My Torque News column might interest you. I explain why to choose 2020 Highlander Hybrid vs gas-powered www.torquenews.com/6626/3-key-reasons-choose-2020-toyota-highlander-hybrid-over-gasoline-models
We just bought a used 2018 Highlander Limited Platinum and LOVE it!! We saved over $15,000 by getting a used one with less than 20k miles and it was totally worth it!!
Great review. Just a heads up. You CAN get the platinum with the 8 seat configuration. When I saw this video I was bummed that you couldn't until I stumbled upon 1 when shopping. There definitely less common but there out there. I know, I bought a 19 platinum, pano roof, heated rear seats 360 cam. The whole 9!
Due to the lack of LED headlights the first thing I did when I got my 2019 Highlander was change the headlights to the Sylvania Ultra. Well worth the additional money.
@Spacecoastz Here are links to what I ordered on Amazon: High beam 9005: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000COCU5W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Low beam H11: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00318NQL8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Amazon says these don't fit the 2019 Highlander, but they do. If you want a light that is almost as white as LED, I would go with the Philips Crystal Vision. I have those in my wife's car. If I had it to do over again, I would've put the Philips bulbs in my Highlander. Here are links to them on Amazon: Low beam H11: www.amazon.com/Philips-CrystalVision-Upgraded-Bright-Headlight/dp/B00U1OL356 High beam 9005: www.amazon.com/Philips-CrystalVision-Upgraded-Bright-Headlight/dp/B017XELXT2/ref=sr_1_4?gclid=Cj0KCQiAl5zwBRCTARIsAIrukdM2M_P5QyrUTwHxYiMI_vYrP0trKGFiFEhLQnae4Ei7FYbmhbz_MgsaAnD3EALw_wcB&hvadid=177585067564&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9016049&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=8341209684066138026&hvtargid=aud-840076997981%3Akwd-13277706258&hydadcr=7088_9585817&keywords=philips+crystal+vision+ultra+9005&qid=1577575613&sr=8-4 Both high/low beam bulbs are real easy to install. There are videos on RUclips that can help or the owners manual of course.
At 9:45 you say it has rain sensing wipers, but isn’t that actually a wiper heater to warm the wipers in cold weather, so they aren’t frozen to the windshield? I think I read that in the manual. I could be wrong though.
I think in Canada for these 2017-2019 Limited is actually platinum Cause I have a 2017 limited.. and it does have the panoramic roof and front and back camera also rain windshield sensors and captain chairs I think The trims are switch around abit in Canada as there is no platinum edition for the 2017-2019 .. however they did introduce the platinum editions for the toyota highlander 2020 and up .... That's wierd
Hi Jeff At 9:20 when you are showing the Platinum trim Highlander, you say that the "ONLY" configuration you can do is the 2nd row captains seats on the Limited Platinum. The only choice, NO BENCH SEAT, NOT going to happen"...Not True....We purchased our 2019 Highlander Limited Platinum with a 2nd row BENCH SEAT! For us, the Captains seats were something we hated, and would have passed on had it not been for the 2nd row bench seat option..... I'd be happy to send you a picture to show you ! Our Platinum is the same Gray Mica color, but has the Black interior...

I like the front better than the 2020.
I like the 2020 interior better.

Jeff, we love your personality and humor. You are a funny guy!!😂
@@snowbella597 that’s so cool of you to say thanks!!
@@Toyotajeff ❤️ Jeff, when's your birthday?
I think in Canada for these 2017-2019
Limited is actually platinum

Actually I forgot that Toyota offered that choice....dumb mistake but I'm glad you caught it! Jeff
As always, I do like your useful videos!👍Good presentation!
are the seats better in the platinum?
brother you say: platium have only choice captain chairs but many platinum have bench :)
Great video thanks for helping me decide 👍
What are the differences, other then they wheels, and sun roof?
When will the 2020 arrive at your local dealers Jeff?
Around January 15th or so
If you misplaced your key
Can you get a new one
I take either but not at 45k-50k price range.
"Doesn't eat a pig cause a pig is a cop?" Nice way to alienate your audience there "Gangsta." I had to stop you there.
👍🏾👍🏾I like his humor lol🥰🥰
Good inside Tip Jeff
Did he say the n-word with the hard r? 1:51
Not sure what you’re talking about. That’s one of about 2-3 words I won’t ever say
lol so the answer to your question...whatever anything sounds like...is a hard no
Great videos,but you need GoPro 7 ,no more shaky vidoes.
First!...highlander looks awesome!
2020 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER LIMITED PLATINUM!
I hate captain 🪑 on Limited Platinum
Jesus Quezada Would you tell us why? Is it more functional or comfortable?
Jeff I'm disappointed in you lol. The sunroof on most if not all newer Toyotas will open a couple more inches if you push the button again.
💜💜💜💜💜💜
Highest trim has only captain’s chair in 2nd row is sucks.
YOu are funny guy LOL.
