The Best SUV
I tried many other SUV's like Pathfinder, Explorer and Passport before buying this great vehicle. This is oen of the best products from Toyota, It combined the ruggedness of a 4 Runner and comfort of a Camry. I really like my HIGHLANDER
Best SUV out there
Have the V6 4WD. An amazing machine!! Plenty of room for my 6' 5" frame. The ride is so smooth, if you were blind- folded you'd think you were in a luxury car. And, the safety is the best around (unless you have $50,000-$80,000 for the BMW X5). The gas mileage comes in just under my V6 Accord. Safety, great fuel economy, lots of space, great visibility all around. What more could you ask for? (And, a good price if you do your reseach and shop around a bit!!!!)

it's maybe Average
Average meaning I would not buy another one. At 75k miles it leaks oil and needs a rear seal ($3,000), it uses oil on the highway, it has an odd whistling noise that no one can find (when going against the wind on the highway), the gas mileage is NOT good. The only reason we still have it is because my wife likes it.
Time to get rid of this thing
I have owned my 01 Highlander for about 2 years. Overall it is an ok SUV, although my wife loves it. We bought it used with 45000 miles and it now has 113000 miles. We have had to replace the tires, brakes, and oxygen sensor ($200!). The heater broke and was stuck on hot for several months, the dealer told us it would cost about $1000 to replace the heater panel. After a long search I found where many others have had the same problem and fixed it. Turns out to be broken solder connections, I resoldered them and it now works for FREE! The rear axle is leaking fluid and was told by the dealer it was the axle seals...$350. Time to get rid of this thing!
