Pros: What do you like about 2008 Toyota RAV4?
Great power with the v-6.
Love the 4 wheel drive - could not get it stuck in the snow and handled well on ice.
Love the handling - it accelerates and corners like a much more expensive sports car.
Good gas mileage.
Plenty of room for the family and the dog.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Toyota RAV4?
I wish they didn't have a limiter on the top end speed. 120 mph is as fast as she goes.

2008 Toyota RAV4 Review:
Great car. A little pricey but it is a Toyota and the reliability is worth a little more.
Will buy a new one once my 2008 gets too old.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Toyota RAV4?
I love my RAV4.
It drives so smoothly and has a great capacity for 'hauling' things like moving my son to college or carrying bags of mulch, plants etc.
I feel like it is very reliable and it is fun to drive.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Toyota RAV4?
I bought the bottom of the line RAV4. It costs too much to upgrade to the nicer models.

2008 Toyota RAV4 Review:
This is a fun car to drive - it feels perky and fun and handles well. Even the 4 cylinder does fine on the highway.
