This is the most reliable vehicle I ever owned.

This is the perfect car for families. I did not regret getting this car with the Limited trim. Wonderful SUV.

Best Car Yet!

My Toyota Highlander was not my first auto purchase. I actually bought it on a whim but the longer I had it the more I loved it. The interior of this car is well designed with plenty of cup holders, USB ports and arm supports. I was happy with the power of the vehicle and it did well in winter too! Sound system was not too shabby and the back seats had plenty of leg room. Unfortunately I did not make any money off it when it sold but If I needed another SUV I would consider a second highlander.

Reliable and spacious car

This Highlander met all my needs but I wanted more! I thought I wanted it then I realized I wanted leather seats especially with having two little ones. It is spacious!

Highly Recommend

I think that overall you cant beat it. I have the Limited version and its luxurious, its big, it goes through snow no problem, fuel mileage is a little worse than anticipated but i think the newer ones are better on that. Looks sharp, drives well, highly reliable. One thing i would recommend is a better brake package if you do long distance or high speed driving, i put EBC on here and its near perfect now.
