Not a 'Toyota Guy', first one ever, first 'import' ever, but I love this car. Made in America: Check (Princeton, IN); Great Gas Mileage: Check (24MPG avg); Family Hauler: Check (3 Kids under 7). Went with the 4-Cylinder (Not hauling anything) and purchased after-market leather from the dealership. Looks great, feels great, and is much easier to keep clean with the kids. 6-Speed 4 Cyl is very peppy on the highway with superior low-end torque, and the mpg rivals the MUCH more expensive Hybrid. Cargo is very-skimpy with the third- row up, but when folded flat it's downright cavernous back there. Spacious seating for everyone - even 3rd row isn't bad. Hard to find flaws with this vehicle.
No frills, no headaches!

Ok, no Bluetooth and no NAV screen but if you need a reliable and spacious SUV to haul lots of stuff and provide a ride more like a sedan than a truck (think Mountaineer), this is a great vehicle. We elected the basic model simply because we have basic needs and don't use this for long trips (esp when there is a Lexus sedan sitting next to it). Without the frills you get more for your dollar and fewer headaches when repair bills pop up. No repairs or any shop time other than routine maintenance over the 8 yrs of ownership. Mileage is only 34k. No off-road action for these city folks. FWD provides good traction and easy steering also with our preferred Michelin tires. Get use to a jack rabbit start if you aren't used to electronic fuel injection because this mini-mighty 2.7 L engine is amazing. Plan to haul your Mother-in-law and her furniture back to the mountains with a U Haul in tow? You'd better get a V6 or V8 (depending on the size of your cargo). Despite the size of this SUV the power train and FWD are perfect for our needs.

Just traded an 2007 Acura MDX with a 2010 base 2.7 base Highlander with 3rd row. At first , i regret it. The Acura is so much fun to drive while the Highlanders including the SE's and Limited are sleepers and drove like Minivans. Recently, I installed a much better looking leather than the factory ones called Classic soft and had DVD with live TV called Flo-TV and this van has been amazing. We could watch ESPN, MSNBC, Disney,Nick Jr. ,MTV., abc, nbc, etc. This 4 cyl is high on low range torque and just as powerful as a V6. Great MPG and zero percent deal
I like it!

I bought the highlander about a month ago after doing my research on crossovers and SUv's. I chose the highlander after seeing all of the wonderful reviews it had. I am very pleased with my decision although I do believe as with other people there could be a few added upgrades on these vehicles. I purchased the 4 cyl and average about 28 mpg highway going about 60 mph. I'm very satisfied with my choice.
Good, solid Auto-Just the right size

Since my 2002 Highlander with 183,500 miles needed some major repairs, I decided to trade it in on the 2010 model. My 2010 is just the base model with a 4 cylinder engine, front wheel drive. This engine is a bit larger than my other model, so the extra pep is nice, ride is good, interior is nice and comfortable. This physical size of the Highlander is just right, not to small, and not too large. The engine is a bit noisy at times, and I hope the 6 speed transmission last like my 2002 model. I change my own oil & filter religiously at 3500 miles, and the only thing I do not like about this new engine is the oil filter, it is a messy process.
