saw a pearl white one as I drove by the dealer, looks very nice
airbalancer, you've been checking out vehicles in this category, I would like to know your assessment of this one as well. went to see one, and it was very nice, driving position was excellant( did not go for a drive), room behind the seat was also good, base model did not look to bad. But to spend $51gs on a load model , I dont know if I could. By the way who could fit in a RAVA 4, it just felt wrong in the drivers seat Holy cow airbalancer, were you partying early on October 17th?

By the way, "who" is correct (it is NOT "whom"), although it should have been preceded by a comma and the rest of the sentence is just plain wrong.  |

The sentence would have been a little better if the words "for me who"... would have been used instead of just "who". airbalancer, do you feel you're back on a school bench yet? |

Consumer Reports ranks 2008 Highlander No. 1
But 'recommended' tag is withheld under new policy
Ryan Beene
Automotive News
December 5, 2007 - 4:49 pm ET
DETROIT -- The redesigned 2008 Toyota Highlander scores No. 1 on the Consumer Reports list of top mid-size, three-row SUVs, but it doesn't get an automatic “Recommended” designation by the magazine in its latest issue.
The Highlander is the first vehicle to be hit by the magazine’s Oct. 16 decision to not automatically award the “Recommended” designation to Toyota vehicles.
The 2008 Highlander scored better than 13 competing mid-size, three-row SUVs to take the segment’s top spot in the magazine’s January ratings, but it was not officially recommended because “we recommend only models with sufficient data to predict average or better reliability,” David Champion, senior director of Consumer Reports Auto Test Center, said in a statement.
The Highlander received high marks for its ride comfort, quiet interior, refinement, power, fuel economy and second-row seat. It was criticized for a light steering feel, a lack of versatility in the third-row seat and for not being very agile.
In the past, Consumer Reports said it automatically gave the “Recommended” moniker to new and redesigned Toyotas based on the company’s excellent reliability history. If reliability of Toyota vehicles returns to “excellent” levels for a sustained period, Consumer Reports said it will resume automatic recommendations, according to a press release.The redesigned Highlander, nonetheless, finished at the top the list with a rating of 81.
Other vehicles tested in the January issue were the Buick Enclave, Ford Taurus X and Subaru Tribeca, whose ratings along with the Highlander were added to the magazine’s existing rankings of 10 other midsize, three-row SUVs.
The Tribeca and Taurus X got the “Recommended” nod, even though scores came in at 70 for the Tribeca and 75 for the Taurus X. The Buick Enclave also scored 75 in the latest round of testing.
Below the top-ranked Highlander, the Enclave placed sixth, the Taurus X took seventh and the Tribeca came in eleventh in the updated tests.
Other existing top ratings included the Acura MDX at No. 2 with a score of 80. The Honda Pilot was No. 3 with a 79 rating. |
