Good points Dean. Might I add
Good points Dean. Might I add, the new 2020 Highlander Hybrid will not be as capable as the Explorer. Their new engine is significantly lower in HP (240). In addition, the rear wheels are only powered by a separate electric motor which won't exceed 40 (HP) to assist in AWD traction - a step backward in my opinion. So towing will be a challenge as well. My only issue is the price point on the Ford hybrid. However, as you aptly noted - against the luxury brands it's priced well.
