My wifes' 2001 RAV4 has 145K miles. Just the usual maintenance items (ie., oil, brake pads, etc.) Paid someone to change the struts back in December(no frill hassle). Otherwise, very easy to to work on. Last week I changed out the O2 sensor that took 15 minutes. 5 of which was spent looking for my crowfoot O2 socket. Engine bay looks like an ocean compared to our cars. It still amazes me that the RAV4 weighs 2,800lbs versus 2,900 for 930. That's the only negative I give the RAV4 since my wife drives it with the kiddos.....

Also, you can't go wrong with CRV. My Acura Legend just turned 20 years. AC has never been serviced and original Freon still in it. Not a big deal until you've own BMW's, etc.

GLWSearch!
