2004 Toyota Highlander Limited, 3.3L V6
Absolutely reliable. No unscheduled maintenance in 115,000 miles. We got 12 years out of the original battery---which is unbelievable, especially since the kids tried to kill it twice by leaving doors ajar overnight so the dome lights ran it down! After a day on the slow charger each time, that battery gave us several more years of service before really wearing out. 7 passengers are no problem if those in the back seat aren't taller than 5'8" or so. Would like to get a few more MPG, even though this is competitive w/other brands and models of this type. Best was 23 MPG on long road trip w/2 adults and 80 lbs of luggage/gear. Worst was 17 on short trips, all in town. Average 19 - 21.
