Know the honda is a little bigger this year, and comes with a V-6 as well as a V-4. Toyota only a V-4. Curious? When I bought a honda civic LX in the nineties, it was great. It came pretty much loaded, and the purchase was easy. When I looked into toyotas, everything was optional, and that made it difficult. My best friend wants a RAV, but I'm trying to get her to look at hondas too. I love both, but... any ideas?
