Comfortable ride doesn't sacrifice control Interior tech and storage solutions Feature-per-dollar value ❤

[@kellyduncan5098]

I have a 2024 lx seat package carnival. I love it. I have 3 kids and it’s perfect. Tons of room in the trunk. I’ve been driving it since august 28th of this year. Only feature I wish I had but don’t is automatic lift gate. But no the biggest issue.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Glad you like it! Awesome! Was the video helpful at all?

[@Petalsandpups122]

Great video, thanks!

[@VagabondBuilds]

Yes! Glad we can be of help!!!

[@LiaGoldie]

Great review, thanks! I'm researching for my next dog car, this looks awesome! Lots of cargo space and can remove seats, perfect.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Glad we can be of help! Thank you for support. What part of the video helped you the most?

[@LiaGoldie]

my requirements are a bit different to normal lol. I look for cargo space, ability for seats to fold flat or be removed, air con in the back. Deciding between this or a large SUV@@VagabondBuilds

[@andystuder8084]

Great Video!

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thanks! What was most helpful?

Nice Review , thanks

Just bought one today.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Nice!

[@afzalshaikh2128]

Great review. Was thinking of Grand highlander but the space in this carnival huge. I guess nothing compare to a minivan, especially this 8 passenger

[@VagabondBuilds]

I have to say I agree. These new minivans coming out are beautiful

[@undercoverpotential]

What did you end up getting, Afzal?

[@afzalshaikh2128]

@@undercoverpotential for now a used Toyota Sienna. With rates and inflation going crazy I will live with a car I can buy in cash.

[@davidkeenan7275]

Can I make a small camper van , was looking at the Ford Transit Connect. This may be smaller but looks like it could work.

[@VagabondBuilds]

This might work, you never know until you try it 😊

[@nothumbs12gaming79]

Very good video on the Carnival, nice job.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thank you and appreciate the compliment!

[@andystuder8084]

Should have a spare tire . I have a 2021 Sedona and it’s located in the second row on the right side underneath. Maybe the same spot?

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@robanderson3944]

I just bought one today and I love it!!

[@VagabondBuilds]

What is your favorite part of the car?

[@JorgeDiaz-id1jo]

Any complaints so far?

[@Winterly6]

Oh man, I just got mine today

[@erichurst2496]

7:35 The manual shows that the spare tire is tucked under the second row seats under the van.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Yes you are so right!

[@azaelames5309]

I was about to start looking at another minivan because of this statement haha. Also, second row seats in my Sedona can be positioned forward and upright to get in easier, not like the video guy went into the 3rd row.

[@Calvin_lifecoach]

Thanks for the review, I have just noticed the 3 rd row not having the head rest? Is it true or it is hidden up?

[@VagabondBuilds]

They do have the head rests. They just weren’t up.

[@savioceg]

This is LX with a package added to it.LX does not come with power sliding doors or heated seats or usb ports on the third row . Pls make a note of it

[@VagabondBuilds]

Will do next time

[@seatime674]

My dad has the '22 LX and does have the power side doors but not the power hatchback

[@richardc1409]

The base LX trim does come with power sliding doors.

[@rayleung7668]

Does LX equip with keyless entry and start? Thank you

[@VagabondBuilds]

Yes, I believe the LX should come standard with those two options from what I believe.

[@rayleung7668]

@@VagabondBuildsthank you

[@johndonabie5150]

Probably going to go with a Highlander now.

[@VagabondBuilds]

What is the reason for your choice?

[@K8B324]

Great video thanks; Heated Seats?

[@VagabondBuilds]

I believe no heated seats on LX trim.

[@K8B324]

And EX I assume there is?@@VagabondBuilds

[@rockerchick2121]

My Lx has heated seats

[@richardc1409]

The LX trim has heated seats if you opt for the “seat package” option.

[@scubatom8232]

Does it have adaptive cruise control?

[@VagabondBuilds]

Yes.

[@raymondwong7674]

Hybrid willbe a big plus

[@VagabondBuilds]

Yes. Are you seeking to buy one in hybrid ?

[@johndonabie5150]

I was almost set to buy this vehicle; until I found out it doesn't have all-wheel drive as an option.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Oh wow. Interesting

[@zdzislawmeglicki2262]

It's nice but not without shortcomings. The engine could do with being hybridized and all wheel drive would be desirable too.

[@VagabondBuilds]

I’m sure these will be offered in future

[@zdzislawmeglicki2262]

@@VagabondBuilds There's talk of a hybrid engine for the Carnival, yes, but not AWD. I think, if you want AWD, they'll direct you to something like Telluride.

[@stantheman2194]

be careful what you wish for.............more moving parts = more problems!@@zdzislawmeglicki2262

[@thefpvlife7785]

The poor tow rating on this engine of only 2,500 lbs was a deal breaker for me. The same engine in the sorento tows 5,000lbs. I just don't get it.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Can come down to suspension

[@justacinnamonbun8658]

3500 lbs. is the tow rating. Telluride is 5000 lbs. The Carnival is a minivan after all, don't know how many V6 minivans are rated to tow more than 3500 lbs.

[@VagabondBuilds]

@@justacinnamonbun8658 Thanks for the info

[@zjones9876]

No locking glove box?

[@VagabondBuilds]

No lock on glove box.

[@zjones9876]

@@VagabondBuilds I just don't get that. I understand cost cutting but that just seems a bad place to do it. my 2015 Sedona has a locking glove box

[@jondan3798]

your title says 2024 but the chapters show 2023

[@VagabondBuilds]

It is a 24. Sorry for the mistake

[@uoila]

@7:40 you stated that there is no spare tire. That is untrue. I have this model and it is mounted under the vehicle.

[@VagabondBuilds]

I was wrong. I’m there is one. Thanks!

[@anon82037]

There is a spare tire under right passenger seat.

[@VagabondBuilds]

Thank you for the correction!

[@JesLambrot]

What's up with those shorts?

[@VagabondBuilds]

Trying to buy some ? Lol

[@xssfun]

Spare tyre is underneath the body.

[@VagabondBuilds]

You are right!

[@detailsmove]

USB-A is a big disappointment

[@VagabondBuilds]

Why so?

[@nickmontroy8262]

@@VagabondBuilds those are old USB-A ports and charge at 5 volts and about 2.4-4.5 watts. USB-C is the new standard form and charges at 20 volts and 18-100 watts.Basically usb-c charges MUCH faster and usb-a is just an old tech in a brand new car when devices are quickly moving to USB-C.

[@richardc1409]

⁠@@nickmontroy8262these ports are not charging at 2.4-4.5 watts. I don’t have a measuring tool, but it’s charging fairly quick. USB-C is just the form factor, the wattage can be limited based on the cord, plug, etc. It’s not the end all be all.

Look under the car you’ll see the spare tire

Yes we agree! Near the passenger rear door under the car.
