Everything is personal opinion, but I'm not a fan of them if I had to drive one every day. In saying that, I drive a 20 year old automatic Hiace and I love it.

They share the same 2.2 as the Corolla. Generally the D4D issues were with the Hilux and not many other models, save for a few issues with the AZ in the Caldinas. Most other stuff doesn't give trouble... generally speaking.

just for comparisons here are some other figures from vehicles I drive or have driven in the past couple of months

2003 Manual 2.5 legacy outback - 8.3l/100km
1992 auto 4.2td landcruiser 11l/100km general running, or 9.5l/100km trip
2013 suzuki swift 1.4 manual 5.5l/100km
2012 suzuki alto 1.0 manual 4.7l/100km
mid/late 90's suzuki cultus/baleno 1.5 auto 6.25l/100km

Manual rav's have 4.9 diff ratio in them, that combined with being a 'suv' type vehicle they get 'suv' type fuel economy. (guzzle guzzle guzzle)

HDJ81- 112AWKW @ 10psi), FC3S (Tarmac Spec 335rwhp@11psi), 3SGTE stroker - replacement body found.

Think the engine is the 2AD-FTV off the top of my head. As mentioned by Lloyd, its a 2.2.
