ironarch,
I find it easier to tow using an A/T. Kasi sa manual I tend to mess up the 'timpla' especially when starting from rest. Sa A/T transmission, A/T na ang bahala. And may A/T transmission cooler pa so less stressed ang tranny.

Manual gives you more engine braking on downhill runs.

1500 lbs for a braked trailer ata ang capacity ng rav4, same with the cr-v

We are getting a new one, actually we already placed an order.

ano feedbacks nyo sa RAV4 4X4? Think it's a good deal?

post naman inputs nyo. thanks

imo, still on top of the local "cute-ute" pile overall. while it's not as big as the CR-V, its excellent blend of interior and exterior styling, performance, parts and service options, resale value, and full-time four-wheel drive make it the most desirable mainstream mini-SUV available currently...

unless, of course, you plan to go off-road and wish to get back home... or plan to assault two feet-high floods... in which case, a used 1999 Nissan Safari would be the no-brainer choice

Very cute ute!! I want one. Just keep it on road. Handling is great. pwede rin pang smoothe dirt roads

Welcome Cardo.

The RAV4 is an excellent buy! if you dont mind me suggesting, get a year old rav4 and save a lot! :D Dami nang thread regarding this. youll have a jolly time reading those.

I hope Toyota Phils releases the updated version of the RAV4, with the mean mean hood scoop! cant wait to get my hands on one (the hood).

Kung hindi lang ako naimpluwensyahan ng mga off-road freaks dito, the RAV would be my top cute ute choice.

RedHorse:: Stock pa rin except for bulbs :D :D :D Im gonna take pics of it tomorrow.

cardo:: ano kinuha mo? AT/MT? What color? The AT in my opinion is a better deal coz kaunti lang price diff (around 40k lang ata). Healthy ang makina ng RAV4. :D
