It's Not a Station Wagon!

Had been driving Volvo XC70s for the last 13 years, and got tired of the station wagon styling, but wasn't willing to go to an SUV or mini-van. Loved the Venza the first commercial I saw. Finally found a slightly-used (2,300 miles) 2010 fully loaded, including navigation. Have had the car for 10 days and love it. It has great styling and is fun to drive. Ride is a little bumpy at times due to the 20" tires, but my XC70 had a similar feel. It feels very stable on winding roads. I haven't driven it at night to see how the auto dimming headlights work, but they seem like an interesting concept. Have already made one trip to the plant nursery and came home with a full load- easy loading.

If you bought your previous vehicle five years or more ago, you will find the Venza a major step up in security and comfort. As a package, the multiple air bags, stability control, AWD, and crash scores top anything one could have bought, at any price, just a few years ago. Dual climate control, exceptionally well lit info displays, sound system, seating, and navigation system provide excellent comfort. This is a quiet car that gives one a feeling of confidence in a variety of driving conditions. We looked at Lexus RX350, Acura MDX, Audi Q7. Venza is a newer platform and many, many thousands less with competitive handling and all the important comfort features.

We had the car for 4 years and 1 month over 89,000 miles. We averaged 22K miles per year, never had any issues at all, only replaced tires and battery. We got combined 25.6 mpg on the original Bridgestones, harder riding tires. Replaced with Dunlop tires, then dropped to a combined 24.7 mpg, but it was a much better and smoother riding tires, worth losing 1 mpg. The car was always a pleasure to get on the road and travel and vacation in.

It was a good car for the first few years. But its had alot of weird things replaced also. $1600 bill = steering column at 55,000 miles. Its ate through 3 alternators so far. Each repair bill being $700 due to the big V6 engine and weird alternator placement. The 3rd one just crapped out today. Kind of why im writing this review. $750 bill = Oil cooler sprang a massive leak at 140,000 miles. It happened while driving home and didnt notice until we got home and seen the trail of oil.. After some research, Toyota released a extended warranty on the oil coolers for the 3.5 V6. Most consumers suffered blown engines because the leaks are so massive your oil will drain in minutes (my warranty was expired by months... of course). The wheel bearings are on the way out, which will be $500 possibly more if the wheel hub is bad too. I really thought Toyotas were built to last, it is a strong car do not get me wrong. Ive taken it across the USA a few times. But everything with this car is expensive to replace. If my credit was better, the thing would've been traded by now. But im stuck with the money pit. At 145,000 miles today. *Still trucking along at 160,000 miles" no issues since then

After 1 month of ownership I've experienced no mechanical problems. Everything works as designed. The interior is of good quality and the outside design is progressive. The seats are comfortable. The dashboard is well designed and bright, very easy to find everything. There are a few blind spots while driving in the rear but once you get use to them you make accommodations and understand what needs to be done.
