Used 2004 Toyota RAV4 SUV Consumer Reviews

Dependable

Lousy Gas Mileage/No pick up

This is the worst car I ever owned. I am lucky to get 17mpg around town and 22mpg on hwy. For a small car, light car it has no guts. It is reliable and has a nice look; however, it really stinks. I just traded mine in for a Saturn SUV.

My Rav4

I love my 2004 Rav4. I got the sports package which has a little scoop in the hood and metal roof racks and a spoiler. I got the Rav4 in blue which is my fav color. I feel like i have a one of a kind Rav4.

8 months of experience

I got the silver Toyota Rav4 Limited Edition as a graduation present in 2003. It`s a great car overall. The drives are smooth too, despite the potholes in New Jersey. My dad recommended it to me since it tends to snow in our area. It`s a great car for all seasons. I remember ramming up a huge hill of snow. You feel under control. The sunroof during the summer makes it look sexxxxxy.

Terrific in snow and bad weather. Great get up and go. Lots of storage space. I like the rubber coating on the back of the seats, protects from dirty little feet.

04 Rav4 what a car

The 04 Rav4 is a fantastic SUV. It handles the road well and the performance of the vehicle is incredible with the larger engine. The double wishbone suspension at the back is a welcomed improvement. The fog lamp design for the front of the vehicle is impressive and inside the cosmetic changes are very nice to see. You would be crazy not to consider this vehicle is you are searching for an SUV.

Preferred over my Camry and Van et all

Love my RAV 4! Easier to enter and exit than cars or trucks. Much more comfortable to sit in for long periods of driving than my Camry or van was. Can actually get out without walking like Grandpa McCoy. Handles great in country on dirt roads, mud, sand, and fields. Easy to maneuver in interstate and freeway traffic and great visibility. Parking is a cinch, even parallel, and even I can back into a parking place with it - no problemo!

Best car I've owned (knock on wood!)

Well...I've only had this car for 2000 miles, but it's an extremely fun car to drive. 'Premium' sound system was poor. I replaced it with four Infinity speakers and an Excelon Kenwood deck because I couldn't get the top of the line system Toyota offered. After about 1000 miles, the engine 'loosened' up and now runs super smooth. Averaging about 28 mph.

The Best Vehicle I've Owned!!!

The Toyota RAV4 is the best and most fun vehicle I have owned and I have been driving for over 30 years. It a sturdy truck and it drives like a car.I think this car, not only rides well, but it also is a good looking vehicle. I also had a wonderful experience, with everyone at the dealership.

From CRV to RAV4 and no regrets

I traded my 2003 CRV to a 2004 RAV4 for the simple reason that the RAV4 handles a tenfold better than the CRV. I found my CRV to be "trucky", FAR too big for a "compact SUV" and had terrible road noise. I would have ranked CRV's seating comfort a 2 for me...the worthless armrests dug into my sides; the legroom in the front was shy of sufficient for me (at 6'1). RAV4 changed ALL of that...I'm glad I got one!!
