Toyota almost got it perfect

Date of Review:  Aug 28, 2006
The Bottom Line: Toyota reliabilty made me go for this one. It does have flaws however.
Review: Our family bought a RAV4 2005 model last September and we bought a 2006 model this August. Because we now have 2 RAVs I am compelled to review the 2006 model as it compares to the 2005.

Engine: Our 2005 is a 4 cyl and is quite peppy but...

Great SUV

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you have the cash, yes buy buy buy. It's a trouble free vehicle, with a great resale value ( I'll never sell mine)
Review: A superior vehicle. I love it! It's comfortable, peppy(V6) and is reasonable on gas. Leather interior and a fully adjustable drivers seat. Dual control for temperature, so the passenger and the driver adjusts to their comfort level. Drives more like...

Great versatile car

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2008
The Bottom Line: We really love this car. It has been fun driving it, and has done everything we needed
Review: We bought our Rav4, Sport, 4 wheel drive, with all the options. We have never had such a wonderful car, I think it is even more comfortable then our Camry! The space inside for the driver is wonderful, lots of head room, shoulder room, hip room, and...

Rav4 has some nice features but a rough ride

Date of Review:  May 5, 2006
The Bottom Line: Until I get used to this suspension, I can't recommend it.
Review: I have the V6 4WD base model with the 3rd row seat and the towing prep package. This package does not contain a towing hitch even though the Toyota web site says it does, just pre-wiring and some enhanced transmission fluid system.

I have...

V6 RAV4: a rocket disguised as SUV

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: The finest small SUV available here, period (now, i'm talking V6, 3rd row seats here).
Review: This is very strange to have so few reviews for 2006 RAV4 as the 2006 model has been around for a year and 2007 model (basically unchanged compared to 2006) has been around now for a few months.

Nevertheless, this is my take on the car. I...

Love my 2006 RAV 4 V-6

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2006
Review: This is my favorite car, love it better than my 2004 4Runner. It is easy to drive - I was getting tired of my trucks: Pathfinder, Durango, 4 Runner. Comparatively, the size of the RAV4 is really nice. Plus lots of storage in the rear area. I...

Unsafe ECU in 2006 Toyota Rav4

Date of Review:  Oct 17, 2006
Review: I have a 4 cyl. 2006 LTD Rav4. Overall very pleased with the car, but it has a serious safety issued relating to the ECU. I don't know that much about it, something to do with an electronic throttle or some such thing. Anyway, if you check other...

RAV4: Couldn't be happier!

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2006
Review: We traded in a 1996 4Runner and were looking for something a little more economical to drive, with more horsepower and safety features, while having maximum cargo. The RAV4 Ltd. 6-cylander we bought is a joy to own. It has more than enough power...

Best Vehicle I have Ever Owned

Date of Review:  Aug 28, 2007
Review: This is the best vehicle I have ever owned. It is fun to drive and when I want to get up and go she just flies.

I have recommended a RAV4 to many people and they too have purchases them and loved them just as much.

It has a nice...

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: Toyota quality is not what it used to be, they are getting cheaper with materials, things like seats & trim rattle. Would shop the competition next time.
Review: I had a Toyota Matrix & loved it, but decided to grow up a little, got the RAV 4, 4cyl 4WD Limited model...like the auto climate control it is easy to use. The reclining rear seats & rear legroom are a plus. The car failed my expectations in the...
