Can't believe that we're in an age where a Rav4 has an MSRP of 43k.
We have a 2013 rav 4 and comp vehicles with similar wear/miles are selling for THE SAME PRICE we paid TEN YEARS AGO 😱😱🤯 talk about holding its value 😂
@@emilybrush467lol right? my sister had a 2010 honda civic and drove it for 4 years and put 60k miles on it and sold it for $500 more than what she bought it for in 2019. it's so crazy😅
agreed. so so so sad
My priorities would just lead me to go for the lower trim pilot
Inflation…. It’s not items getting more expensive, it’s dollars worth less. STOP 9-5 today!!!
I loooove your videos!! Still have no idea what car to get next. But your videos are definitely helping narrow it down. Something I would LOVE to see from you is a shot of you in the passengers seat after setting up the foonf rear facing behind the passenger. A problem we are running into is very limited space in the passengers seat after installing our foonf rear facing. Thank you!!
I have the 22 rav4 hybrid and it’s so great for 1-2 car seats! I can comfortably sit with my toddler right now. We are looking into which seat to get for the next baby. You can’t beat the MPGs and comfort of this!
The best taxi of all times
I love your videos !! They are so helpful! I would love to see a review on the 2023 Honda CRV❤
I have a 22 rav4 SE hybrid with our 1 year old twins. It's just enough space to have 2 car seats and fit our stroller, and a few bags when we're going away
GREAT VIDEO KELLY!!! I AGREE WITH YOU 100%. PLEASE KEEP YOUR FAMILY SAFE.
Love your videos Kelly. I have a 2013 rav4. Space is OK for my two boys but ventilation sucks as there are no vents in the back. We have to angle the ones up front to try and compensate but it doesn't help much. Cargo space is awesome. People are always surprised as to how much can fit back there. And gas mileage is very good. Looking forward to your full Grand Highlander tour. Keep up the good work 👍🏾
Curious to see your review of the 2023/24 Honda CR-V Hybrid, and how it stacks up compared to the RAV4. Thanks for your reviews! It’s been a great resource for my wife and I in our purchasing journey
I would love to see you do a review of the Ram 1500 as a family truck!
In the trunk, we flip the stroller up on its “side” against the rear seats and put luggage or bags behind the stroller
enjoyed the video. Lots of valuable information. Plus, Car_Mom, you are adorable! LOVING ur outfit, it just works! Merci
I would love you to talk about wireless connection … I have a Caddy and friends have Honda Passport and neither wireless option is reliably working.
I have a 2022 non-hybrid, and absolutely love it, BUT- when I added roof rack crossbars like this model you’re showcasing, I lost like 2-4 MPG (more so higher losses on highway MPG, less drastic around town MPG.) So honestly, unless you’re actually using the crossbars I’d take em off so you have less drag/wind resistance, and make sure you’re getting the optimal MPG.
We have a 2013 rav4 and it’s perfect for 1 child in a car seat, two is doable but just ok as far as space goes. I definitely don’t recommend if you like your space! But otherwise she’s been real good to us (Knock on wood)! and yes trunk space is always impressive.
Can you do a family friendly vid on the 23 chevy colorado trailboss? I have a family of five (3 kids. 2 in booster seats) but am in the market for a mid size truck. Would love to see that!
Great review. Thanks
We drive a 2015 Rav4 with 2 rear facing kiddos (1 & 3), and borrowed my Mom's 2023 hybrid for two weeks while we visited this summer. Trunk cargo space is 👌🏻. With a larger size dog as well, we did purchase a roof top carrier this year that is essential for us for a weekend or longer trip, but plenty of space for our day to day life. Agree that RF car seat clearance isn't great, and driver's/front passengers taller than 6ft would definitely want to choose a car seat wisely. I also wish second row had more ground space. I need to be able to store diaper bag, and lots of snacks and toys back there, with easy access from the front, and space is definitely tight. We are looking to upgrade to something larger to better meet our growing needs, but still a great vehicle for 1 or 2 kids.
Also, that little cubby where a phone can fit in front of passenger, great in theory, poor design in reality. Different trims may have different design, or I guess you could maybe put down a little non-slip pad, but when turning, a phone will slide right off
Would love to know which midsized SUVs you recommend for three carseats across. Example set up: infant bucket seat, clek fllo, and booster seat clek oobr. Thanks!
should probably buy a minivan. they are great! But, just go with a Toyota Highlander type...
We have a 2021 rav4 xle premium with two kids. No plan to have any more kids. Works great but definitely too small for more than that. We also found more compact seats like the Britax marathon worked best!
Is cabin well noise isolated on a freeway?
If there is a narrower than average car seat in the middle, will there be enough room for a small adult to sit on both sides?
You should also review the Volvo xc60
Hope you enjoyed your 4th of July holiday Kelly
Would love to see a review on the new dodge Durango r/t please.
You should maybe even review the Maserati levante
nice camera 👍
Could you please do the 2023 or 2024 Honda CR-V?
I have a 4Runner and even being a bigger 5 passenger SUV I would not do 3 across. This car is for someone with only 1-2 kiddos.
If I had a third kid I would definitely be looking at vehicles with a third row. My mom and sister have a RAV4 they are great cars and last forever.
I LOVE my 2016 Rav4 BUT we have 2 car seats and I can’t fit in between them if I need to hop in the back seat. I’m 5’3” and 145lbs and cannot sit flat. We’re looking to get a bigger car and I’m so sad to see this one go. Also, we paid 24k in 2019 and it’s worth 20k now, so very happy it’s held it’s value!
What if you put one of the car seats in the middle and you sit on the end? This works for us.
@@JustHavingFun_ never even thought of that. I wonder if mine will fit. But also my toddler messes with my infant so it might backfire lol
@@ReneeCalvert-71210 lol hope it works for you. Not sure of the difference in backseat space but we have a 2023 RAV4 prime
Love the rav4 they look good stylish don't like the seats wish they were leather
Am I allowed to say this? Didn't you just have a child? You look amazing! But honestly I come for the car content and for your angle on the vehicle's fitness for families. Thank you.
Good info , now do a expedition review :)
I read that the hybrid battery has to be changed out every 3-5 years and it could cost up to $5000. Is this true?
"Toyota says a Prius battery will last between 100,000-150,000 miles or between 8-10 years. Average cost of replacing a Prius’ hybrid battery is between $2,000-$2,600 according to Toyota." -- one search returns this, and you can easily verify it.
Not true. Still have the original Prius hybrid battery for 11 years and counting and is still at over 87% battery health. Have almost 200k miles on it
Have a 2015 Prius with 143k miles. Original brakes and hybrid battery. Oil changes, tire rotations, engine and cabin air filter only maintenance. Still gets 50mpg

Thank you for this video!! Please do the newly designed Honda CR-V! We are deciding between them 🤔
This new camera you’re using is not doing well with the blurring🙈
We rented a 2023 Rav4 Adventure for a trip from Missouri to Arizona and I gotta say great mpg, terrible trunk space for a family of 4, and the most uncomfortable seats you will ever sit in.
I drove from Chicago to the Northwoods of Wisconsin and felt the seats were very uncomfortable!
Mini van! Period.
I like the videos without the ring.
The world’s largest temp control dial😅 for sure
43k is crazy.
Gotta say, not a fan of the fake "bokeh" blurred background effect. Makes it harder to see the details of the car you're talking about if it's blurred out.
I like watching videos by The_Car_Mom :)
I just traded my 2016 RAV4 Hybrid for a Palisade. The RAV was... okay. I primarily liked the gas mileage of the vehicle. For one child it met my needs. The UppaBaby Vista can fit the opposite way in the trunk if you fold in the foot rest and center it in the trunk (forward to back vs side to side like shown). This helps if you need to get groceries on the of the vista. Without the seat it fits nicely forward to back anywhere in the trunk with a decent amount of space.
The newer models look like they've improved the vents slightly but my 2016 had ZERO vents in the back seat. This made for a VERY uncomfortable ride for my son, especially when he was in an infant seat and rear facing.
My last gripe was how wide the car is in general. My husband and I felt like we were knocking shoulders all the time and it was difficult to use the center console if someone else is in the front seat. Just cramped in general.
If you're looking for a second vehicle, a small SUV, or a city car this might be a good option. Or if you have a small family. I wouldn't really recommend this to haul 2 kids+stuff as a primary vehicle.

Noisy engine and ride is below average among class. The rear seat is smaller than CR V. Most of all , outdated, but dealers want premium price.
I wish Toyota would get rid of the blue logo for hybrids. Looks so dated to me.
Toyota is phasing that out on model redesigns, replacing it with the beyond zero symbol and badging on the rear of hybrid and EV’s
Simple-Boring-Reliable- =Toyota.Tired of these people trying to drag it on on how good it is.
Enjoy paying thousands when the hybrid battery needs replacement.
Why rav4 so famous ??? 😅😅
sup ma
Looks small..
🤢🤢🤢🤢
God bless you all. And may God show you and give you revelations of Jesus Christ. Amen. ❤
Hi Kelly you're so beautiful, do you have a review of the new 2023 Nissan Altima?
Hey Juan, you're a weirdo, she shouldn't have to deal with people like you
@@prestontiegs5022e kind, he may not know that it’s considered weird nowadays to compliment women on their appearance. He may have been sincere, your comment comes off equally disturbing.
