  • Love it for the Most Part - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    I have owned my car for over a year now. Overall, I like it a lot. I had to have an SUV, but it is just too large for me. Anyhow, I love the pick up and speed. It is excellent in the rain - absolutely sticks to the ground! Also, very good in snow, unless you try and go through the UP of MI - forget it - it felt like the car went into rear wheel drive mode. Scary, but for every day IL driving with some snow, it is fine. I hate the amber lights. With sunglasses on, I cannot read the console. I will never get a car with amber lights again.

  • Very Happy with RAV4 - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    I needed more room than my 4 door sedan provided, but I didnt want a large gas sucking SUV. The RAV4 is perfect for my familys needs (we already have a minivan). The ride is very nice, reasonably quiet, and it holds the road well. The power of the 3.5 liter V6 is great, and Ive been averaging 23.5 mpg in mixed driving over the 3000 miles Ive driven the car. It seems to get between 25 and 28 mpg on the highway and between 17 and 19 around town. The third seat fits our 5 year old well, and since its a 50-50 split, the dog can sit next to him in the back while the 2-year-old twins are quite happy in the middle row. Highly recommend! Great car!

  • Love my RAV4 - 2007 Toyota RAV4

    I love my RAV4. Comfortable to drive on long trips, loads of room, 45,000 miles and no problems. This is my 2nd RAV4. First one was a 1999,loved it too. When it came time for a new vehicle, I got the new car bug, couldnt wait to buy the newer model, 2007, much quieter ride and larger. Plenty of room for the kids.

  • Awesome Sport Ute Rocket - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    Checked out the CRV, the Sante Fe and the Mazda CX 7. After test drives and reviews, wound up with the Rav4 and have not been disappointed. Its an awesome little truck with tons of standard features and typical Toyota quality. Even at the base model you feel youre getting a lot for your hard-earned dollar. Oh, and this thing is fast, even the AWD.

  • Great Value and Reliability - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    I have had the RAV4 for about 18 months and no problems. A real value and very reliable. MPG, about 23 in town and 28-30 on the highway. Plenty of room and comfort, with plenty of headroom and very little wind and road noise. The 4 cylinder has plenty of power and did not need speeding tickets with the V6 engine. I have a new 2008 Highlander and I call the RAV4 my baby Highlander. Very hard to find fault with.

  • The choice was fairly easy - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    Before we started shopping, we had our choice narrowed down to the Rav or the Honda CR-v. After driving each of them, the choice was simple. The Rav was quieter on the highway, less road and wind noise. Takes bumps great, and we hit 70 mph in no time. This is for our daughter in college, so we chose the base model, figuring her friends would probably borrow it, and it would be parked in lots where nicks would be inevitable. If you dont need a moonroof and auto climate control, the base model is fine. She uses the iPod hookup most of the time, so didnt need the 6 disc changer. The radio on the base is plenty good, and still has 6 speakers. 4 cylinder seems to be peppy and very responsive.

  • Gotta love it! - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    Have only had 1 week after trading in my 2003 Rav4. What a change! Love the V6 from the old sewing machine 2 Litre. Nice layout from the dash to seats. Bravo Toyota! Even the base stereo deserves a 10 compared to the 2003. Love the moonroof, with hopes of a suntan on the ole cueball.

  • Great car - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    V6 gets 29 mpg on hwy - fantastic! Gets less than 20 in city traffic. Doesnt live up to the 22 mpg city listed, and I drive like a grandma. Nice upgraded stereo sound, but Im on my 3rd unit - it has a known defect/short that JBL cant seem to fix. Im hoping 3 is a charm. A very comfortable, powerful car. Bluetooth option is nice for hands free cell phone use.

  • More than I expected - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    My Rav4 limited v6 is everything I had hoped for and more. Its a hoot to drive with all that smooth power; one has to be careful not to get carried away! No SUV out there can touch it, especially not from the stop light!

  • Great SUV value - 2007 Toyota RAV4
    By -

    Purchased this RAV after owning a 1998 RAV. So the difference is quite noticeable. This is my daily driver, so I needed 4WD and wanted good/decent gas mileage. The cabin is much larger, both with leg room and shoulder room. Love the look of the Sport (I think it handles tighter with the larger wheels). Gas is about 25 mpg with 80/20 highway/local driving. The road noise is considerably less. The back seat area is spacious, even if youre 62". The 4 cylinder has a nice punch, its not a 6 cyl, but off the line is good with just me in the car. When I test drove the sales guys said that the 6 is too much. Test drove CRV and 07 highlander-liked the RAV better.
