Great small SUV for the money.

The RAV4 is s dependable small SUV with excellent intetior space. It is a very good SUV for family trips that require space for luggage, coolers and sports gear.

They Don't Make Them Like This Anymore!

Great ride and much sportier to drive than the larger Highlander and 4 Runner. The interior layout is perfect! The cargo area is probably the largest in the compact SUV class (at this time). Too bad you can no longer get a V6 option (2012 was the last year): That makes this great car truly outstanding!
