I'm bummed that the RAV doesn't have auto headlights. The upgraded JBL stereo is not RDS capable. Would like more thigh support (like Consumer Reports states). Would like the doors to lock automatically. My old car had all of this and I guess I didn't pay attention to this level of detail when I test drove.
Am reading the paint is thin and easily cracked (www.rav4world.com)
Love the look! Love the drive. Gas mileage is good so far - only on tank number 2 so have no numbers yet. Love the bluetooth. Love the speaker system. Got pacific blue and LOVE LOVE LOVE the color. Great SUV. Love the storage compartment in back. Sweet ride all around. Very happy with purchase.
The Rav4 does have auto headlights. You have to leave your head lights on. They will automatically go off in 30 seconds when you turn off the car and automatically turn back on when you turn the car on.
Then I am driving all the time with my headlights on. I don't like that. My 2001 Grand Am had auto headlights for crying out loud. A limited Toyota should have that as well. Geesh.
I wouldn't consider the RAV4 to be the best small SUV on the planet.
Very nice? Yes. (But not really a true off-road capable vehicle).
But it's a car based SUV.
