hey guys.

I absolutely agree on all the SUV points - especially when ya see one hauling down the interstate at 80+ mph..... and caring less on the affect on the rest of us.

That being said. The little info I got seems to indicate that the marketing label of "crossover" isn't entirely true. It seems to be more of a camry station wagon than something like the pacifica. I don't want an SUV but interested in something with more utility and some towing capacity. I have an Avalon that gets reasonable fuel economy (24 city 32 hwy) when not suffering from "seasonal ethanol disorder".

The additional information I am looking for is fuel economy and towing capacity on the 4-cylinder model.

FWIW toyota seems to always be behind the marketing product development curve.... and has definitely slipped in quality kazen has taken a back seat to market expansion over the past 8-years.
