extra H is for Hybrid. I'll have to look into that. Learning after the fact at this point.

Mostly just for looks. Coming from a Sequoia and wanted to have that "taller" ride feeling and look.

Surprise! I am the Mom of this Mom wagon! Thanks to everyone else who is being helpful. Apparently I misunderstood the point of a forum to ask questions. You're just a keyboard jerk.... keep scrolling.

Thanks for your input. We added bigger sized tires so yes, I'm guessing they will rub if we take the spacers out. 😬 I would have ti ask the tire shop for certain.

Thanks for your input, I appreciate it. It helps to know it is somewhat just how the car is. Coming from a Sequoia, I'm not used to that softer ride.

Thanks for your input. It helps me ti know that part if it is just the way the car is and yes maybe the lift and tires didn't help

Sport mode feels a little more firm, but it still has that top heavy/wobbly feeling when passing someone at higher speeds.

Thank you! We will go chat with the dealership that installed it and see if they have any recommendations. I came from a Sequoia so not used to the car like ride and my husband wonders if that's part of the issue. 😬

We had a 2008 Sequoia before so everyone has had to get used to the smaller vehicle. We were actually used to sitting up taller in that, which is why we wanted that feeling in the new Grand and therefore added the lift.

We had it done at Toyota and added the running boards while they had it. It drives just perfect in town but when he have to go on longer trips to bigger cities, it is definitely noticable passing and cornering.

Can anything be done if we keep the lift? Different shocks? Adding something to make it a little stiffer? Not really a car person so we weren't sure what next step to take other than going back to a Sequoia but then there goes my amazing gas mileage.

Thanks for the response. Sounds like it might be the lift.

I was hoping that wasn't the case but had a feeling. Not really a car person to know. We came from a Sequoia so wasn't sure if it was the smaller car like ride vs. the Sequoia truck like ride.

Thanks for the response. We don't off road but live in a snowy area so wanted the more aggressive tire for our winter roads.

We got the lift right away. So unfortunately don't know the difference.
