Quiet and Comfortable

2019 Toyota Highlander LE Plus 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 8A)
We purchased a new 2019 Toyota Highlander LE Plus. We're enjoying the vehicle a great deal. We find it quiet ( the V-6 engine,and the low wind and road noise), with comfortable seats, both in front and the second row. We will seldom use the small third row seats, and with them folded down there is a lot of cargo room.
The body is tight and solid - rattle free- a big deal to me … in terms of enjoyment while driving. The ride is supple and reminds us of higher end vehicles. Our LE+ does not have "navigation", which caused so many complaints earlier this year, and we find all the other electronic "gadgets" working as designed. We are 83 years old, and fail to see the need of so many hidden features which require a very steep learning curve. The owners manual of hundreds of pages does little to clearly show and explain how to use them, and is filled with pages of useless instruction about dangers to life and limb if you operated the vehicle incorrectly. Instructions on how to access the multiple options often are so lacking in detail as to be useless. I find myself calling the dealership continually for tutorials, and I have a Master's degree!!
But the vehicle itself appears to be of high quality. On the highway at moderate speeds (65 - 70 max) the gas mileage is around 30 - 31, a pleasant surprise.
Long term reliability, or course, remains to be seen, but we anticipate a long and useful life.
Update: After 6 months and 4400 miles, the initial review still stands, and in addition I'd like to add that following a wheel alignment the stability and "going the way it's pointed" is much improved. I enjoy that, especially on longer trips. It's really a delight to drive only minimal steering corrections. I was a bit optimistic about gas mileage. It's about 28 at steady 65-70 mph, and about 19 around town. At a steady 80 it delivers 26mp gallon. Still a 5 star rating with me. Update: We've owned the vehicle a year now, with 10000+ miles on it, and it's "ditto" everything above. I have had two trips with 65-70 mph cruising speeds and obtained 30 mpg!! Very happy. Update: Now just two years old, with 18000 miles. "Ditto" to all the above. Absolutely love it. Still tight and solid, and can't overstate my enjoyment of the stable "goes where you point" it without steering corrections, trait.
