    I got this car in November, first car, have never road-tripped alone before, but drove 11 hours without needing to even sleep because of good timing but ALSO because the car is SOOO comfortable to drive. I also had to drive in the snow in the mountains at night after getting to my destination… and wow. Scary but felt super safe the whole time as I could tell the car was taking care of me as a new driver. The adaptive cruise control is AMAZING and makes long trips nice. I’ll never get a speeding ticket lol. The audio system is so nice and the noise canceling/reducing window design REALLY makes a difference… it even makes inside of the car quieter. If you have a loud family i’m sure you could turn the music up a bit and find some peace. The camera system is also greatttt and has made learning to use my mirrors easier. Honestly it’s just an easy car to drive. The safety features make it damn near impossible for you to cause an accident because even if the back corner of your car might touch something there are 360 cameras that show at the same time as the rear camera. Anyways I know people have qualms about the car but it’s sooooo nice to me and even the exterior looks classier

      That outlet that he showed near the back said '1500 watt". That one looks like it could be used for stuff like your sump pump or a miter saw. I just googled it on my phone and it starts at $47,000 and you have to wait 2 years to get one after you order it.

    Great overview video! I love the Toyota Hybrid system (I have a Rav4 Hybrid Limited) and had heard that the new '23 Highlanders were finally getting an upgraded interior so I figured I'd take a peek... I am here to say that I am DISAPPOINTED by this effort from Toyota. Yeesh... The huge borders on the infotainment screen, the very strange placement of the volume knob, and the hideous plain looking toggles for the drive modes.... It really does make you wonder why Toyota stayed asleep on this one? I love how this car looks on the exterior - its not overly flashy and looks clean and yet still has some aggressiveness. The interior just looks like something from 2016 with an added digital gauge cluster and a slightly larger than back then infotainment screen. Have the Toyota Interior Design Engineers not seen what the latest Hyundai Pallisade interior driver and passenger dashboard looks like? Get on it folks!

    • @UnseenSpirit
