I purchased my Highlander in November 2009. 130k miles later and she still drives like she did off of the lot. Plenty of cargo space to accommodate our family of 4. Enough acceleration to make merging onto any freeway a breeze. It's averaged around 20 mpg. The interior of the car has held up very well. Plenty of room and head clearance (I'm 6'3"). Quiet and soft ride. It handles much like a Camry. We've had no problems, other than the tires wearing out at 30k miles. Put some Michelin tires on and they have had limited wear after 40k miles. Full brake job completed at 60k miles. Battery lasted 6 years. I do wish it had an outside temp reading on the dash. The 3rd row is very cramped, and hard to get to, but we don't really need it anyways. The car feels like it could go another 100k miles, no problem.

Bought this Toyota Highlander New - looked for a 7 seater SUV for our family of 5 for 8 months. Ended up with this and am very satisfied. Can only say this is a great vehicle. Wish the gas mileage was a little better but still it's an SUV. I have three young kids and they all fit well with room to spare. Love this car. I also plan on keeping it for 10 years.

Toyota dependable and plenty of zip with the V6. 8 years and 145k miles later and I still love it enough that when looking at new cars I will only replace it with another Highlander. It has survived three boys, towing utility trailers for jet skis, kayaks, mulch and more. I only have three complaints. The front door arm rests have small plastic supports that broke. The third row seat has virtually no leg room and too much plastic on the bumper. I miss real bumpers. My only major repairs out of pocket are a water and fuel pump both after 130k miles. Recalls were accelerator and window motor. On long trips I used a Yakima topper. The five us fit comfortably even as adults with the back seat for one person stretched out along the seat. Our trips are 12 hours one way to visit my family. Drives and parks easily like a car, but love the visibility of being a little higher and ability to carry toys and do yard work. Love it so much I kept it and bought a 2018.

Months of research and test drives came down to Flex vs. Highlander. Went with Highlander largely due to more conservative styling. Extremely quiet, comfortable car. Black after-market leather looks sharp with silver exterior. Great visibility, light steering, easy to drive. Factory tires seem questionable, prone to slipping under even light acceleration. Ride can be a bit bouncy, but overall a very refined, quality vehicle.
Cargo space?

Can't tell you how Toyota measures cargo space, but, they must not use the standard formula of W x L x H. The stated 95.4 cu in is grossly overstated: Measuring w/ back seats down, from the tailgate to back of front seats, from the roof to the floor (top of lowered seats), and, from the widest width, I come up with 70" x 34" x 42". Totaling 99,960 cu in. Divided by 1,728 cu. in. that make a cubic foot, I come up with 57.8 cu ft. If the driver and passenger are cargo, that might make the difference. Measuring the same area on the Honda Pilot, I come up with 74 cu ft plus about 1 1/2 feet under the back mat. And, the seats all lay flat. Unlike the Highlander.
