Used 2009 Toyota RAV4 for Sale nearSaskatoon, SK

The RAV4 handles incredibly well. The engine is extremely quick for a 4-cylinder. The ride is very smooth and turning is a dream. I like the overall interior and how the Ipod adapter is set up so you can change settings as you drive.

The fastest car I've ever owned. Quicker than a Mazda Miata. 0-60 in 6.1 seconds and quarter mile in 14.6 seconds! Great gas mileage to boot! Build quality is great. It's a Toyota. Appearance is sleek. Leather inside, moonroof, JBL audio + subwoofer. Cost is low. I only expect routine maintenance. It is very fun!

Toyota quality has fallen dramatically. I have driven a 1997 Toyota Tercel for many years before buying this vehicle. I chose it base on my experience with the Tercel which was still running fine when I traded it in, but it finally started to show rust. The 2009 RAV4, being 12 years newer is already showing signs of body rust along the bottom edge. Also, I didnt learn about an ongoing issue with the torque converter in the 4 cylinder version of this vehicle line until after I bought it and notice odd rumbling noise at around 40 mph. After doing research it seems this is caused by a poorly designed transmission+torque converter. The transmission fluid is dark with particles in it. So far, it is still going, but this has caused me to lose confidence in it. I chose an older RAV4 because they have true 4 wheel drive and because they come with a full size spare. Both of these features are important if you plan drive out in the sticks. I like the design, just wish the quality was still there.

Good features more than I needed or wanted, but came at a great value and price. Nothing missing, compared to a Honda CRV

what's not to like in the RAV.... near perfect.... I wish it came with in dash navigation but I was told it's only available in US models. The thing I love the most is the roaring of the very responsive engine when you press down the gas pedal
