The 2014 Highlander looks great. However 18 miles per gallon in the city makes it expensive to run. That is why I won't purchase a Highlander.

Well written article ...

Many automobile manufacturers have abandoned minivans over the last 10 years because crossovers are where the money is these days. Need proof? Porsche now makes two of them.

Toyota recently introduced the third generation of its Highlander, aimed at suburban families and, apparently, Muppets. In the “No Room for Boring” ad, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem band, assorted Muppet groupies and Terry Crews extol the virtues of this three-row crossover. Among the items it can reportedly hold are “a whole flock of chickens and a grand piano, a drum kit and an organ, too.” Chickens? And you thought Cheerios in the booster chair were hard to clean up.

Yeah, it's pretty expensive, but just about all of these mid-level (sub-luxury) suvs/xuvs are all getting expensive. Most likely if you do the maintenance by the book you will not have any problems going 250k miles before you have to do any real work on it either, so for most of us that drive about 15k miles per year, that's going to be like 15 years before it needs an overhaul! When you think about it like that, if you want to, you'll be able to drive one of these until your toddler needs to head off to college.
