Odyssey's have a forum? I can imagine the threads..."what did you find under the baby seat today?"... "how can I permanently turn off the cloaking feature?"...

You forgot one...."What's the easiest way to drive, eat my breakfast and put on my makeup"? :shock:?

Guy I work with has an old Odyssey. I always ask him where he stashes his purse! He laughs and says it keeps on going, even with a broken dipstick. Asked when is the last time the oil was changed? He shrugs and says, can’t remember. If it starts ticking I add a little till it goes away. He swears by Honda though! ?

My oldest son has a Honda Odyssey an it has one job: haul 4 kids and 2 adults point A to point B. The only "mod" I've ever heard of him making is adding a hitch receiver for a bike rack. Never heard him mention anything about a "forum".

He also has a Honda civic sport. He bought that since he couldn't find a WRX in his price range (he usually pays cash). He wanted a small fun car with a manual transmission to drive to work an mess around with. He did an aftermarket tune an now the clutch will slip if you give it too much throttle at low RPM. He said he needs to do a conversion to either the civic SI or Acura clutch since there isn't an aftermarket option available.

Odyssey=not fun to modify.....lease it an get rid of it
Some of the other products=fun to modify an dump a don of money into that you'll never get back

Life is too short to drive a minivan.
They have their place in some families.
We had a Pontiac minivan once (early-to-mid 90's model). Very comfortable and very much handy for our family, which included a somewhat handicapped daughter at the time. Low sill and grabhandles at just the right spot were necessary for her, as was the space inside.
We were not happy when the engine gave out, and nothing we replaced it with was as solid or as comfortable.

This forum is great for information unless you’re trying to lower your truck 5”. Then all I can say is good luck! ?

Or if you're trying to figure out which 303 product to put on your Dee Zee tailgate damper................oh yeah, I went there..............:bow::turkey: :turkey: :turkey: :turkey: :turkey: :turkey: :turkey: :turkey:

@AzScorpion Rick made me do it Dave. I didn't want to, but you know how he goes on and on and on..........the pressure was horrible. :crazy: :giggle:

In terms of automotive forums, this is the most social and welcoming.

I was/am a member of the f150 forums and damn a lot of those guys are dicks, Say one bad thing about their precious fucking pop can on wheels and they flip out.
Similar group as the old dakota forums, Colorado forums.


Never posted on the S10/Sonoma forums despite my pure love for em. In fact If I could find a like-new restored S10 crew cab, I'd play with the idea of switching.

I’ve had a 98 Explorer and have a 2013 Explorer. Explorerforum was great for the 98. Tons of good info. But almost every question about the later models were met with old men replying “just take it to the dealer, they have free coffee”. Why even reply to the thread? For a long time was just guys fretting about their orders and talking about their leases.

Sometimes somebody has to take one for the team. Not here though.
The wife of the guy who needed to buy a minivan because they have 6 kids definitely "took one" for the team.. a few times lol.

Didn't know there was hate on Honda here... Been pretty happy with mine!

To be fair, it's really not Honda hate. It's hate for anything that isn't Ranger or Ford. Honda is just today's 2 minutes of hate. :devil:
