WTB: Venza or 08+Highlander AWD

[browntown3]

Looking to buy a Toyota Venza or 08+ Highlander AWD versions only, miles are not an issue, want to spend less than 18k$ let me know if you're thinking of selling.

Had both in past...stick with highlander. The venzas fit and finish interior wise was terrible as time wore on. Loved my highlander and actually would get one again in a minute if I didn't love my 4runner more. Sometimes think about switching back but can't pull the trigger yet.

Thanks for the input, i myself im really trying to get my wife to like the highlander as much as i do but she is drawn more toward the Venza, i'll take either of them before i have to buy her a Ford Edge which is what she really wants lol.

We couldn't wait to turn in our venza when lease was up. Thank god wife was driving as she was more tolerant to the less than par build quality. Never would I look at one again.

Thats really suprising coming from Toyota, what types of issues were you guys having ?

Purchased a new 2013 Venza XLE AWD this past January... no issues at at all. A very quiet ride loaded up with some great options (roof, nav leather etc...). Wife had driven a bunch of other cars/SUVs before deciding on the Venza. The 2013 Edge SEL Sport was her second choice, but the Venza won out because it was easier for her to park and manuver in/out of the garage...
