I bought a 2006 Toyota Hybrid two years ago and I love it. The gas mileage is great especially in the city. I get around 30 miles a gallon and since I live in a city it saves me a lot of money. For a hybrid it has plenty of power and acceleration. It has plenty of room and a jump seat for two additional small children in the back. I like to fish and the room in the back is plenty for my fishing poles and tackle. It has a luggage rack for my cannon which is nice. It is a very dependable car. I have never had and major mechanical problems. The car drives well and it is fun to drive. The car has a bunch of cup holder in the front and the back. There are a few cons to the car. It is expensive compared to other vehicles in it's class. If you only roll down two windows at a time the car makes a funny sound and has weird air pressure. You have to roll down just one window or all four. The built-in navigation does not work that great. Lastly, the look of the Highlander is not great. Kind of a "weak chin" look to the car.
