily removable second row seats I can haul several sheets of plywood or a big load of gardening supplies. It is also great for road trips; I can carry up to five golf buddies and all of their gear. I have driven it on two long excursions over many mountain passes in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and Wyoming. Much of this journey is on highways with 80 mph speed limit, grades up to 6% and 9000 foot elevations. This vehicle handles those roads pretty well, although it could use a couple more gears (it has 6). In order to climb the steep grades at 80 mph it has to drop into 4th gear, which pushes the engine to 4000 RPM. I notice that the newer Siennas have 8 speed transmissions, which should be a nice improvement for high speed hill climbing.
