Used 2002 Toyota Highlander Consumer Reviews
Highlander On Target for Everyday SUV
The Highlander Limited V6 mimics the Lexus RX300 in many ways but more reasonably priced. Comfort and build quality are top-notch. More usuable storage than the Lexus. Drivetrain and ride are similar to a Camry, not like a typical SUV. Exterior size is about the same as a Honda Accord, which makes it easy to maneuver, park, and fit in your garage. The Limited is missing some things that would be expected on a vehicle over $33K, specifically steering wheel mounted audio controls. The stereo is first-rate, however. We've had the Highlander only a month but it is great and deserves serious consideration for SUV buyers.
Love the car
I have no complaints at all. Car is quiet, comfortable, and has tons of power.

Swan Lake
This truely is a dream like machine. Perfect quality, not a single blemish, not a problem in the 1st 6,700 miles we have driven, great snow traction, a head turner as you drive, a joy. Interior, console and trim are what you expect in a pricier Lexus. I read that Toyota uses the same suppliers as the Lexus. Our choice between the roomier Acura MDX ($3K more) and Highlander. Our Honda Accord experience was so bad that we decided go for the Quality leader. MDX reviews say Transmission Clunks and windows/sunroofs leak. I am glad we stuck with Toyota.
AWESOME SUV
Test drive the six and the four cylinder. The six cylinder is definately the choice model. It has been about a year since i picked up the 2002 Highlander and it has been perfect. Smooth and powerful v-6, comfortable interior, great handling for Suv and good gas milelage. Everything you need is a mid-sized Suv.
Another Toyota Winner
I was a little apprehensive about the Highlander at first - but after 6 months of driving this vehicle is a real winner! I know it's a SUV that that will never see more than a dirt road but it doesn't need too. The majority of the SUV buyers over pay for off-road capabilities that they never use. Stop pretending and save some money.
