Re: Probably gonna get an Odyssey...

The EX-L is easily the best deal in the Odyssey.  I drive my elderly
parents 
around and I decided that I wanted power sliding doors for them (the right

decision) and rear hatches on vans get filthy fast so I wanted a power
rear 
door.  For that you need the touring model.  I regret not paying more and 
gettting the rear view camera and navigation (my wife has navigation on
her 
accord and it is a pleasure).  But the front and rear sensors are very 
helpful.
