*Disclosure: I test drove the Toyota Sienna for a road trip. All opinions are true and honest.
When it comes to road-tripping, I know I can count on the Toyota Sienna. This past summer, it was the perfect car for our family vacation. So it came to no surprise that it would work perfectly for a road trip down to Florida.

Road Trip to Florida
Ok, things are about to get confusing. Maybe. So if you follow along on my Insta Stories, you know I recently attended a conference for A Girl’s Guide to Cars in Atlanta, Georgia. Here’s the thing, the conference fell on my birthday and I already had a trip to Florida planned. I decided to try and do both and took a flight out to Atlanta and drive to Florida with two other bloggers who were already driving there… if that makes sense. See, told you it would be confusing. Did I mention I had my mom and daughter with me?
Why the Sienna is Perfect for Big Groups
When we were planning to drive together, we knew a party of five would need space and comfort. A 5-6 hour road trip is not easy in a small car. Immediately we thought or either a large SUV or minivan. Since I had experienced driving the Toyota Sienna, I suggested that it would be a good option. We can all agree that it was. Everyone was comfortable. Five passengers and luggage and there was still room.

Is this Minivan for You?
I can’t say enough good things about the Toyota Sienna. Having spent almost a month with it this past summer and again recently, I can give this baby two thumbs up. And it’s kid-approved, too. My daughter loves having space and relaxing in the backseat while she watches a movie. If you have a big family and are in the market for a new car, be sure to check this one out. Or if you’re planning a road trip and need to rent a car, this is an awesome choice. Trust me, your passengers will thank you 😉
