#1 of 2854 2006 Toyota Highlander by libertycat Jul 02, 2003 (9:45 pm)
This is the year the Highlander will be redesigned; it comes out in 2005 as a 2006 model. I hope it has a similar interior except with a lot more passenger and cargo room. Also, the styling needs to improve. Replies to this message: ram10 (Sep 11, 2007 10:04 am) qs933 (Sep 11, 2007 10:22 am)
#2 of 2854 Curtain Air Bags for 2004? by highlander7 Jul 03, 2003 (10:41 am)
Anyone know if curtain air bags will be available in 2004 Highlander or do we have to wait until 2005 or 06? Is Toyota aware that not have this safety feature is costing them sales of this model?

about either question but I imagine you will have to wait until model year 2006 to get them.
#4 of 2854 Curtain Air Bags for 2004? by highlander7 Jul 04, 2003 (6:03 pm)
libertycat,   Economically it makes sense for Toyota not to offer curtain bags until 05/06. The lost sales probably are not enough concern to cover the installation and design into the current vehicle.   Another vehicle I am considering in addition to the Highlander is the new 2004 Tundra. I would expect this new truck to have all the air bags available to the Sequoia.   thanks again for your reply....

If you are considering Tundra, perhaps you might want to check out the Nissan Titan as well, which will definitely be available with side curtains. On paper, this looks like the truck to beat.   ~alpha

"On paper, this looks like the truck to beat"   Key words there, "on paper". However, in person, it's so ugly I want to "beat" it with a stick! All domestic branded trucks (Chevy, GMC, Dodge, Ford (both 03 and 04)) and Toyota top the Titan in looks.   I could care less how much HP the Titan has because I could never live with something so ugly!

The class-leading Dodge Ram has side airbags too.
#9 of 2854 I did not know that by alpha01 Jul 07, 2003 (3:51 am)
the Ram had full length side curtains, which is the side airbags setup that I was referring to.   From what I saw at NYIAS, I think the Titan is incredibly sharp and agressive looking, without overdoing it, a la Ram. Sorry i_luv_toyotas, the Tundra is still too small, still too nondescript, and still doesnt offer enough power with the 4.7L.   Anyway, back to the Highlander. Is Toyota going to wait until the redesign to drop the 3.3L V6 in? That would somewhat suck, as the HL is decently quick, but not up there with Pilot, Murano, and the torque rich Endeavor.   ~alpha

I would imagine they'll wait till then.
