#79 of 143 Does any body have an AVERAGE MPG on Speedometer multi-information display by johnle Sep 29, 2006 (6:31 pm)
Replying to: pf_flyer (Jul 31, 2006 1:35 pm) Does any body have an AVERAGE MPG on Speedometer multi-information display on Highlander Hybrid 2WD? My new Highlander Hybrid does not have AVERAGE MPG.     Please let me know so I can go back to the dealer to have them fix it.     Thanks,     John Replies to this message: terry92270 (Sep 29, 2006 9:19 pm) shilohlady (Oct 01, 2006 8:09 am)

Replying to: johnle (Sep 29, 2006 6:31 pm) I don't remember the answer, but it was recently posted here...they said if you check your owners book, it explains how to navigate the display.

Replying to: johnle (Sep 29, 2006 6:31 pm) My understanding is that the earilier models of the base (non-limited) HH did NOT have the Average MPG display but that changed mid-way through the 2006 model year.

Took delivery of this car two weeks ago (last day of full tax credit) and so far a great experience. MPG in for in town driving is 28-31 if you are easy on the pedal -- the accel is great, but we are always playing the game of trying to maximize mileage, so we don't use the full pep that car has.... Nav system takes some getting used to, but I think it is a great option for this car since it is well integrated into the power usage, ect on the car. Coming off a Yukon Denali XL it is quite a size adjustment, but the car has nice rear seat room and adequate rear storage with the third seat down. My 10 year old daughter likes the rear seat (believe it or not) because it is sort of her private area -- that won't last as she grows up I am sure!   I drove the Lexus 400H and just couldn't see footing the extra $ for a little more luxury, a power gate and the Lexus name. Especially since we found a Limited HH with Nav.   We'll see what we say in a couple of months, but so far HH is a nice addition to the family.

Replying to: highhygirl (Jan 15, 2006 4:33 pm) If you have a rolling code garage door opener, don't follow the instructions in the Toyota manual. Follow the instructions with your Garage Door Opener. I spent hours following the instructions for programing in the Toyota manual to no avail. My husband got the manual for our opener and had it working in seconds.

Replying to: 82415 (Nov 10, 2006 7:27 am) Our report after 15 months and 15K miles would be the same as the one we gave when we purchased in July 2006 - what a great vehicle - and our experience backs up this reliability survey.   15,000 miles, coming up on oil change and check and absolutely _no_ problems or complaints. There's an old truism in autos that you never buy a new model during its first year, you'll be buying something without the bugs taken out. Some folks have had problems but sure seems like that's not the experience with most, at least in these forums. - John
#87 of 143 I love my Highlander Hybrid by martingg Nov 19, 2006 (9:32 am)
I love this car...Toyota knows what it is doing...only issue is that I'm struggling to get to 25mpg...I'm in Texas and maybe the AC drags the mpg down....nevertheless I got 11(!!!) mpg on my Infiniti QX4 so I am so far ahead of the game... Replies to this message: kullenberg (Nov 19, 2006 10:59 am)

Replying to: martingg (Nov 19, 2006 9:32 am) Try using a synthetic oil in your next oil change (being aware that once you switch, you should stick with synthetic), also run you tire pres. at arouind 36 psi. Those 2 things have bumped my MPG to 25-26 .
