What do yall think? I actually like the concept. It'll more than likely never see production, but as odd as it is, I actually like it.

Neato. Though only fwd, I can get AT tires for the odyssey, so maybe we will!
I like the Toyota concept, sort of like those quigley 4x4 vans.

Nah, a lot of pickups these days (most of them) look either just as comically stupid or more so. At least there isn't a ridiculously sized grille and fake air intakes.

I kinda dig it
I looks more like an off-road SUV than All-Terrain Minivan.
Brovan. The mods make it look like a coal roller.
Interesting basic concept though.

I love how people keep saying things like this despite the fact that the grilles on all of these newer pickups are actually smaller than the heat exchangers behind the grilles.

There was a right way to do this, and that is not it.

You'll need snows for it if you want it to be decent in winter driving. Our 2008 Odyssey LX was terrible in the snow fitted with the OEM Bridgestone Turanzas and all-seasons I tried on it. IMO, it's more the profile of the tire on these vans that makes all seasons no good in the snow. With a set of snows it was remarkably better. I bought a used set of Blizzak WS4s and used them for several winters before trading-in the van and again selling the WS4s on CL. LOL.

I love it. Seems very cool, but probably not really going to be built in any appreciable numbers. Proves that Toyota ain't completely dead...

So you need all that 90-degree frontal area for proper cooling?
OK, I'll retract it. How about "ridiculously sized exhaust finishers, mirrors and fake air intakes" then?

Valid points, indeed.
Where the grilles are concerned, what other way is there to do it? I have 4 massive heat exchangers behind my grille. They need to catch as much air as possible.
