2008 Highlander Limited - Changing the clock

I completely agree, tourguide. Seven hundred bucks a month for a Toyota Highlander is absolutely nuts. That's BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus territory. Definitely pass on this "deal." Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum Read More...

Rent one. Drive it for a day or two. Two of my last three Avis rentals were base Highlanders. I am so happy I sprung for the Ltd. (over the base). After driving a 5-speed for most of my life, all automatics drive me nuts. Somewhere around 2004 Toyota seems to have added the downshift thing to their cars - both on braking and with the cruise control on. Both drive me nuts ... Read More...

Written by: rjwiser on Oct 20, 2008 10:28 AM

It was $36, 800 w/o the toyota financing incentive. I will probably be financing for 60 months, so the best rate I can get would be 2.9% through toyota. They offered to take $1500 more off if I went through another lender, since the the financing / incentive is either or. I failed to mention that MSRP on the this particular vehicle was $38, 800. Their invoice claimed ... Read More...

Re: rebates/incentives

Written by: 1headlight on Sep 29, 2008 02:20 PM

Hi, You might want to indicate what city you are buying in. Toyota Motors incentives can vary from region to region sometimes. Here in SoCalif, for the 2008 Highlander (non-hybrid) my guess it will remain $1000 cash rebate or 4.9% financing. I am hoping for more - something like $1,500. Toyota Corporate will not announce the new incentives in each region for a ... Read More...

Accidentally Opening Locked Doors From Inside?

Written by: 4wheelinit on Oct 12, 2008 05:38 PM

I just bought a new 2008 Highlander Sport. While I have seen many posts and discussions about the automatic locking features and how to change them or modify them, I have a question I haven't seen covered. I noticed that no matter how the doors lock (automatically, manually) and whether the vehicle is moving or not, I can still pull on the door handle and open the ... Read More...
