 Bought this van new in 2008 and have treated it well. Initially liked it well enough, though lack of flat area on center console was very annoying.  However, even from the beginning, poor craftsmanship/materials were evident.  Things started breaking within a year.  Pieces of trim coming unglued and hanging off, buttons breaking, etc. - those little things that drive you nuts.  I had to replace the factory standard tires and battery far sooner than I should have. Cabin noise has also increased significantly since purchase.  For the past 5 years I have had a gurgling behind the steering column that no mechanic has ever been able to identify, including Toyota dealership.  Van has begun to shimmy and vibrate over 50 mph, which no mechanic has been able to fix.But more concerning is the handling in all weather that is the least bit damp.  Despite trying various types of tires, and driving well within the speed dictated by road conditions, the van has significant issues with lack of traction and hydroplaning.  Even pulling out at a light on  slightly damp roads can cause the wheels to slip.  If wet weather is bad, snow is even worse.  I have gotten to the point that I just don't drive the vehicle in inclement weather.  The only reason I have kept the van is that I only see myself needing a van for another couple years.  Once the kids are out of college you no longer need that size vehicle.  So I park it on my driveway and use it only when my Honda CRV just isn't big enough.
