CONS: a little noisy, power for passing

REVIEW: This car has tons of cargo space. I can fit both my medium sized dogs in the back just fine. Turns on a dime. I did have a leak 3/4 of the way up the passenger side post between the front window and side window. Toyota couldn't find a leak of course so they just resealed the roof gutter ...

My 10 year old and I have gone camping in this by folding down ...

REVIEW: I bought the first model (2003) in March, 2002. Very pleased with overall performance. Vehicle now has 113k and still runs very well. 60/40 Split seats allow up to 6ft linear cargo space. Great highway traveler and can compete with some of the best for speed and passing. Some starting problems ...
