PLEASE -- AVOID 4 CYL HIGHLANDER (FIRST GEN).
YOU WILL SEE ANTIFREEZE ON THE GROUND ABOUT 125,000 MILES, then your screwed with the engine bolts giving way a short time later, and the head gasket blowing as you drive down the highway.
Who knew? I shudda!!! NEVER will I NOT research a car on this site that I want to buy again.
Got sucked in by thinking that Toyota means quality.
Of course, despite the stripped bolts issue all over the internet, the dealer in Ottawa (Mendes) says "What? Never heard of this problem." "Honest."
