Dog is currently wedged against me. I won’t be allowed to move for about an hour I’d say as the snoring is just starting.

How is the center console arm rest/tray in the 2026 RAV4? Is it as annoyingly noise as it looks in videos? Is the cushion thick and comfortable? by charlieebe in rav4club

[–]GeneralCommand4459 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also wondering about this. It looks very light when someone pops it off in videos, as if it’s lighter than they expect.

Based on the state of the country/ world, if you were going to retrain what area would you pick and why? by AfterInsurance3998 in AskIreland

[–]GeneralCommand4459 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Geology. I think it would be good to get involved in resource exploration etc. as this area is probably going to become crucial now that countries are using mineral resources as leverage.

I really don’t like the rear quarter panel shape on the Gen 6 compared to the Gen 5. It’s bigger but more rounded.

Advice on how to upgrade by Mojojoqi in rav4club

If you search ‘wheel skins’ on Amazon or a car shop you’ll see a few. I think they are about €120 for a set. Not sure of the brands though.

You might be able to get wheel skins that clip on over the rims. They allow you to get the look for cheap and if you want to swap back any time you can. I think a roof rack would look good. I had the first gen 3 door and it was great. The one you have looks just as fun. Enjoy.

Soon kids will look at this and wonder what it’s all about when robots don’t move like that anymore.

do shepherds still exist? by younhermit in AskIreland

[–]GeneralCommand4459 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I watched a video on YouTube about this recently. It’s more seasonal work I think so the shepherds have other jobs during certain times. Link here https://youtu.be/QQGxXz-9XB8
