Got it back after 9 days of driving a Highlander (nice ride btw) - was at Toyotas testing facility in Ann Arbor for emissions verification, got a couple hundred bucks , a free tank of gas and the loaner for the week.
Random thoughts/observations.
*The highlander is a minivan in disguise
* Having to disable the auto start/stop every time you get in gets old fast.
* The third row (like most) is useable except for the tiniest of humans or for the shortest duration.
*The power rear gate was handier then I thought, mainly when taking the dog places just press the button he jumps in, press again to close and never even have to walk back there!
*In town fuel economy was nothing to be proud of, only had it for 1 tank but it was reading in the 16's and I don't drive hard (but lots of short, start stops) and it was hotter then Satan's ******* here so AC always on.
Nothing about it wanted to make me run and trade in the 4runner even with a newborn BUT I will say it drive very "easy" around town compared to the 4runner however I would def. give other brands a chance if a 3rd row CUV was on my radar screen.
