My salesman called me a couple weeks ago to see if I was interested in a 2018 Highlander. Told him no. I only have 44,400 kilometers on my 5 year old 2013 Highlander and it will do unless I give up towing a boat. Then a nice new RAV4 truck or a Subaru Forester will take care of my needs. I know a couple of guys with that Subaru model, and they love 'em. The RAV4 rates a bit more reliable and I'm not sure if I'd like the CV transmission...otherwise the Forester would probably be at the top of my list. I was thinking of getting my wife a Subaru Forester when she wanted to get a new car last year, but the Toyota dealer won out because his store was close-by. |

I can walk to either but the Toyota dealer is closer. They have a shuttle service if the weather is bad, I'm in a hurry or I just feel lazy. Last week our Highlander was in to get the passenger side and hood painted because of a Christmas Day high wind event that bombarded us with roof shingles. Insurance provided a vehicle for the week. I had asked for a Forester but they wanted to give me a Nissan Pathfinder as an equivalent replacement. I wan't planning any towing so I said no sir. Ended up with a Ford Edge, which didn't impress me much. |

Ended up with a Ford Edge, which didn't impress me much. Ihave one and I like it. Just as comfortable as my Lincoln but it sits much higher. Kind of important for us old folks. -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

The strange thing is he says he likes the Jeep better than his new Caddy. That would be an interesting trade. Maybe not that unusual tho. I traded a Corvette in on a Jeep. |

My daughter just got rid of her little Jeep Liberty in favor of a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. Thing is loaded with every option imaginable ... too much, IMO. But, it's not bad for a Fiat. |
