    Both it with 12,500 miles. Could not be more happy. Quality, interior room, drives like a car, very smooth. It is really a solid vehicle. It inspires reliability bumper to bumper. My is dark blue (navy blue) and brings sun roof & Privacy Glass giving the appearance of semi luxury and cool fresh look to fit everywhere I go.

    had the highlander for almost a month now and continues to enjoy it. if you want an suv as your primary vehicle then this is an exact fit because it rides like a car for everyday driving and yet roomy enough for long trips during the holidays.

  • What a deal!! - 2003 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    This is an overall great vechile.A lot of bang for the buck and you get a lot of great features also. Toyota has a great powertrain warranty and a good bumper to bumper. Anyone who is looking for a great midsize suv then the Toyota Highlander is definiately the way to go.

  • Long Hauls - 2003 Toyota Highlander

    Only one problem with vehicle: the drivers bench seat is too short and causes extreme leg pain on an extended trip. I frequently drive for 10 and 12 hour stretches, and the bench does not provide enough support for me. I am 6 ft. tall, so I cannot imagine how a taller person fairs in this vehicle. Overall, the car has been trouble free.

    We like the vehicle overall, but expect a little more in a top of the line vehicle (have a Limited awd 6 cyl)

  • Usual Toyota Qaulity, BUT... - 2003 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    The Highlander is good-looking, peppy with the V6, nimble feeling, perfect height for us, roomy feeling, fun too drive. We really dislike the small unlit mirror in the sun visor of this $30,000 car. We don’t understand why Toyota wasted time putting electronics in the rearview mirror, including a compass, but then excluded the outside temp gauge. Soundproofing left plenty of room for improvement, hear lots of road noise. Even though based on Camry chassis, Highlander has relatively bumpy ride.. Gas mileage is poor. On a 200-mile round trip averaging about 68 miles an hour, we got slightly over 20 mpg after 6 months of driving.

  • I love my Toyota - 2003 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    I have owned alot of vehicles over the years as I usually upgrade every two years.I have never had a vehicle that I have enjoyed driving as much as this one. I love the way it handles especially in the snow. I live where we get an average of 120 inches of snow a year. I have had no problem with this vehicle on the snow or wet roads.

  • Best SUV - 2003 Toyota Highlander
    By -

    This car has the most room, the rear seats fold down FLAT, for animals, and it by far has the BEST, smoothest ride of any SUV on the market. Plus you get all the wonderful Toyota dependability to go with it!!

  • Glad I bought it! - 2003 Toyota Highlander

    Smooth, quiet ride, good gas mileage for an SUV type vehicle.
