 I bought this RAV last summer and could not believe the road noise it generated on highways.  Didn't matter that I replaced all 4 tires...it was still so frustratingly loud, after a long trip, my ears would ring for hours.  Later I find out that the sound/vibration barriers are pretty much non-existent in this car.  The v6 engine is very jumpy and gas mileage is a joke.  Poor build quality is not something I associate Toyota with but in this case... Make sure you take one out on the highway before you buy...you won't believe your ears!!
