| Comments |
Favorite feature: |
Cab forward design. |
Least favorite feature: |
The mirrors should fold back when forced. Parking spaces are too small and mine are bent. |
Advice to buyer: |
Check recalls. Engine may fail due to sludge. Toyota is not admitting problem but supposedly will fix existing problems. |
Detailed review: |
Wind noise is noticeable but radio drowns it out. Although handling is adequate, it still is responnsive for most conditions. The front windown frames rattle which is annoying but I found that inserting a paper wedge between the window frame and dash clears that up. Overall, a very comfortable car. |
