- It’s crazy to think that it’s been one year since I’ve owned my First Generation/1995 Toyota RAV4, JDM, AWD! This is my 1-year ownership update.

I bought a 95 JDM Rav4 laat year for mail delivery
It ended up being my personal car after I left the post office.
I love it
The only issue Ive run in to is parts for certain things dont seem to be available
I had that issue when trying to change the distributor cap. The OEM part fits US made vehicles, but not Japanese
@@theOGRAV4 I've had some things fit.
Spark plugs, blower motor for the A/C (though I had to use the old fins and reverse the polarity), and such
But other things like the axles (CV boot ripped) while the same size had a different spline for some reason.
Amazing video! I love the quality put into filming and editing. The video looks professional and I love the beautiful places you chose to film. You presented a very realistic description of what it's like to own the old RAV4. Yes, it's kind of hard to work on, rattles a lot, and is loud on the highway. I totally agree about the sound deadening. It doesn't do much, and it's a ton of work for a small improvement. The RAV4 is very capable off road with 2 exceptions: rock crawling and steep hills. It doesn't have a transfer case with 4 low. The engine will just die on a steep incline because it doesn't make enough torque.
you're the one who got me started on this journey, brother. so thank you! 👊
Awesome I have one too and I am happy you like gen 1
Hi!! I saw you yesterday in Chico driving near Home Depot. i was in a black dodge ram following you and checking out your rav4. I love the raptor liner!
That's awesome man! 👌 yeah I was in that area yesterday. Thanks for the love and for checking out our channel!
Hello I am purchasing a 98 JDM All Wheel drive. It will soon be driven 145 miles a day on my mail route, and the roads get crappy in winter. Its an automatic J model. Plan to video how it does and if I like it as you do yours.
Nice! I look forward to hearing how you like your RAV4. This vehicles are so much fun.
Awesome video! Love your rav4!
I was curious on your thoughts about changing out the lights to the later style. And if it’s worth sourcing original Toyota roof racks or using a universal aftermarket.
Thanks! Again, love your rav4. The paint makes it bulletproof from rust or aging metal issues.
Lots of people like changing the lights for newer one. LabCoatPaul has a video where he shows you how to do th rear ones. I personall like to keep mine original. :)
as far as roof rack, the OEM will typically be a little more expensive, but you can probably find them relatively cheap at a junk yard. It think they look quite better than any aftermarket one
Super buenos videos. Saludos desde El Salvador!
Gracias mi paisano guanaco! Saludos!

hi nice car i have a similar one and would like to put a bulbar on it like yours do you have a link for this for europe?
Google search is your best option.
Have you tried to get floor mats for for your RHD RAV4.
Yeah, I got a set of the universal ones off of Amazon. Had to do some cutting but now my carpet is protected.
I am an Asian spectator. Can you please give me a bumper eBay ?
