 Detailed review:

The handling and performance is very good states my wife who who is the primary driver and shuttles our kids to all of their functions. The third row seat is a plus for us coming from a Toyota Seinna for 5 years. It took us one month of solid research to locate a Highlander with the options that were important to us and not to have to pay for alot of additional options we did not want. The available configurations were either $35k to $42k, we finally located one with a MSRP of $33k 80 miles away. I am writing this review while sitting in Armstrong Toyota Service Department in Homestead Florida having them check out the source of the poor milage and the radio programing that was not programmed correctly (no SAT function). So far the Service Manager is telling me that I will have to drive the vehical for over 1000 miles before the engine reaches a decent average miles per gallon. I will do a follow-up at that time. I think it is untrue but will be none bias at this point.

CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
Why our customers love our dealers...
"I purchased a vehicle that has just been released to the market within the last 60 days. Most dealers were selling these at MSRP or above, but this dealer was willing to work with me on price, gave me a fair trade-in on my used car, and also was very pleasant to deal with from negotiation through vehicle delivery."
