Just letting you all know I picked up my Sedona today and I have to say I am well impressed Smile ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. Shift+A improves the quality of all images on this page. Drove it 70 miles back and it was a real pleasurable drive very quiet and very responsive !! Got it booked in next week to get the few bits of body work to be sorted but mechanical wise nothing to do other than adjust the handbrake and the bonus is the wife loves it Smile ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. Shift+A improves the quality of all images on this page. Looking forward to trying it out with our caravan on the back in a weeks time.

Picked up mine a few weeks back and spent a small fortune getting it sorted ! Including a new handbrake cable.
Anyway off on my holls in the morning, towing my caravan, can't wait.
Hope it will pull the van well.
Big smile

Yeah, I reckon we'll see you on here quite a lot too Beno! LOL Hope you've got a good tool kit and a sense of humour. LOL.
I've had my 02 Sedona for a couple of years now and never a dull moment --- always something to fix. I've spent so much on it just trying to keep it running. But I love it, loadsa room to take my drums and lighting to gigs on a saturday night and a great stable towing vehicle for the caravan (02 Bailey Pageant).
 
Looking forward to our annual trip to the Indre region of france in just over a month with the caravan -- assuming something else doesn't go wrong between now and the time we leave.   Big smile
 
Good luck, hope you enjoy your new Sedona. 
Freedom of choice is a hell of a burden
