2012 Highlander replaced by 2017 Highlander

This issue of Highlander 'feels' like a larger car despite it's great handling, eagerness, and power.
It is quiet and comfortable and gives the driver the feeling of a competent, smooth, ride.
Although it is my wife's car, I have driven it for about 1,000 miles and like it better than my Tundra for trips. Imagine.
Being of the 'older' group, the thing is a bit too 'geeked-out' for what I feel comfortable driving, but I am learning to get along with all the options and special attributes.

Highlander

A very well made and designed SUV. It has a lot of room for a "big guy" like me driving. When you close the doors, it just sounds "solid". I am very happy with my purchase. It's a fun vehicle to drive!

Excellant Safety Features
by ConnieP

on Thu Mar 30 2017
I feel safer driving this car than any other I have ever owned. It is loaded with the latest high-tech beeps and plugs. The whole car is very user-friendly. We are dog lovers and I secretly wanted a back hatch that opens separately from the tailgate. The Highlander has that feature. When it gets hot in Austin I am sure our doggies will appreciate the extra cooling.
Oh yes, it is also very beautiful. I don't buy new cars often. This one definitely is a gorgeous vehicle. It is predawn gray but has a hint of ash brown.

My first Highlander was still going strong after fourteen years. My 2003 Highlander never required my more than tires, batteries and the required timing belt replacement. It was absolutely best car I ever owned.

We love our Highlander! It is the most comfortable vehicle we've ever owned. It is a dream to drive. I like the way it handles. It is spacious and will be an excellent travel vehicle.

Any highend Toyota holds value & is dependable.

I had a 4Runner with ZERO problems, totaled in a head-on; wear ur seatbelt, it saved me. It being my first Toyota, I was determined to buy another SUV and the Highlander Ltd. suited both me & the wife. And all the safety features, WOW. Safety was paramount and staying with Toyota was my goal. I purchase the 2017 because it had 11 miles on it, and the price was much better than a 2018. Since I'm gonna keep the car for at least 10 years, I also purchased the 10yr-125K miles extended warranty plan. Retired and plan on doing a lot of USA and Canada travels. Whoohoo! Hear we go.....

Very reliable vehicle but an absolute bore to drive. My 2016 Honda Odyssey EX-L minivan is a race car compared to this and we all prefer driving it to the Highlander XLE

beautiful blue highlander

I was looking for some very particular characteristics for this car. I found the right size, seating, engine size, tech gadgets, colors inside and out, safety features, sound system, navigation, cameras. It was actually pricey for me, I had to go over budget to purchase it but I know that it is very good quality.
