Helpful Expert Reply:
Your 2012 Honda Odyssey has a towing capacity rated at 3,500 lbs. With your passengers totaling 550 lbs, you will be just fine according to your owners manual if you have an automatic transmission cooler. If you don't have the cooler, I recommend adding the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets # D13503.
