I'm going back and removing all the recent posts where things are starting to escalate becauae somehow you both don't realize that people MIGHT have different opinions.
 
Hopefully I won't need to go any further than this public "reminder".
 
Just because someone disagrees with you, that does NOT give you just cause to start commenting on them personally. Believe it or not, sometimes you're goingto see posts that you 100% disagree with. You can disagree with things all you want, make counter arguements, etc. Where it crosses the line is when you start to comment about each other. If you find that you can't disagree without shooting at the other guy, then I suggest you IGNORE their posts and move on.
 
Back to discussing the Highlander please.

For the newer posters, khdspyder is our resident Toyota connection so latch onto his words when he posts. THe big thing for Toyota next year seems to be the Texas Tundra plant. They just announced a V8 Tundra that can tow 10,000-lb.
 
As for the 2008 HH, I have a sneaky suspision that the new version, either 08 or 09 will be bigger than the current version. The RAV is already bigger and the Honda competing model is bigger than the current HH so Toyota has no choice but to keep up. We are hoping for more room, plug-in and so forth as well.
 
I also have a gut feel they will not offer just a gas-saver version. They will either offer something "more" than the RAV or two engine versions. Unlike the CAMRY, the HH is inherently bigger and heavier and thus needs a larger engine to do the pulling. With the current unfortunate trend of bigger and beefier engine, I doubt Toyota can afford to ship a lower power I4 for a 2-ton vehicle.
 
Someone posted earllier that Toyota is embarrased by Ford Escape HEV getting better MPG than the HH, I really doubt it. The HH is in a whole different class while the Escape competes against the likes of the RAV. Even then, the Escape sadly pales in almost all things except the MPG.
 
We just have to keep checking and wait and see......
