Well…..long story short. Sold my beautiful 2022 sports car and bought this sweet old girl with 185,000 miles under her skirt. I needed to travel from Houston Texas to La Paz Baja Sur Mexico. I bought from an owner who had a 6 inch file of every oil change, battery change my, break job, etc. (you get my drift) for $3500. Sweet. Put in a new battery, new tires, new break job, tinted windows, and I was ready to go. I’m a senior, single female driving with 3 dogs driving through long stretches of deserted highway through Mexico. I did not need any dumbfuckery from my car. Damn, if that sweet old girl drove so smoothly like rocking a baby. And this was in 112 degree heat for 1500 miles roads and dust from hell. Went off road to visit beaches and tiny villages . That sweet Highlander got me back safe and sound, too. Now have 210,000 miles on her. Went and got her maintenance done and the mechanic says she’s still very sexy. Now, my sweet suv and I are going camping with my dog.

This is my first SUV. Before it, I owned a 2000 nissan quest. I'm trully in love with this vehicle. The suspension is so soft when going over the pothole filled roads of New York streets. It has a decent amount of power and more trunk space then I can ask for. After I let some friends drive it they fell in love with it as well and bought their own. Now there's 3 of us :)

Steering is very stiff at highway speeds causing the feeling that it has locked up, and trying to make a minor adjustment always results in an oversteer or over correction situation. The result is a weaving left to right as you travel the straight-aways. There is no room for any extra stuff in the front for the driver or passenger. Difficult to get the EPA rating of 24 Hghy.
Nothing like the Highlander!

I traded in a beautiful black Ford Explorer Sport because they're discontinuing the Sport model. I went looking one day at the Highlanders for the heck of it. About a week later I traded the Ford in for the Highlander. You know why? The Explorer for one thing had over 100,000 miles on it and it drove like a TRUCK I wanted a mid- size SUV that drove like a car and this does; believe me, it's awesome. It has the Camry frame and when I tell you it drives nice, I'm not kidding. It's absolutely wonderful and no comparison to the Ford Explorer Sport, you'll love it.
a quality vehicle

We did our homework on SUV's over a period of months & time & time again,we kept returning to the Toyota highlander. With the quality built into this vehicle,we can see ourselves holding on to this vehicle for a good 6 or 7 years or possibly longer.In other words,you get what you pay for.
