Replying to: phansen (Mar 26, 2007 8:46 pm) The design of this is totally flawed. and now it's going to cost me almost $2000 or not have air conditioner in a brand new car. This is completely unacceptable. Please let me know if any one else has had to replace the condenser in their highlander hybrid. my email address is rhrouse(at)gmail.com. Thanks, r

Replying to: pathtomax (Jul 23, 2007 6:14 am) As for the gas mileage, I wish people would STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS!! Gas mileage in a hybrid- ANY hybrid - is HIGHLY dependent on driving style. When I drive our HiHy, I get 29-30mpg. When my wife drives it, she gets 25. Same for our Prius... when I drive it, I get 51 typically. When she drives it, she gets 43 or 45. I use pulse and glide, and coast whenever possible. She just drives, typically with the AC on all the time.  Even driving with complete disregard for gas mileage, a Highlander Hybrid still gets better gas mileage than the regular one, and pollutes a lot less. If you don't want to put a little effort into maximimizing your gas mileage, buy a Vespa or if you really want to complain about gas mileage, buy a Hummer, but stop complaining, please! Both the Prius and Highlander Hybrid are EXCEPTIONAL vehicles with INCREDIBLY HIGH quality. Save your breah if you want to piss and moan, the vast majority of owners are completely satisfied with their purchases and are completely thrilled with Toyota. I know I am.

Looking for advice and /or opinions on choice for new tires for 4WD HH. 60% of miles are Arizona highway - posted speed limit 75 MPH. 30% city traffic 10% gravel/sandy roads No plans for snow driving, but concerned about water traction (for "rainy" season). My choices are: Bridgestone Deuler Alenza Goodyear Fortera Michelin Cross Terrain Thanks Joe

| Just got back after eight days out of town. Found the battery dead in my HH '06 at the airport. I phoned the Toyota Dealer and the guy told me that the HH is usually okay for 5 to 7 days (Priuses maybe three), but no more than that. Anybody got suggestions on how to solve this problem? I'm kind of amazed that Toyota would put out an automobile (as much as I love this car) without solving this kind of flaw. | |
