We love it!

We just bought our Highlander last month and we love it! It's so roomy and comfortable with plenty of storage space. It drives really nice. My ONLY complaint is that it's not good on gas.

So much more room than it looks to have.

I love this vehicle has room for my family and my wheelchair fits in the back with third seat down. Very comfortable. Took me some time to get use to how heavy it feels in comparison to my last vehicle.

Great Midsize SUV

Meets my needs. Not too big or too small. Roomy even when packing grandchildren. I like that it sets up high like a midsize truck

Great SUV!

Great car and loaded with safety features! Very comfortable inside, sporty and fun to drive while also being an AWD SUV that can move the kids and all of your stuff!

My 3rd Highlander

Love these cars. This is my third Highlander now. They’ve gotten rather boring to drive ever since they became more mass appeal SUVs but the reliability can’t be beat. Definitely worth the upgrades for the interior features. The main downside is that they have exploded in pricing although this is partly because there’s not another car company that can really compete with Toyota in overall dependability.

Love my Highlander

This Toyota Highlander Limited meets all my expectations. Drives smoothly, easy to handle and very comfortable. The interior has all the bells and whistles to accommodate your needs. Toyota is the best!

A very reliable car.

Love the bluetooth feature for handsfree telephone calls. 3 rows to accommodate all of my family (7 passenger), and makes it so easy for me to transport my decorations and xxxxxxfor my church events.

I love this car!

Love Highlanders. Perfect size to fit our needs. This car is so much quieter and roomier than our older model Highlander - many nice changes.

Solid, reliable, roomy and stylish.

Had 4 Expeditions prior to this Highlander. Was happy with my Expeditions, but I no longer needed a vehicle this large. The Highlander is just the right size for my passenger and cargo needs, with better handling, better fuel economy, and I love Toyota reliability. I've had several, and they have all been excellent.
