2019 RAV4

^Man that looks good. Like a baby 4Runner.

 

NX is Rav4 (with 2.0T)
UX is CHR (with euro hybrid AWD)

 

UX is the luxury version of the CHR

NX is the luxury version of the Rav4.


EDIT: @Bishop84 just beat me

 

Regretting buying the first year of the civic redesign. All sorts of little things that were taken care of the following g year.

Say what you want, but I had a 2007 AWD v6 RAV and it was a blast to drive. 270hp in such a small package. Very good road manners but poor Toyota build quality. They don't put the V6 in them anymore, sadly.

 

We have a 17' Rav4 SE in Purple. I've worked on Toyotas my whole career and the 13-18's have been very reliable, only torque converter issues really.

This new motor that came in the 18 Camry is a new workhorse, so far we've only seen issues with the updated 2GR, not with the 4 banger.

I would still hold off, for reliability reasons, and if financing the rates are dreadful the first model year of a refresh.

 

Hey! I had a ‘98 I loved that thing, we have a 2014 now but I’d rather still have the 98. It was black with unpainted black fender flares bumpers and side cladding and no power anything.
I think that was the least vagina model.
I took that thing off road, was no Jeep or Taco but did pretty well, I wouldn’t dare take a newer one off road.

I’ll have to try and dig up a picture, but this was before camera phones but I do know I got a digital camera while I owned it.

 

I bought a used low mileage 2017 SE for my wife two weeks ago. I haven't driven much but like the driving position and seats much better than in my Tacoma. I do prefer the look of the front-end of the 2019. The grill is a big improvement.

 

Subaru is Toyota

 

Reviews so far have been meh in a market where people gush over the Honda CRV. New Passport looks intriguing too.

 

This makes no sense. I say this as a former Subaru and Toyota owner: '77 Celica, '03 Outback, '12 WRX, '17 WRX.

 

I'm tempted to say that's what she said, but I won't...

Ahem.

That was a great model right there. Subaru also had a turbo Forester in the past and from '17-18. It's unfortunate how these companies used to produce small SUV's with some performance cred, but now have dropped back to sub-200 HP.

Well I had a CRV for quite awhile--my son currently has it, still going with >250K miles--and they get the job done, but not fast compared to turbo sports sedans like the WRX, even Camry and Accord.

 

I loved my 2009 RAV-4 V-6 Sport.

 

Subaru Toyota Relationship
Toyota expands partnership with Subaru parent Fuji. Toyota Motor toy will pay $311 million to raise its stake in Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries to 16.5%, and the two companies said Thursday that they will develop cars together. ... It currently owns an 8.7% stake in Fuji Heavy.

 

I just went to Toyota’s website and the 2019s on there don’t look like this? Maybe it’s last years model they’re still showing but it says 2019.

Edit: you have to pick the adventure trim

 

I like adventurous TRIM!!!! My wife has that model.

 

You may or not know - Toyota owns 16-18% of Subaru. Therefore they do a lot of co-operating I am sure
We own a 15 Outback limited with "eyesight" and our 17 Tacoma - I like to think of this as a perfect combo.

 

Now now that spare tire on the back made it rugged just like a Heep..

 

Which of the Z cars did you have?
