Good Solid Vehicle

This was our family's third Toyota and we are pleased with the brand. We bought the V-8 in order to pull our pontoon boat. It is a good solid vehicle that offers a smooth ride. I especially like the remote rear window. I would have liked a third row seat but didn't like the fold-up configuration. I expected worse than average gas mileage since I owned an SUV before this one. However, I have yet to get even the 15mph listed on the sticker for city driving.

I bought my SUV in 2011 and it had 102,000. My truck now has 266,540 and still going. Simple maintenance upkeep and this vehicle has been great to me.

Performance and Reliability are perfect and it looks great, but I have found the Interior Design to be poor, the color is very light, the seating is not at all comfortable, the sound system vibrates in the seats when turned up. If you're packing to go away and you fill up the back, it blocks the radio reception because the antenna is on the back side window, so bring some CD's. Some more of the things I have found not to like is on the stick shift, 3rd is next to drive (same link) so you have to always remember to push it into drive or you'll always drive in third. Finally the third row of seating has no floor space for your feet, it is flat. Other then that it's Fun to Drive.
