Ive been searching for a RAV4 for weeks now and Im honestly about to lose it. My old Corolla finally kicked the bucket last Tuesday and I need a car like yesterday because the bus commute to my job in North Austin is taking two hours each way. I have about $22k saved up which I thought would be plenty for a decent 2017 or 2018 model but everything I see online is either way overpriced or sold the second it hits the market.

I spent all last night on FB Marketplace and Craigslist and I found a couple that looked okay but then I started reading about these battery drain issues on the 2019-2021 models and then some other site said to avoid the 2013-2015 ones because of transmission shudder. Now Im just sitting here staring at my screen completely paralyzed because I dont know which years are actually safe and every local dealer I call says they dont have anything on the lot under $30k which is insane for a used car.

If anyone knows someone selling one privately around Pflugerville or Round Rock please let me know. I really need to get this sorted by Monday so I dont have to keep asking my sister for rides. Does anyone have leads on listings that arent just those contact for price bait and switch ads? I just want a reliable car for work...
