  BEWARE - 2003 Toyota Highlander
  By BEWARE - July 24 - 2:00 am

  Bought an 03 HighlanderV6.Replacing my loaded Mountaineer lease,I knew Id sacrifice some bells & whistles,but wanted a smaller SUV. Toyota makes a great safe car,I thought it was a no-brainer. Well,BUYER BEWARE!Dont drive over 38mph with the back window down or youll feel like your ears will explode.Worse than a plane.If this wouldnt bother you, then Id say its a nice choice.However,if you care about your kids or backseat passangers ears,I BEG YOU TO SEARCH FOR SOMETHING ELSE,or at the least make sure it comes w/a sunroof to slightly alleviate it. With the great ratings&reviews I thought Id be thrilled, but you live & learn. DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE!

  love my highlander - 2003 Toyota Highlander
  By daydreamerdee - May 31 - 10:00 am

  This is my first NEW car, and I am so proud I made such a good choice. I have had it for 1 month and love it. I dont like the tippy feeling when turning, but that is my only gripe. oh and also the price I paid...should have sent the guy back to the boss man 1 more time to get it down to where I told them when I first went in there. Other than that ...... I LOVE my new Highlander. SMOOTH.... Does the back window go down??

  relief to have a reliable car - 2003 Toyota Highlander
  By RVincent10 - April 30 - 2:00 am

  this vehicle is a wonderful blend of car and suv. having had a 97 ford explr xlt, there is no comparison. the ford was unreliable and required numerous repairs. once it died in busy traffic with an emissions failure. It also had a squeak and numerous rattles ... My 00 honda also has a rattle over bumps.. the highlander had a rattle when the sunroof was open, but once the luggage rack was adjusted and tightened it was gone. the highlander has better handling than the ford. Although it seems to roll abit on turns, if you push it and turn at a higher speed, it grips the road firmly and doesnt tilt much more than it did at lower speeds.

  2003 Highlander - 2003 Toyota Highlander
  By JEF - April 30 - 2:00 am

  After researching this vehicle online for many months, it was time to test drive one. We test drove an AWD, V6 with Sunroof and roof Rack System. The engine was very quiet for a V6 and had plenty of power as I took it on the highway. On the return trip, it was my wifes turn to drive. She liked that fact that she didnt need a ladder to enter the vehicle. The steering was responsive and the suspension was good on the frost heave encrusted roads. We had two of our children with us (15, 11 ) and they were comfortable in the back seats. The youngest trying every knob and button he could find! All in all, a pleasure to drive and is very quiet.

  MY Highlander - 2003 Toyota Highlander
  By Steve MY - April 1 - 10:00 am

  Before I bought this vehicle, I had never owned an SUV AND I was a lifelong Chevy man. When the boss (my wife) decided it was time for me to buy a SUV, I decided to test drive EVERYTHING in the price range we were looking for ($20,000-$30,000). Ikept leaning towards the Trail Blazer (or the Explorer, Grand Cherokee, etc). However, over a period of several months, I had to admit to myself that the Highlander was (in my opinion) consistently 1st or 2nd in every category I could think of. As a result I now find myself driving everywhere. Try it....youll like it!
