2006 Toyota Highlander SUV 4dr SUV (3.3L 6cyl 5A)
I'm happy with my choice
 I compared the HL with Jeep Liberty and Ford Escape.  What sold me on the HL was the rear seat room, build quality, control layout, engine/transmission, and Toyota's reputation.  I also like the rear hatch with the spare mounted below (versus the side-hinged door with gate- mounted spare on the Liberty).  Mileage in the first 1000 miles is 17- 18 city, 21-23 highway.
