Highlander

We purchased a 2013 Highlander Limited. The ride is very smooth. We have made two long trips and has been roomy for the family of five. Gas milage has been impressive on the interstate at 25 mpg. So far this has been a great vehicle.

Great Family Vehicle

They don't get more reliable than a Toyota. This is our 3rd Toyota vehicle and it will not be out last. With 3 children and a 4th not far off, the 3rd row seating and DVD are definitely a must have. At 6'3", the Highlander is comfortable and has plenty of room for long trips.

Highlander, Best I've ever owned

Highlander is the best I've ever had. The last 4 cars have been Toyota Camry's, great cars. I love the highlander rides great sits a little higher. I have driven 1000 miles in the 4 days of ownership. the highest mpg was 27.2 with cruise set on 70. It is a great SUV. I'm loving it!

Best vehicle I ever had

I have owned vehicles for 50 years; several different types, and finally, I believe I have owned the best ever for me and my wife. We had a MiniVan for the past 8 years and it worked well for us as we are retired. But my son gifted us Toyota Highlander Limited for our 50th Wedding Anniversary, and I tell you, it was a wonderful gesture, and a marvelous vehicle to own. Smooth ride, easy cornering, loads of electronics (more than the earlier spacecrafts), and since I am hearing challenged, I wanted the noiseless drive of this SUV. I got the blue metallic as the trim looks best in dark blue. I took 6 relatives on a long drive and all felt comfortable with the seating, the music, airconditiong etc. People at our gym come up to inspect it and at least two will be buying new ones. I luv this SUV and since we were getting the final vehicle we will own, we are in our 70.s, this will last us all the remaining years. Way to go Toyota.

Love my Highlander

I turned in a 10 yr. old Highlander, that I loved, for one that I will love even more. I just hope this one is as reliable as the last.

Love. This. Ride

Researched this category extensively and went with the Highlander due to Consumer Report reviews, Cars.com reviews, and rental experience during vacations. Love the ride, love the electronics.

My favorite car

This is my second highlander that I've owned and I am very satisfied with what it has to offer. I never have any problems. It could be a little bit better on gas but maybe next time I will go with the hybrid. Overall I love the highlander and I'm ver satified with it.
