Replying to: sdc2 (Jan 10, 2008 1:12 pm) (Actually it is not the same Trooper...my 99 got t-boned December 2004.)   Oh yeah, I remember that.....dang it's been a while. Well I think you'll like the Silver after a while. I settled for the Blizzard Pearl........wish I had either the Silver or that Everglade Green........oh well still content with the purchase. Remember to check out Kelly's place (RAVMAN).....Good stuff there as well Replies to this message: sdc2 (Jan 10, 2008 7:13 pm)

#107 of 174 Towing Prep Package by sdc2 Jan 14, 2008 (8:40 am)
Has Toyota started including the towing "pre-wiring" in the Towing Prep Package for 2008 models? My understanding was that the TPP did NOT include this, in fact the pre-wiring is not listed with the TPP but is listed as an available accessory (included with hitch installation) in the brochure. But I am looking at the build sheet for my incoming RAV4 and it lists:   Towing Prep Package - V6 3,500lb. Towing Capacity - Includes Upgrade Radiator, Fan Coupling, Alternator, and Pre-WIring   It would be nice if that was the case; it was kind of a rip-off the way they were selling a TPP without the pre-wiring...

Replying to: amygud (Jan 09, 2008 7:29 pm) I found the same problem, the hissing sound on your i-pod is caused when the i-pod is charging. If you take the chargning unit out of the 12v plug you should not have the hissing problem. The only problem is that you will have to charge the i-pod either outside of your RAV4 or charge it when you are not using it. Let me know if this solves your problem.

Replying to: speedie1970 (Sep 06, 2007 5:18 am) I agree. My wife and I rented a Rav4 just to make sure we considered and tested everything on the vehicle (can't do much on a dealer test drive but take it up to 75mph and then through town at 35). Renting is a pretty cheap investment for a complete test of the vehicle. We decided to purchase a Rav4 because of the rental test and we love the vehicle.

#111 of 174 Auto lock feature 2008 Rav4 4-WD ? by sanjayr Jan 28, 2008 (5:42 am)
I am currently driving Rav4 4-WD. The car does not lock itself after i start it and driving. Also if i manually lock the car while driving then it does not unlock after i stop the car. I have key less entry and this seems to be very basic feature. Even 1997 Honda Accord i won have it. Can someone tell me if this feature exist? Is there some setup i am missing or this could be a defect?
#112 of 174 Oops! Wrong car by dave_cl Feb 05, 2008 (1:23 pm)
Went into town this morning to buy a 2008 Cr-V to supplement our Honda stable (CR-V 2002, and Honda 13HP-driven generator). Thought I'd call in at the Toyota dealership on the way in to see if they had free coffee (they did). The salesman came over and we chatted about the 2008 RAV4 V6 I was looking at. Took it for a test drive on the highway at 120km/h. Wow! Ha! Bad move. Just bought a 2008 RAV4 with the V6. 3rd row seats are a joke. My BIG black lab will sit over them on his $121 cargo liner, and we'll live happily ever after. I've never been so impressed with any other car. I can't wait to burn off the all-season tires so that I can install winter tires. Yeah, baby! Although, I must say that my CR-V with Michelin X-Ice winter tires is great. Super-Dooper Tuesday indeed! Now. How can I tell my wife?   Dave from Canada Replies to this message: steve_ (Feb 05, 2008 1:56 pm)

Replying to: dave_cl (Feb 05, 2008 1:23 pm) How can I tell my wife?   Maybe you could take a hair dryer to the RAV4 badges and peel them off.   Congrats on the new ride!
#114 of 174 Steve's the MAN! by dave_cl Feb 05, 2008 (2:59 pm)
Yebut. She goes to Florida in two weeks, for two weeks, and I'm supposed to sit here stewing, because the car I bought is still at the dealership? I need better answers, Steve. Hair dryers ain't gonna do it. (Thanks on the congrats, BTW. I was blown away by the power, when I decided to overtake the car in front of me. What a vehicle! V6. Fantastic.) Sob. I can't get it until Feb 18. Even my 2002 CR-V is weeping. My black lab is, as always, just asking for food. How much more is my insurance going to escalate? Does anyone know? Does anyone care?
