Some Bugs - But Good
The check engine light kept coming on (Which does not mean much in current automobiles). After three trips to the dealer they finally changed out the entire computer mother board and fixed the problem. Other than that it is an excellent car with great looks and lots of power. After test driving the Highlander all the other SUVs seemed to drive like U-Haul trucks. Definitely get the color coded fender wells, chrome tube step rails, and spoiler, or the truck will look like a minivan.
best in class
drove both 4 & 6 cy., and chose the 4 for gas mileage. It's fine for majority of driving, but if you ever have to stop on an incline, and then start uphill again it may take you to Christmas to get to the top! I test drove Explorer, Pathfinder, CR-V, Santa Fe, Escape, and Jeep Liberty. Highlander's quality far better than any of those. I have bought nine new cars in my life, and this was the most unpleasant transaction I've had. The dealership was the most impersonal, uncaring, arrogant salesmen I've ever dealt with, especially AFTER the sale. Wouldn't return phone calls.

Solid Crossover Vehicle
The HL has pretty well met my expectations; it has a clean classic styling, a powerful smooth V6, great handling/breaking and no noticeable body roll, almost car like ride. The interior is comfortable with high seating positions and good visibility. There is plenty of storage throughout the vehicle with easily foldable rear seats with good cargo space in return. Overall the term CSU (Crossover Sport Utility) applies more to the Highlander than SUV, which is fine by me.
great car/suv
I have had this suv for almost one week, I was looking at the Madza Tribute and the Isuzu Rodeo.This is by far a superior suv to the above two. The ride is incredible and I got a great price, even under the price on Edmunds.This is like riding in the Lexus RX300.
Highlander: you got to feel the ride...
I live in Michigan, one day decided to visit a friend in Virginia. The drive was very comfortable. Didnt even feel that drive was for 16 hours. love the smoothness, style, and quality of the car.
