Best road trip SUV ever

Reliable, roomy and sporty. 4wd was the kicker. It was great for transporting lots of people with lots of stuff. No matter the terrain we always got to our destination and felt very safe in our highlander.

Perfect family vehicle. Very reliable.

Used for transporting the family with kids around town to local sporting practices, games, etc. Fit everyone and everything comfortably with room for friends also. Took it on family vacations and never had an issue.

The car is very reliable and fun to drive .

We like the vehicle very much and might buy another one maybe? The reason I say maybe is because I took it in to San Luis Obispo Toyota dealer will it was still under warranty, I bought it from them, to talk to them about the paint job going bad. He said there is nothing wrong with toyota?s paint. Not true . It has been fading bad year by year. It?s painful to was it seeing this happen.

Great family vehicle!

Perfect SUV for a family. Good points: comfortable cruiser, very reliable, great snow car. Bad points: mileage low 20's around town. Third row seat is kids only.

Drove off lot today

Been looking around for a few months for a good reliable vehicle. Stopped by Mcminn Motors in Athens, Tn. Great people to deal with, not pushy salemen treated us great. Will be going back to my son a car.

It's a great SUV, so easy to drive

Love my Toyota highlander it's safe, easy to drive has plenty of room for the family or friends I can have the car to seat up to 7 passengers that the seats go up and down very easily, and I love all the room in the way back be it for luggage a trip to Costco you name it. Plenty of cup holders air conditioning for all around the car, I haven't had any problems with this SUV I just love it

one on the best SUV'S

i think that this car is one of the best suv's avaliable. the fact that it is 2008 and better than some 2015-2017 suvs is just one reason why its a reallt good car.
