2008 Toyota Highlander SUV Limited 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Has It All for 7
 After careful research on midsize 7 passenger SUVs, I selected the Highlander.  The captains chair option with stowaway middle seat is truly novel and well executed.  I have two toddlers so the other vehicles in the category that would force you to take out one of the car seats from the second row to get access to the 3rd row just didn't work for me.  It has all the bells and whistles I wanted like the rear camera, nav system and heated seats and is super well though out inside.  It looks good outside too.  I had a Lexus RX 300 before this that I loved, and this is comparable with the bonus of seating the parents and in-laws when they are in town.
