      what do you think about the VIN that can be seen from the front outside? I’m a little concerned about that because I read that people can make a copy of your key knowing your VIN. is that true?

    I have a 2023 Rav4 xle hybrid and I love it!! Personnnally, i prefer the plastic finish for the side rocker and lower front bumper VS the painted from the SE. I would fear for rock chip on those painted surface..
    For climate controle, your are right!! I love those physical knobs to control the temperature!!

    I really appreciated this video as I’m thinking of getting a RAV4 XLE hybrid premium package. One thing I’m wondering about is that I noticed that the cladding around the wheel wells and the rocker panels is finished with piano black as well as the front and rear areas. Does the RAV4 hybrid have the same finish in these areas? Thank you!

    • @brianruperti

    Hi!! Hope everything is good Brian. Just have a question. I had a problem with my engine cover of the Rav4. An animal apparently like the material of the rubber and he ate it. Do you know any spray or chemical or steps that I can take towards this? Something that I can use for all the engine bay since I don't know if cables are in danger too. Thank you in advance men!!

    I prefer a big screen at least 10 inch because I have to use GPS when I'm driving. When I consider buying a vehicle, the screen is my first consideration. I really hope the RAV4 in 2024 or later has a big screen. Hope Toyota's decision makers can see my message.

    Hey Brian.. i was wondering, can they do leather seats instead if you asked the dealership?

    • @brianruperti
      @brianruperti  Рік тому +1

      Hey yes most dealers have access to a third party person but you pay extra for the install.
      Asking for leather from the Toyota factory isn’t a thing, as nice as that would be.
      I hope that helps.

    Why is there no cassette or CD player available even as an option? I can see that cassettes are no longer made though. Does this mean you have to “stream” all your music with a subscription after the trial period?

    Nice looking Rav, but I prefer my 2023 Limited hybrid in Blueprint w/beige interior. 😊 Currently averaging ~43MPG here in south-western Ontario. Very smooth riding and not as noisy as the forums would have you believe. My biggest quibble is the seats, which I find uncomfortable and am augmenting them with memory foam cushions. Yeah, I'm getting old!
