I like the shape of the exterior of my RAV4. The look is between a jeep and a mini- SUV. It is very sporty and fits a fast-pace life style. It always makes me feel energetic and I have a lot of fun driving it. It is also very versatile-- for transporting either passengers or goods. I do not like the bulky size of a SUV, and RAV4 meets my needs to run the daily errands just well. The interior is simple but elegant. It does not look as extravagant and that is how I like it. I take my family of 3 on a small trip frequently and it is quite comfortable and safe. Sometimes when I make a trip to another state or overseas, I can put all the luggage and there still is still lots of room. The Price is economical, for the vehicles of similar class. Toyota is a reputable brand. They make sturdy cars that last. I do not need to take my RAV4 back for maintenance often, just like what I did when I owned the other Toyotas in the past. There is an optional feature via special order that I like especially, which is called Front Floor Lighting Kit. I think it is only offered by RAV4 but I can be wrong. I do not have perfect eyesight, especially during the night. This feature allows the area under my foot to illuminate when the door is open. Whenever I need to look for some object that falls on the floor, I just simply open the door and I have lights. It is also allows me to get in and out of the car safely.

I currently own a 2015 Toyota Corolla that I purchased in late December of 2014. I was thrilled about getting a new vehicle because I actually owned a Lemon from another car maker and was about to turn it in due to the Lemon Law. My vehicle had everything that I was looking for in a vehicle that had four wheels, good gas mileage, and a few extra goodies for the inside that I took for granted from my previous vehicle. To get down the description of the vehicle I own and why I choose to purchase this particular one, I will start with my research. I know three manufactures of automobiles are notorious for staying in good shape and last a long time as long as the owner does the scheduled maintenance on it. Toyota happens to be one of them. I have never personally owned a Toyota and checked them out online. The main highlights that I was looking for when shopping for a vehicle was the gas mileage, which the Toyota Corolla was supposed to have approximately 37 to 42 mpg and a roomy enough back seat for my two children, who are in booster seats. The added bonuses with the Toyota Corolla was that it had hands-free calling, a screen that shows who is calling on the phone so you don't have to fumble with your phone when it rings, and a nice gray interior which doesn't show too much dirt. The down-falls was that it did not have touch-free unlocking from the outside, heated seats (which I don't really needing living in Florida, but after a long day and an hour commute, it really became the norm for me to turn my heat on even in the blazing Florida summers), and the rims on the vehicle sort of fall under the plain category.

The best part of my vehicle is definitely the low gas costs. Toyotas are known for being gas efficient cars and it is completely true. I save so much on gas! Also my car is 7 years old and I have never had any major issues with it. I have never had to do a major repair which is awesome. The only thing I dislike is that the paint is peeling in several areas of the car.
