May 10, 2022 by Amy Dixon Leave a Comment

Toyota Highlander

Training for the Paralympics takes special talent. The 2015 Toyota Highlander Hybrid has it. “You’re going to put all THAT in THERE?” were the first words out of my good friend Scotty Reiss’s mouth when she greeted my us at the Westchester Airport.

USED: 2017 Toyota Highlander Hybrid: A 7-Passenger SUV Made for the Road

May 9, 2022 by Cindy Richards 1 Comment

Safety and creature comforts are key to road trip happiness. That and snacks. And the ability to easily access snacks. All are part of the well-designed 2017 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. Add the great gas mileage from a hybrid and even those annoying interstate traffic jams get slightly less irritating. Or, at the very least, they…

After 18 days and 3,100 miles and I can tell you that I still like my family. I’d love to tell you that it’s because I’m just a loving and patient mom but I’ll be honest with you; it wasn’t me, it was the 2019 Toyota Sienna XLE that made the difference. When my husband…

toyota gr 86 sports car

The Toyota GR 86 performs as good as it looks, and it looks really good.   Sometimes I like to get behind the wheel and just drive. I turn off the music, open the windows, and listen to the rumble of the engine as it filters into the cabin. It’s “me” time, and taking it in…

Toyota 4runner by Jill Robbins

  How can you just sit and idle? Our 4Runner arrived the night before the most recent ice storm in Texas. I know a lot of my northern friends chuckle at the way Texans react to any form of cold precipitation but trust me – you don’t want someone who thinks anything below 60F is…
