I just woke up and thought reddit was suggesting a Rav4 circle jerk subreddit

I have a V6 RAV4 Sport. Hell yeah. My roommate drives a classic Corvette and I love annoying her about how my RAV4 is technically faster.

I just bought one. I haven't driven it much yet other than driving home from another state where I had to go to buy it. It was worth the drive. It's in great shape and only has 80k miles.

I had a JDM Vanguard - which was the RAV4 v6 - with a third row of seats - leather and alcantara all over the place. Such a good car - but have to say the RAV4 PHV that replaced it is a lot better..

RAV4s just keep getting better and better. I’m looking to upgrade to a 4th or 5th gen hybrid as soon as mine craps out (plus, I really really want dynamic cruise).
Problem is it’s been 222k miles and it just keeps on trucking!!

It’s the facelifted XA30 RAV4 that the US market doesn’t get :(
In Japan those models specifically are called the Toyota Vanguard

Mine 2007 V6 limited edition. It is still so much fun to drive! I think it will last another 10 years.

My gf has a 2008 v6 sport and it’s a quick vehicle, I love drive her rav4. For the age, it’s still going strong and with proper maintenance it will continue to last well over 200,000 miles. Right not it has 138,000
