Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Very safe, fun to drive, good hauling.

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fun, Sporty, Roomy, Great to Drive

Fun & high quality

by mjd1
May 13 '02 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: fun, looks cool, mpg, it's a Toyota
Cons: noisy; cramped rear seating
The Bottom Line: It isn't a Camry or Maxima or a Jeep either, but it is a great little suburban-type SUV for those who want that kind of fun, practical, and well-built car.

We have a 1999 RAV4-L which has most of the usual options such as electric windows and locks, cruise, A/C, automatic, AWD, roof rack. It's a great little car, especially as a second family vehicle. Fun to drive around town with decent gas mileage...

by Anniekath
May 14 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fun to drive, fun to look at, tons of room, controls are easy to read and reach, very reliable
Cons: A bit pricey

Ok, first I should probably start out by saying that I am obsessed with the Toyota RAV4. I saw my first RAV in 96' when I was 13 and knew right then and there that it was the car for me. Initially, I was attracted to the RAV4 because of its...

Dec 18 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: A lot of vehicle for the money...very comfortable ride.
Cons: Not roomy enough in the rear seating area for long trips.

I recently purchased a Rav4 for my daughter, who graduated from High School and was heading for college. I researched small suv's for sometime and narrowed my choices to the Rav4 and the Honda CRC. While both are quality vehicles, and I would have...

Sporty but small

by TheKodiak
Apr 17 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Handles well for an SUV, will haul a 27" TV with ease
Cons: Seats not comfortable for everyone, will not haul a 60" table

The RAV4 is great fun to drive, on-road and off. It's roomier than a hatchback, with good ground-clearance. The small engine is surprisingly powerful. It's off-road performance is reasonable for a car, although it doesn't compete with a Jeep or...

Fun and Affordable

by blanders76
Apr 21 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fun to drive, less expensive than full size SUV's
Cons: Not much space in the back seat

The Toyota Rav4 is a great option for people who want a sport utility vehicle, but don't have the money to buy a full size SUV. I actually would have preferred to have a Toyota 4-Runner, but considering the average price for this vehicle is over $30,000,...

Another Toyota winner

by Rjpobjr
Dec 18 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: styling, ride, comfort, controls, fold-down back seats
Cons: acceleration in 4 cyl.

I leased about six months ago a RAV4. This followed 13 glorious years in a Toyota 1/2 ton pickup. My complete satisfaction with the pickup guaranteed that I would buy another Toyota, but I surprised myself by opting for the RAV4. I leased it because I...

Mar 03 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Reliable, great visibility,handles like a car -- what's not to like
Cons: None so far

There were no two ways about it -- I fell in love with the RAV4 the moment it hit the market several years back. My husband and I drooled over them at the dealership, practically shredded the brochure from looking at it over and over again, and...

Great Vehicle

by THOMAS1
Dec 18 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Very quiet and fun to drive.
Cons: Ok heres 1 con but its not against the car. The Toyota service department is HORRIBLE. As I have never owned a Toyota before I don't know if there all like this but I will NEVER go to a Toyota service department again. When we bought the car we were given

My wife had a sports car and she wanted something with more room. She decided on an SUV. At first we were looking at larger SUVs like the Explorer and Pathfinder. They turned out to be a little expensive and too "big and trucky" for her. We...

Rave about my RAV4

by phays0226
Jan 24 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Handles well, roomy, cute
Cons: NONE!!!

I had been driving Honda Civics since 1992. I love the hatchback and the fold-down seats for space, but I wanted to have a bigger "presence" on the road, and more space inside. I carry a lot of electronic equipment around. I looked at big...

Toyota RAV4

by opinionKated
Nov 16 '00 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Addictive to drive.
Cons: Hard to share.

I bought the RAV because of Toyota's reputation for reliability, but I love it because it's so fun & easy to drive. It zips onto the freeway, it turns bumps into almost nothing, it handles more easily than a toy.

My husband talked me into...

Pros: Gas Mileage, Styling
Cons: Horsepower

I bought my RAV4 10 months ago, and have fallen in love with it. I drive about 900 miles a week, and it's the most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. I struggled with a decision between the Honda CRV and the RAV, finally deciding on the RAV4...

Nice SUV with all wheel drive!

by cas4gt
Dec 14 '99 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: All wheel drive, electric everything!!
Cons: I really don't have any!

My wife and I were looking for a SUV in the price range of $17,000.00 to $25,000.00. With this price that gave us room to look at many other SUV's. We first saw the Rav4 we weren't sure if it was enough truck or not. So we ask the dealer (Thomson's...
