I have read other forums that the best guesstimate for the Toyota Sienna will be sometime in 2007.
In Japan they have already sold it since 2003, but under the name of the Estima or Alphard. Can anyone tell me when the best time to order? I'm leaning away from the Highlander and going towards the Sienna. I read the Sienna will get over 40 mpg.
How should I go about pre-ordering?

I don't know where you got the 40 mpg on the Sienna, but it's rated at 18/24. The best mileage on a minivan is the Honda Odyssey at 20/28. That's on their EX-L and Touring editions with the variable cylinder control (goes from 6 cylinders to 3 when there's not too much load). I *LOVE* our '05 Odyssey!
