| Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Most comfortable long distance auto I've ever had.
Controls are easy to use.
A/C and heat are very efficient. Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Styling (improved in 2010); last row of seats need to be larger/deeper to be useful as seats except for my grandkids (4 & 8yrs).
The radio reception is poor, but, I attribute this to the in-side glass antenna. 2006 Toyota Highlander Review:
Overall this is great car. Purchased new in Jan.'06, I have 133K+ on it so far and have had NO mechanical problems. Just getting new timing belt and struts today. Get 22+ MPG on highway and with captains chairs the comfort is wonderful and plenty of room. |

| Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Nice ride, basic styling, acceptable fuel economy. Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Improve interior materials - everything is falling apart or beginning to show too much wear, the exterior paint job is horrible, a great deal of road noise due to overall vehicle quality. Driver's seat beginning to tear, dash beginning to show wear, doors so thin you can feel the radio vibrate at moderate sound levels...these things that should not be happening on a 3 year vehicle which cost close to 40K....very, very disappointed. This vehicle has been well cared for and pampered. Will never buy another Toyota product...just overall very poor workmanship and product quality for the money. 2006 Toyota Highlander Review:
Horrible. Don't waste your money on a Highlander if you want a quality vehicle....BUY EUROPEAN....they are the only ones that seem to know how to build automobiles anymore. |

| Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Versatility which is what I was seeking. Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Tires: Yes, the original tires wear out early but mfr does make good on pro-rated warranty. With research I found that these are tires designed to be soft and quiet to enhance the test drive of prospective buyers. Mfr was surprised I got as high as 40k mi on mine (50 k mi warranty). I replaced them with same because it was better buy and I have been happy with the traction.
Plastic Fasteners: Plastic deflector under radiator needs to be removed to change oil filter and the plastic fasteners holding it on break easy. Same goes for plastic cover in engine compartment.
Luggage rack: It will loosen enough to rattle and make noise yet the nuts for the cross bars are still tight. |

It's an overall good vehicle. My wife really wanted one but says it has began to loose it's appeal after driving my new lease (not a toyota). Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Highlander?
In my opinion still has typical boring toyota design, they seem to be using cheaper feeling materials, and very average road feel. Pricey for what you get, but resale should be top notch (people will blindly pay-up, like us). 2006 Toyota Highlander Review:
My wife had to have a toyota because when she was shopping all of her friends mentioned them. I felt, and now she also believes, that other brands have not only better values but also better vehicles. Overall it is a nice vehicle, but we haven't experienced the infamous toyota build quality or reliability. |

DVD/TV/GAME SYS. SUNROOF, TINTED WINDOWS, SNOW TRACTION, AIR CONDITIONER IS POWERFUL. ALLOY WHEELS Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Highlander?
Make the third row a little larger if you can and put air vent in the third row rear for a/c. Otherwise its perfect. 2006 Toyota Highlander Review:
We were surprised to see how much comfort and room the Highlander has. This is a for sure winner for us as a family car and long trips. I feel we made a wise decision on being able to save gas over other SUVs. We were also surprised to find that we were able to get this mini-SUV with a lot of optional equipment, including a dvd/tv/game flip-down sys. And perma plate for a low price verses the others. Again this vehicle rides smooth, quiet and comfortable. Thanks Toyota. From now on you??re our first choice. Thanks for all those air bags. |

A little larger cargo area in back. 2006 Toyota Highlander Review:
The Highlander has the "get up and go" I need for the mountain roads. The interior is "homey" and comfortable. With a quiet engine, you feel as if you are floating on the road. Traction is great!! Safety features that outweigh anything else I have owned!! A prevous owner of like vehicles, the Highlander is by far the best SUV I have owned. |
