I had been wanting to update to a SUV type vehicle. I got to looking around and found the Toyota Highlander. It had good reviews, and I already had a Camry and knew Toyotas were good. So I shopped around online and found a good price. I went to the Toyota dealership and test drove it. It handled well and got up to speed quickly. It has some pep in it. It was really comfortable and it has lots of room for me and my family. The backseat area was really roomy and comfortable. The 3rd row seat folds down for additional storage. It drives well. It is smooth and not a lot of road noise. There are a couple of blind spots, but I have found out these are corrected with those little stick on round mirrors. It has all the latest safety features including all the side airbags. It has several nice features including cruise control and touch screen radio and a navigation system. I have had it 2 years now and it has never had a warranty issue. Just routine service. The one draw back is that it doesn't get that great gas mileage. While it isn't bad, it only gets around 24 miles per gallon. .

I think that the Toyota RAV4 is a great car overall because of its excellent mileage and spacious trunk. However, since it is classified a small SUV, it is does not have a third-row seat. But, I still think it is an exemplary family car because it can house up to five people and has pockets on the back of the first row seat for children to put stuff in. The next point I would like to deliver is that the engine delivers good acceleration, and the engine does not make any engine strain noise on the city or the highway. The fuel capacity is 16 gallons, meaning that it can go for up to 750 miles without refueling at all. The top speed is rated at about 145 miles per hour; however, we usually do not exceed the speed limit of 80 miles per hour. The storage compartment is spacious and can house many of your stuff that you need to store somewhere in your car. The headlights are a complete redesign from the previous generation and look much more futuristic and can light up the road ahead very good. The aerodynamics of the car are very good for a small SUV, meaning that the air flows around very good around the shape of the car when you are going at high speeds on the highway. The brake are excellent, for example, whenever you are going at 40 mph on the streets and you see an upcoming street light, the brakes will respond very goodly due to the fact that he brakes are specially equipped with an upgraded suspension and an added stronger chassis to absorb any shock that comes to the tires of the car and the vehicle needs to regain its balance on the road.
