Replying to: ykckby (Aug 26, 2009 6:56 am) On the Venza, The seat back folds onto the seat cushion. As you lower the seat back, the seat cushion slides slightly forward. The resultant cargo flow has a slight upward slant....maybe about 10 degrees. It's not as bad as in other SUVs. On the other hand, I wish the seat cushion would flip forward so that you can fold the seat back absolutely flat as in the Ford Escape or the Toyota 4Runner. Hal

Replying to: halwick (Aug 26, 2009 3:38 pm) I have no idea why so many cars have changed. I had a Murano that laid flat and when I looked to replace it, the new ones are like so many...they have a good size slant . |

The new V9.1 was just released by Toyota for the VENZA for $199. Last year it was $265.... The part number is 86271-GEN06-09

| It seemed that there were more Highlanders on the lots and in the ads until recently. Now it seems reversed. Dealers seem to have as many or more Venza's and the Venza is more prominent in the newspaper ads. Maybe that will change come winter? | |

I had been considering a Venza as opposed to a 2010 Outback but the reports of transmission problems and the 20" wheels have put me off. Why didn't they use smaller wheels and tires??? I do like the fact that you can get HID headlamps, however. Any thoughts?

Just a note. Having the Venza on my short list I like to see them on the road. I just finished a 1300mile trip from NY to Florida and saw only one Venza on the highway and that was in the last hour. I'm wondering where they all are? Has the Venza become a soccer mom's car also? I probably saw more Camry's than anything, but a lot of Kia's and Suzuki's. By far the most prevalent non tractor trailer is a pick up truck.

Replying to: roho1 (Sep 24, 2009 5:08 am) Personally, I like the fact that my Venza is a rare sight and it is one of the reasons I did not buy another Lexus RX350 - they were all over the place. I really can't say if the Venza is becoming a soccer moms' vehicle because I too haven't seen that many. But from reading about Venza owners on this and other forums there seems to be a very wide diversity among owners, from older empty-nesters (like me, I'm a grandfather) to families with kids to younger (and older) folks who are really into customizing their Venzas. And based upon the attention I have received from others, the Venza has an appeal that my Lexus RX never had. MD |

Hi There, for VENZA 3.5L V6 AWD Can anyone tell their experience on the Down Hill Assist when Cruise control is set? Does it work on toyota venza?
