Revving up my new RAV4...

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2006
The Bottom Line: I'm glad to be revving up my new Toyota RAV4, but if you have a big family, you might want to keep looking.
Review: This review has been a long time coming. Up until last week, I was driving a very basic 1997 Toyota Corolla. That car served me very well for almost eight years and 120,000 miles, but it was beginning to look like an eyesore. It was time to trade up...

New RAV4 now best-in-class? Four and V6 reviewed.

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: A thoroughly competent and pleasant compact SUV, without the V6 and third row too little distinguishes it aside from the Toyota name.
Review: In the past, Toyota has made product decisions that almost make it seem like it doesn't want to do too well. The first Sienna minivan was a half-size smaller than the leaders. The styling of the Highlander and Camry could not be more boring. The...

2006 Toyota RAV4: Can an SUV Be OVER-"Improved"???

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: I'm not crazy about the RAV4. It just strikes me as a vehicle that's refined out the impurities that made it worth knowing...another bland, mediocre SUV.
Review: Cars are like people, they all have their individual quirks and personalities, and sometimes you get along with them, and sometimes you just don't see eye to eye.

This past week, I've been driving a 2006 Toyota RAV4, and it's one of those...

Our Car of The Year - Yours?

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: Anybody looking at small SUVs has to consider this one. Just be aware you probably won't get much of a discount.
Review: Introduction:

We have now owned and driven our 2006 Toyota Rav4 Limited for about one month. The odometer reads 1300 miles. We two retirees live in the Northwest and were looking for a multi-purpose vehicle that could function in a variety...

Only vehicle we could both agree on....

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2007
The Bottom Line: Very well designed little vehicle. It's probably not the perfect car for everyone but it was as close to perfect as we could find.
Review: First I'd like to say I second just about all the comments "friendly_jacek" has mentioned about the RAV4. I too find it hard to believe there are so few reviews on this vehicle. Especially since it is so much different than the previous RAV4 design...

06 Rav Better than before?

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2005
The Bottom Line: Definitely worth looking into and at least test driving. Price Paid: $23,355
Review: BACKGROUND

I traded in a 2003 Saturn Vue V6 AWD for the 2006 Rav4 2.4L - My experience with the RAV is limited to my wife's 2004 4wd base model. There are a few things I liked about both vehicles that I miss/dislike in the 2006 model.

The Perfect Car!!

Date of Review:  Jul 7, 2006
The Bottom Line: Before I bought one for myself, everyone who has one could only say good things about it.
Review: I bought a 2006 RAV4 Sport 4 cyl about a month ago. Every time I get in to drive where ever I need to go I'm in heaven. The 4 cyl engine is plenty to get around as well as economical these days with gas prices soaring and the V6 not getting as good...

Do you want to grin and own something as reliable as a Toyota?

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great SUV for someone who wants Toyota reliability, economy and style.
Review: Yea this isn't as cute as the prior years...I don't want cute. I wanted to go back to a Toyota PU with a club cab, but this is better if you don't need an open bed. I drove the 4 cyl in January and found it very nice. Then I drove the 6 cyl last...

2006 Toyota RAV4

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: Looking for an SUV with lots of room, high level of safety, and great gas milage this is your car!
Review: I bought my RAV4 NEW/USED (It had 200 miles on it, someone traded it in after having it a week) in the summer of 2006. I have enjoyed the great gas milage (22-24MPG) that this vehicle gets, especially with the ever rising gas prices. I also like how...
