Great Luxury Mid-size SUV for the price!
I test drove a few other comparable SUV's and the highlander was the most luxurious inside verse the Honda's Pilot/Nissian's Murano; furthermore, the SUV drives very quietly...like a car. The interior of the Highlander is very similar to the Lexus SUV-300 except the Lexus has more of a electronic dash, and obviously...the Toyota's price is a lot less.
Great Product, but Poor Service
I picked the Highlander and love it. I drove around in my brother's X5 for a month, but the Highlander with it's price makes it all better. As for Toyota Service.... Service guy at the dealership told me he deals with "reality while the sales guys tell me fantasy." The car is missing a part and had a scratch upon purhcase. They didn't tell me that I can only bring it in on Tuesdays to get the paint fixed. I've been to the service department 3 times now. I don't think I'll ever buy another car from Dublin Toyota again. But the product is excellent.

Lemon. Well almost.
At 13000 miles, cheap interior started making noise. Globe compartment rattles, the clicking noise from passenger door, anoying rattle from the driver's side rear door, and ticking noise from under the hood (plastic trims that holds the windshield). They are all snap-on plastic pieces. Futhermore, the engine light and VSC light come on and stay on. Also, a few times, as I start the vehicle, the engine stalled. We I had a Ford Explore before this vehicle and I regret that I traded it in with this one at 70000 mi. What an expensive mistake I made... Sorry Ford, I will buy yours next again.
I have had it 2 Years
We have had our Highlander for almost 2 years now. It is an incredble vehicle. I drives like a car, handles like a car and accelerates like a car. We have not regretted this purchase for a moment.
Impressive!
Drive this thing long enough and you will swear you are in a sedan. Quiet, smooth, powerful, tight. No road noise...just the low hum of a wonderful V-6. Space is ample, driving comfortable. Classy feel on interior, even in non-limited package. Mileage so far has been so-so...but should improve as vehicle gets broken in. You will like this SUV...trust me.
