    Hello,

    Need help. We plan to buy 2nd hand SUV with budget 550k. Below are the options:

    Rav4 4x2 2003 model 50K mileage
    CRV 4X2 2003 model 50K mileage

    Ano tingin nyo na best option. May makukuha ba ako ng 2004 model na ok sa 550K?

    Parang mahal for a 4x2 variant.

    Less 50K pa siguro... but if everything is in good working condition... why not.

    And oh, I'll go for the Rav4... it has a better fuel consumption than the CR-V.

    If you need extra space, go for the CRV. It has a bit more room than the RAV especially the 8 'cheater'. The RAV is a better drive. It has a smoother and responsive engine and consumes less gas than the CRV. Best description for the CRV is that the engine feels like it's 'cold' all the time.

    No offense to the CRV owners but the RAV is more 'manly' than the CRV.

    I believe '03 CRV A/Ts are about 500K in the market.

    I'd get the RAV4. For me, it's more comfortable than the CRV in terms of the interior and ride quality over normal road conditions.

    My wife has an '03 CRV, grabe lumamon ng gas saka matagtag yung ride, I'd go for the RAV 4 sana, kaya lang the 4x2 doesn't come in automatic.

    If you don't mind giving up the extra rear legroom of the CR-V, the CBU from Japan Rav4 would be a good choice.

    I owned a 2003 CRV, its really a gas guzzler, matagtag ang ride. My exact fuel consumption is only around 4.5 to 4.8 km/l using Petro Blaze. Go for the RAV 4 by all means.

    Rav 4 too for me.
    Aside from it looks better (for me), the FC consumption of CRVs makes this a better option.

    I have friends who own 03/04 CRVs. daig pa daw nila naka exped sa sobrang lakas sa gaso.

    Don't know if its true, but one of my friends told me that he experienced pretty decent FC on his CRV by trying not to go over 2500rpm, haven't got around to try it on our CRV but if its true then at least it would be more bearable to use the CRV.

    Mine is 2003 CRV A/T. I tried to limit my gas to 2500 rpm by depressing the pedal and pressing it again (Don't know if this works) but again, I still got a mileage of 4.5 to 4.8 km/l of gas. This CRV is just like the consumption of my past F-150 4.2 Liter V-6.

    Naku nakakatakot naman pala yong consumption ng CR-V. Plan to buy pa naman this summer. Parang may nabasa ako sa kabilang thread sabi ng mga CR-V owners umaabot dawcla ng 7km/liter. Bias kaya yon?

    I tried to limit myself to 2500rpm and also tried to maintain 2000rpm when cruising as per advice of a fellow CRV owner and I got around 6.8km/liter as of my last fill up.

    Actually I'll be getting a RAV4, probably by near end of year. I don't really mind stepping over or under 2500 rpm. Don't scrimp on gas, give what your car requires. No pun intended, if you can't afford to feed it, don't drive it. No wonder I see so many nice-looking SUVs in SLEX not driving up to the "Highway Spec" because of these unwritten "2500 rpm" rule, and they are dangerously slow because of the wrong mindset at the wrong place. These gooks are dangerous because since they're not driving up to highway speed (city-driving mindset kasi eh) so highway-abiding drivers (those running average of 80kph) has to overtake and cut them unnecessarily. No matter how much expansion is being done in our highways we still have slow traffic. 'sensya na, I was just a bit pissed off upon learning this, 'coz everyday I drive I tried to get ahead of a jam to find out what's a cause of a slow traffic in a highway that doesn't even have a traffic light, eto pala yun! Yan OT na tuloy.
