HL Limited by 2003tls

The Highlander Limited is the top of the line version of the Highlander. Most of the optional stuff is standard, plus they throw in a power passenger seat, 17" wheels, etc. A fully loaded Highlander Limited has a MSRP of over $35,000, so it definitely gets close to the base Lexus RX330's sticker price.

HL Limited vs. RX by wco81

Hmm, so you have to get a Limited to get power seats or is it only the passenger seat that are in the Limited?
 
The standard wheels are 16"? Isn't that small for an SUV? RX has option for 18" wheels.
 
Wonder if they'll put 16" wheels on the hybrid. Some complaints on the Prius board about the size of the Prius wheels/tires.

The fact it is $1.50 speaks volumes about whether it is truely a "diminishing resource." If oil is really running out in the next thirty years (as environmentalists predicted since 1890's, yes over a century ago and every time it was thirty more years to go), wouldn't it make more sense for the environmentalists band together and buy up the entire oil futures market? Wall Street self-interest alone would have engineered a cornering-the-market attempt if it were truely running out soon.
 
That being said, Bob might be missing the performance attraction of hybrid technology; that, and the possiblity of a dollar collapse making oil more expensive (along with gold, steel, etc.).

will get up to $3.49 a gallon someday. Then, we'll see who has the last laugh. GM, with its clunky SUVs, or the Japanese automakers (Nissan, Honda and Toyota) with hybrids that get 57 MPG.

Some clarifications:
 
Powerseat: You can get a power driver seat (not passenger seat) on the base Highlander. You get both a power driver and passenger seat on the Limited.
 
Wheels: HL has 16" wheels on the base, 17" on the Limited. RX has 17" on base, 18" optional. Prius owners complaining about the size of the wheel? Small wheels w/ narrow tires = higher fuel economy. You can't have everything. My guess is that they will stick with the 16" on the Hybrid.

Toyota already announce the HL hybrid will have 17" alloy wheels.

Just curious what the left gauge is for (100-200)? (Obviously, not rpm's!)

'05 gauges similar to Prius? by ssachnoff

Maybe some Prius owners from the other boards can tell us if that left gauge is on their dashboards, too.

Maybe it has something to do with either the battery power left, or how much it is using at the time. It is a big gauge so it must be important.
