Hot Rod SUV
This lil ute scoots! I have the Sport Model AWD V6 and the RAV handles at the top of it's class. 18" wheels and stiffer suspension are part of the Sport package. I really like the Audio and Blue tooth steering controls. The 440 watt radio rocks. The back seats slides forward and back and also recline. I'm not a fan of the rear tire location, but it does free up space under the rear floor. I've looked and tested most of the competition and the RAV simply walks away from them or should I say rockets out of sight.

My first Rav4
This is my first SUV and I love it except for the swinging rear tailgate. Handle very well and the V6 engine is very strong well worth the 2000 dollars upgrade.Hats off to TOYOTA for the V6.

First new Car
Researched a lot of models before going with the base Rav4 with 3rd row seat option. Loving it...just loving it.

Bigger than it looks
I didn't buy this car (truck?) for its size. I wanted something that had 4 wheel or All wheel drive for trips to Lake Tahoe in the winter. I also wanted something with cargo room to move things when I had to. I have to say of all the cars in my price range, the Rav4 had the most bang for the buck. The engine (V6) is very impressive, from both city driving and on the highway. Its also a lot more stable than you'd expect from an SUV. I'm having to get used to being higher than in a car, but its not bad. I've only had it a week so I can't comment on its reliability, but it seems like the folks at Toyota really paid attention to every detail; it feels pretty solid. My only real gripe so far is that the driver's seat (and probably the others, but I don't sit in them...) aren't the most comfortable in the world, but I'm hoping that maybe they just need to get broken in like a new pair of shoes.

Just what we wanted!
We - my wife and I - replaced our great 1997 Honda Accord with a 2007 RAV4 Limited, 2-wheel drive, 4 cylinder. We got our vehicle on 9-23-2006 and we love it. It is incredibly peppy and our prime driving circumstances - small rural town - could hardly justify the supercharged V6. It was necessary for us to special order to get the colors and features we wanted. The wait was long, the cost was MSRP, but we did not get a load of dealer add-ons either. Reliability, safety, looks and comfort were among the top priorities in selecting the RAV4 for the two of us still-active oldsters.

Most reliable car I've owned.
Wow. MY 2007 model SUV is great. I have the V-6 with 269-hp.It is very smooth drive and it has most of all safety features. It is worth to pay $25000.
