It's a Toyota... enough said.

This is a well built automobile. Comfort, style, and quality. Very impressed with the amount of space inside. Plenty of power, yet still economical to operate.

A Toyota lifer - this one is awesome for my age!

This car is so reliable and plush. It has everything a person could want in a car. Its quiet on the road, great sound system, plenty of leg room and cargo space.

Best car I?ve ever owned

This car?s ride was quiet, tight and comfortable. It was great at high speed; in heavy rain or in ice and snow. I never had a problem with but it was 11 years old and larger than what I now need. It had everything I want in a car, but lacked the latest technology.

I am very happy with my purchase.

The Highlander has a sun/moon roof, heated seats, and a backup camera which my last vehicle didn't have and it is also a V6 that surprisingly gets good gas mileage.

Comfortable, safe ride

Moved down from a Yukon XL. Like that we're still able to haul our boat & trailer as well fit a decent amount of stuff inside the vehicle. Better gas mileage than before!

2008 Highlander !! ++

Wow, love my Highlander. Growing family was in need of larger vehicle, I did not want a mini van so opted for a Highlander and could not be more impressed. Fold down 3rd row seats makes it great for grocery shopping and with the 3rd row in place great for the kids. Love the AWD has gotten me out of a few tricky situations!!

No issues at all this is the best car I?ve owned

This car is 10 years old and it?s still stylish inside and out! I will never buy anything other than Toyota. Reliability is superior to its competitors

Comforable, practical, stylish!

The 2008 Toyota Highlander that I test drove provided a smooth comfortable ride with the ease and practicality of an SUV hatchback as well as many luxury features such as navigation, leather interior, sunroof, backup camera, and beautiful wood trim finishes.
