  Fun for Mommy and kids - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Marta - January 1 - 8:43 pm

  At first I thought it might be a bit small for my 2 toddlers, but it is so roomy in the back seat a tall person fits comfortably, lots of leg and head room, my kids love it and I agree. The fuel efficiency is excellent, I sometime feel like I am driving a car. It handles great.

  Great 4 cylinder Horsepower - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Ed - December 31 - 5:53 am

  I just traded-in my 2001 Rav4 for a new 2006. After test driving it I couldnt believe that a four cylinder would have that much power and performance. I also own a Highlander V6, the performance on the Rav4 is excellent in comparison. Also the large cargo area is almost as big as the Highlander, for the price difference the Rav4 is a steal. I have owned Toyotas over the past 20 years from 4 Runners to Avalons and the Rav4 really competes.

  Happy, excited driver - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Palmetto Lady - December 27 - 8:43 am

  My husband is a "car" enthusiast but 15 years ago I started picking and buying my car. My Toyota 4WD Sport RAV 4 is his favorite. We have even been stopped in parking lots and asked what it is, what do we like about it and "can I take a peek". Good gas mileage, a smooth comfortable ride and great looks with plenty of room. We have made 2 11/hour trips to South Florida since the purchase and were very comfortable.

  My First SUV - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Joseph Greene - November 27 - 2:30 pm

  This is the first SUV I have owned. With about 1000 miles on the odometer its still early but we love it. My wife and I spar over whos going to drive it. It is really fun to drive, very practical and very comfortable. Our other car is a Volvo S80 which we have enjoyed. But the thrill is with the RAV4. We are a little disappointed with our gas mileage. Its running a tad under 20 MPG. We live in Palm Beach County Florida where a lot of driving is stop and go, long traffic lights to wait for heavy traffic on the roads and we havent had it on the open road except for brief trips on the Turnpike or I95 so the jury is still out. But so far we love the car.

  Terrific! - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By C. - November 14 - 2:30 pm

  This is a great vehicle! Handles like a car and is very responsive; tight turning radius makes it easy to get into parking garage from the back alley. V6 is fun to drive - I almost regret the short commute. Great mileage. Sleek look, not clunky or boring like other SUVs. Lots of space for passengers in back seat, with huge storage space. Couldnt be happier with my choice and I still admire it everytime I see it! Love the MP3 capability and bottle holders in the doors. Also love adjustable backseat headrests that can be minimized to avoid blocking rear view - unlike some cars, including other Toyotas, in which they block a large portion of the view!

  High quality design - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Bill - November 12 - 1:23 pm

  Love the car, plenty of power and it is built like a higher priced luxury vehicle. The design is much classier than the last generation of the RAV and it turns heads everywhere I drive it.

  RAV = Really Agile & Very fast - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By M McCurdy - November 8 - 1:36 am

  Owner for a couple months now. Handles great and the performance is amazing. High lease rate is a drawback. Performance makes up for it?

  Glad I Chose It - 2006 Toyota RAV4
  By Rob - November 7 - 7:40 am

  This car rides just as well as the familys Benz sedan or Infiniti suv. Its been great in stop and go, as well as on the highway. The cloth seats feel both durable and comfy. Real world fuel economy has been more along the lines of 22.5/25 vs. 23/28 advertised, par for the course if not better. The 4cyl can chase down your normal traffic without even punching it. This car deserves a look for cargo space alone, which even includes an extra few cubic feet buried beneath the mats. Take a seat in the back and youll immediately notice how far away the front seats really are. Passengers have plenty of leg room and can even recline if need be. It gets a lot of looks for its exterior too.
