#72 of 74 Crash test ratings by brikfrank Jan 20, 2009 (1:08 pm)
We are trying to decide on whether to buy a 2006 4Runner or a 2006 Highlander. Safety is my number one concern. After some research I am discovering that the Highlander received 5-star front end collision rating while the 4Runner is only received a 4-star rating...That being said, I find it hard to believe that if a Highlander and a 4Runner were to go toe-to-toe on a a collision that that Highlander would win. ?? Can anyone out there offer any insight on this? Replies to this message: mikevp (Jan 22, 2009 4:38 pm) nedzel (Jan 30, 2009 10:13 am)
