Dang, I love my Camry but had I seen the new RAV4 last month, I might have bought that. Last month, the only RAVs I saw at the dealerships were the old '05 models, which I think were way too small on the inside.
These new RAVs are very nice, and I bet I coulda bought one for only 1k more than the Camry--possibly could have negotiated
19k for one--dunno.
One thing that concerns me though is the Long-term Mechanical Dependability rating from J.D. Powers. How can the rating be only 3 out of 5 ovals for the 2001 model (only average--not what one expects from Toyota)? The rating for the following year's model was 5 out of 5. Did the '01's have some mechanical problem that was corrected in the '02's?
You can get the J.D. Powers info at Edmunds by clicking the "Ratings" link in the left margin for a particular car.
