    P.S.A.: I did my quick Google research, and just to share for those wondering, the wheels do by definition have hubcaps. That definition being "a removable usually metal cap over the end of an axle". Websters Dictionary. That being said, they are not what most, including myself, would consider hubcaps. They are essentially plastic covers that match and fit over an alloy wheel. Acting to the wheel as a phone case does to a phone. That's the reason there is so much visibility of the rotor, caliper, etc.; because there is indeed an alloy wheel under the cover, even on the base model Sienna (at least for 2023). I assume this was done in an effort to prevent curb rash, but that's purely speculation. Hope this helps some of you that were as confused by this as me.

    • @roby827
      @roby827 10 месяцев назад +3

      It actually makes curb rash worse because the plastic bends and twists. You can't refinish it like normal alloy wheels and they also don't sell replacement covers - you have to buy a whole new wheel. I think it's made so Toyota can save money. They can make one base wheel and just create different covers for different looks.

    As an owner of TWO minivans, I appreciate the content. Our Grand Caravan has the Journeys off road 2” lift. It’s great when loaded up with bike rack, bikes and camping gear and kids. Our AWD Sienna only has oversized all terrain tires. When we purchase a new Sienna we will be adding the same 3” JOR kit.

  • @niall21
    @niall21 Год назад +3

    I don't care what other people say, the fact that minivans do their singular job extremely well makes them cool in my book. I also think they are the ideal candidate for an EV, especially in the western US where charging on road trips is a non-issue. They're just the right shape and use case. Also power sliding doors are a cooler concept than any other door style and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.

    I've always thought minivans were severely underrated, I drove one some 20 years ago for a party (think it was a Honda Odyssey) and was super impressed with how easy-to-drive and comfortable it was. They've been my "peak daily" mentality since but their prices were pretty crazy last time I'd checked.
    Really love the idea of an AWD hybrid Civic, that would be wicked!

    I believe at one time or another we all have been stuck with vehicles that are not as cool as we want them to be. Taking a sow's ear and making it better is what car tuning does best when it comes to budget builds. I love the look of the lowered Sienna, but I think in addition, a thicker rear antisway bar is always a good choice for front wheel drive vehicles.

I love that you guys are doing something that's different than what most would do. I took the seats out of my Estima and built some draws/shelving and I now use it as a plumbing van. Can't wait to hopefully see more vans on the channel 👍

  • @greggvanzyl5563
    @greggvanzyl5563 Год назад +5

    Honestly like both versions. The sienna is probably the only van that I would do this with though. Mainly because of parts availability and secondly because of the factory box flares. It looks so good from the factory (for a van) that it doesn't need much to look superb.

      doesn't help the fact that Canadians have a lot of influence on both sides of the spectrum as far as the UK and the US go and they both say it slightly different. While at the same time both are saying it slightly wrong. The real pronunciation in Italian has the long R with the proper A vowel sound. Thus, making Canadians a very interesting breed of pronouncers. It's kind of funny actually because the ronunciation topic is always coming up here in Canada 🤣

My truck doesn’t even come close to the usefulness of a minivan unless you’re towing. Which is not very often and honestly what I tow could easily be done with a minivan. Lol
