We expect a high quality product from Toyota, but got more then expected at this price point. RAV 4 has come a long way since it first came out. why people pay a lot more for other brands confuses me.

I purchased this car new in Feb. 2018. Since driving everyday, I have noticed the quality of this car. Dash board is cheap plastic, so are the doors, console..just about everything is hard CHEAP plastic on the inside. The sun visors are like cardboard covered with a thin plastic. The black nylon seats are horrible...everything clings to them, and they are uncomfortable as all hell.... started hearing a noise when i make a left turn, almost a thumping sound..will be taking it in shortly for that. I am VERY disappointed with the quality of this interior... i am sorry that i purchased this car... should have bought the Subaru Forester!!!! Take your time and give this car a good look over before buying a Toyota Rav4....

I just got through completing my sale of a wrap for last night. I paid $21,781 drive out for an LE model. I shopped almost every dealership in Houston and the average price they were quoted me drive out was in the range of 24 to Mid 25. so the price of $21,781 wasn't too bad for full drive out price. I financed with my credit union, shell, and I got $250 back from them by financing it through shell. I hope this help somebody out there who's looking for a car believe me it pays to shop around online and email quotes. I don't know if it helps any but the place I got it from was Joe Meyers. not really plugged for them because I've quoted them before in the past and they were higher than everybody else. Good luck on your shopping. On a personal note I would have preferred the Honda CR-V but it was like $3,000 more expensive. UPDATE: After 3 years now driving it. Me giving an update at this point would not really be fair. To be honest it is not really driven very much. It only has 5k miles after sll this time. Still has new car smell. I do have one complaint. A button on the top by the rear view mirror broke. Looks to be defective. Went ahead and glued it back to avoid taking it in to dealer and comming back. Was not worth my time. But it does drive very smooth. Large room inside. Much more than my CR-V. The reliability of a Toyota, I would suggest if you can find and afford one. It would be a good investment in a great quality car. Last for years. You would buy several cars before this one totally breaks down.

Great ride

We traded in a Camry and a Chrysler 200 and got a Rav4. Jermey G and Frank Black Cloud were great to deal with in doing this trade. The RAV4 rides great, just took a trip to the twin cities, comfort, gas mileage, the handling of the Rav in traffic was excellent. If your looking for a good deal, see the people at Lake Toyota.

Will never buy RAV4 again

I bought RAV4 on 01 Dec 2018 after I traded in my 2008 Toyota Camry. It was late evening and I hade short test drive around the city , the highway was fully jammed, the traffic was heavy and I did not have a chance to drive the car on highway. That caused all the complications after I bought the car. It was late evening and I was harried to finish the deal and I did the wrong thing ever. Never take the first offer, test drive the car day or two. get a real picture of the comfort. After I left Toyota dealership and got on highway I found that Rav 4 has extremely noisy engine. It sounds like the airplane is flying on top of your head. it's very noisy inside of the cabin, like it is not hermetically closed. The sound of the rough , stiff tiers on the road, screaming engine and outside wind makes unbearable noise inside of the cabin. I can't run webex meetings in the car as usually because I can't clearly here the voice of my colleagues. Car has also heavy steering, The fuel usage is also awful, I am adding gas more frequently than for Camry Le 2008 for the same driving distances. The interior design is more for the men than a women. My mistake. I am having a headache every day driving 22 miles on highway one way to work. The noise level and the fuel usage are the major complains I have for this car. The horrible part is that I can't return the car ( may be I can, tell me about it if you know more and the way) . if I trade in this car to buy a new one I will loose lots of money. I don't like the cargo area. I bought an organizer to keep the shopping bags still. when they are moving during the driving that makes an additional noise . I need to tight up the plastic bags otherwise when I am opening the trunk door all the shopping falls under my feet. If I had a chance I would have bought CAMRY 2019
