Looks like Toyota is going to be offering a more sophisticated AWD system on the all new Highlander coming out now. I forget what they are calling it but it can split power between the rear wheels and apparently mimics the Honda/Acura AWD system which is very good. I don't yet know if it can...

I know they've been out for awhile but it takes time to see new cars in Montana. It was a black one, top trim level with racks on top. It looks smaller in person than I thought it would. Not a bad looking sled. If the CX-9 weren't so good this might have been the choice. The new Highlander is a...

I just pulled in from a 1325 mile road trip from north Phoenix ,AZ to my home in Montana and thought I would share some stat's and thoughts if anybody wants to know about long haul towing with this sled. Ours is a 2018 GT AWD that now has 9200 miles. Payload was approximately 600 lbs ( 2...

Thinking of having my slightly used (5000 miles) 2018 GT AWD clear bra'ed this week before anything else chips. I've had other cars done and I am a believer. Does anybody have any film preferences? I know the Expel stuff is considered the top but most of the other brands are good at this point...

First post in here..looking for some real world experience. I have a 2016 CX-5 GT AWD/tech package that is approaching 4 years and 40k miles. We've had no issues other than the few recalls and the LED headlights failed ( common problem) which thankfully happened under warranty ($2300.00 !)...
