Best Little SUV in Texas

I have driven my RAV4 L all over Texas and have taken two trips out to Las Vegas from Houston and I enjoyed every mile. The little Rav was more than I expected and the 30mpg was great. It handled the hills in New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada with ease. Even in the southwest wend it held its ground. In Northern Arizona I encountered snow and it did very well. The only problem I've ever had is with the rear wheel cover in a car wash that has automated brushes. The brushes tend to pull the cover off so I started using the type of car wash that doesn’t have spinning brushes and now the rear wheel cover is not a problem any more.

The Best Little SUV Ever!

This is my second Rav4. Both of my Rav 4's were dependable in any kind of weather. We get great gas mileage. It is easy and fun to drive and easy to park. It starts no matter how cold the weather has been. It handles snow drifts across highways and holds the road very well when slippery. It is all that is was advertised to be! The exterior and interior design of the new Rav4 is very attractive and just makes you want to get in and drive. The Sterio/CD is great too. There is plenty of head room in the new Rav4 to accomodate my husband. He doesn't feel cramped at all while driving it. Thank you Toyota for consistanly making an excellant product!

Better value than CR-V LX

This year should be big for RAV4 though toyota doesn't put more effort to advertise the fact that by using a 2.4 vvt-i engine with VSC, trac ctrl and disc brakes for 4 wheels, ABS on standard list, RAV4 packs a better value comparing the once class-leader CR-V, esp., at the entery-level trims. Except for the sometimes buzzy engine and high-rev transmission under harder accelerations, I don't have any thing to complain on my mid-january cross country driving from Massachusetts to San Franscisco. If you don't care extra several cubic feets cargo or backseat room, RAV4 offers much better safety features over CR-V LX.
