Our 2000 Honda Odyssey has just died (drive splice broke, resulting in diff and transmission failure). We need to replace this with a reliable, much newer people mover. What would you recommend reliability-wise? Is it worth spending the extra and getting a Toyota Highlander?

Hi there,
The Toyota Highlander is a great vehicle, it has a V6 petrol engine and may not be the most economical.
There is new Mazda CX-9 if you want the ultimate vehicle for the job. Others include the Mitsubishi Outlander, Kia Sorento, or Nissan X-trail for more SUV type 7-seaters.
