Love my highlander

My highlander is very reliable and dependable. It has taken me everywhere with safety. I keep it maintained and it has longevity. It’s made very well and shops that work on it are able to service it easily.

2005 Toyota Highlander

Excellent performance, comfort, and very dependable. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone. It has required low maintenance and I've only had minor repairs. It has been everything I needed in an SUV. Thank you, Toyota!

Best overall car I’ve ever had

Sure footed in winter, a vehicle I can always count on. This is the best and most trustworthy car I’ve ever owned . You would never know that this car is 14 years old. Perfect size for all -efficient to run. Easy on maintenance.

2005 Toyota Highlander LE

This is the most comfortable, responsive, and dependable car that I have ever owned. I have rented other makes and models over the years and have driven several other Toyota models. In my experience, this particular Toyota is great!

Trouble Free / Versatile

This is my second time around with Toyota’s Highlander. V-6 powerful. Rear 3rd bench seat folds away for great cargo area. Rear seats fold away seamlessly to make everything behind the front seats to be wide open storage/cargo. Low maintenance; just routine brakes, oil, tires...a great car; I call it a truck!

2005 Toyota Highlander

Love it, love the brand. Fantastic, solid, dependable car even after 13 years. Would recommend the Toyota brand and the Highlander. Handles great in the snow, rain and other types of weather, V6 engine so it is spunky on the road.

the best

Won't ever give it up I have used it to move all 3 of my kids to college and back over the last 14 years. Its been a workhorse allowing us to meet our gardening needs. And the most important aspect is that the Highlander gives us a quality ride with a feeling of safety on the highways

my Toyota Highland

We have had this vehicle since late 2004, purchased new 2005 model. This car runs great, handles well , and we have had no serious issues with it. It is garaged at all times, and it is not driven a great deal.

Wonderful vehicle

I bought the vehicle used in the fall of 2009. My cousin had to sell it because of health reasons. It only had 14,000 miles on it, and was practically new. I had a mechanic check it and it was in excellent condition. I've had no problems with it, other than having to get used to a wind noise - the reason for it couldn't be determined, and now I hardly notice it.

LOVE MY HIGHLANDER

I needed a car with 3 rows of seat (not all the time, but every now and then) and my husband didn't want a van now that our kids are older. It has run really well. I purchased it used with 90K miles on it and now it has 190K and doing well. I like being a little bit higher than a sedan and not quite as large as some other vehicles to park. I LOVE IT!

I love my Toyota Highlander. My husband bought this car for me 3 years before he passed away. That’s why it is so special to me. Never had any problems with it and I keep it maintained , washed and car pool my grandchildren to school and sports events.

Outstanding service

Honest, knowledgeable folks who take care of their customers! While they have your vehicle they will give a look over to be sure there are no mechanical or safety issues that need attention. If so, they let you know. I like that kind of service!

If there were something better, we'd buy it. It tows my boat, it hauls a lot of stuff, high visibility, but not too big; good visibility out of it, no troubles

its great, like it better than the new models. efficiency at 22 is marginal, but we need its capability.
