Used Toyota RAV4 for Sale in Asheville, NC

I like the mileage of the RAV4, a whole tank of gas last over a week, and I drive 50 minutes everyday. I like how big the car is inside and how I can fit just about anything inside. I've had some issues with the stereo from time to time, but the sound quality isn't too bad; just some occasional rattling from a speaker. My tire light has been on for over a year now, but there is nothing wrong with any of my tires; however, a mechanic told me I could reset it with the push of a button. Easy! Every now and then, several lights will come on, but if I cut the car off and turn it back on, they disappear. Maintenance is fairly cheap too. I pay about $30 for an oil change every threw-four months. My year doesn't come with a remote, but everything is electrical including windows and locks. The ... (more)

Story

I remember going to see fireworks one time at a park, and the place was packed because it was the 4th of July. So instead of sitting down in the grass, I simply opened my trunk laid down a blanket and sat inside in the shade. It was much better than itchy grass and bugs.

Pros

Mileage, electrical.

Cons

Faulty lights, color.

2007 Toyota RAV4 - Raving about the RAV4

When I first saw the RAV4 in the dealership lot, I thought of it as a cheap knock off of a Subaru Outback. I was pleasantly surprised that this car seemed to have more space inside than a Suby (Subaru). I have owned it for a year, and this car not only has some get up and go, it also has 4WD! There is a spare tire (not a donut a complete tire) that is mounted on the back of the vehicle.

Story

I had to place some 2x4x8s in the vehicle. My wife and I laid the seats down and had to boards sitting between us while we rode home. I had to turn my body in to funny shapes to reach the slap shift.

Pros

Great gas mileage! Also, the storage is surprisingly large. I have been able to transport eight-foot long building materials from Lowes with no problems. This vehicle is the perfect hybrid between car, truck, and 4WD vehicle. I have been able to navigate snow and ice in it better than most other vehicles on the road at the time. It has required hardly any maintenance other than the routine things like tires, oil, brakes, etc. I did have to replace the alternator, but it is over ten years old! The alternator inside looked like it was factory. Great vehicle. Toyota has won my loyalty with th... (more)

Cons

Sometimes you can hear some plastic rattling a bit when you get up to speed on the freeway. Nothing that is falling apart, just a design flaw in the vehicle. It also only has a cigarette lighter for power. It would be great if it had USB ports like most modern vehicles, but this car was made over ten years ago, so I can't complain about that aspect too much.
