Cons: None I can think of...

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. I ...

Pros: Great Gas Milage, Lots of room, Safe in Winter

Cons: I have no complaints!

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 much ...

Pros: V6 power, comfort, Reliability, quality

Cons: No dealership nearby, The back door, added options make for an expensive car

Pros: Everything, but...

Cons: Sun Visor(read review)

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 ...

Pros: Well rounded package. Great power and handling. Good towing car.

Cons: Some options hard to get. Considered a girly car by some.

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 bought 2006 ...

Cons: Cupholders and cargo light and trying to wipe the grin off my face when driving!

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 (269 ...
