Honda taking a step to make a detailer's life easier???

That sounds like its great for people with kids. Also seems like it would take some business from those who do those messy kid interiors.
 
Trust me,the soccer Moms that drive those vans dont have time to vacume!

Did you also know there are freaking 17 cup holders in those Odysseys!

Dear detailchick & Friends

Hey, there are dads out here who drive these, too! I is one.

The 2011-13 Odysseys have fifteen cupholders. We don't need that many, though, because I won't let my almost-five-year-old son eat or drink in the van. I always tell him, "No eating or drinking in the van."

Becky gets angry with me on long trips over this rule, but I'm a nazi about the van. We paid a zillion dollars for it and I want to take good care of it.

I don't understand the vacuum. Have you seen the video? There are some neat little pieces of candy that are vacuumed up. Let's see it vacuum up vomit, poop, and peepee. When little Joey drops his ice cream cone into the crack between two seats, let's see that vacuum suck that up.

I have a tiny Shop-Vac next to our van in our basement garage. It's always plugged in and ready to go. It's very quick and easy to vacuum day-to-day debris off the rubber WeatherTech floor liners. Dirt and other stains have cleaned up easily for me with Opti-Clean.

Today I gave the van a bath in Blackfire Wet Diamond Conditioning Shampoo and dressed her tires with a spray-on (1:1) application of Blackfire Total Eclipse Tire Dressing Gel.

I love this van.

If you see it rockin', don't bother knockin'. (Actually, if you see it rockin', you might check to make sure my son isn't locked inside.)

I find it funny that Honda hypes the HondaVac so hard and its only on the $44,000 Odyssey.

Dear Showtimeshoes & Friends

And there's less flexibility in this price/trim level than there is in the lower trim levels, at least toward the beginning of the new model year.

We bought the EX-L with navigation. If I'd known we were going to love this van so much, I'd have splurged for the Touring Elite.
 
Dear Friends

This thread inspired me to go take a picture of my beloved as she rests in our garage this evening.

Notice our tiny Shop-Vac along the right wall.

Nice 2013 Odyssey EX-L!

A cheaper alternative to the HondaVac in the 2014 Odyssey Touring Elite is to buy a clearance 2013 Odyssey EX-L RES and leave a regular ShopVac in the trunk plugged into the 115 volt outlet. :)
 
Cool idea and selling point but I don't think it will get much use. It's not that hard to plug a vacuum in and use it, and still most people don't.
 
I love this: "The motor and dirt collection basket are in the inside bulkhead just behind the left right wheel." Fire the proof reader or actually hire one in the first place.:)
