Plus the 2011 model has been increased to 271 HP. LOL!

The Sedona is my winter beater, or when I need to move something bigger than a shoebox.

And yeah, surprisingly it's easy to chirp the wheels, and it doesn't have any problem on hills or passing. I always thought it was kinda ballsy for a mini-van, glad to see I'm not the only one.
