Detailed review: |
BUYER'S REMORSE! I purchased 2005 V6 XLE last week (cash) to replace a 2001 version that was totaled. There is a significant difference in the 2005 drive by wire technology and the previous models that all should be keenly aware. The computer controlled engine/transmission hesitation from stop to go or from idle cruise and reapplication of power is terrible. I am so upset with it that I am trading it in with less than 1000mi for a different make and model. Toyota loses a faithful owner. |
