How often should I get my Toyota RAV4 serviced?

I just got a new Toyota RAV4 and I'm wondering how often I should take it to get serviced. What are the general guidelines for routine maintenance and what should I expect to pay?

As a general rule, you should get your Toyota RAV4 serviced every 5,000 to 7,500 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. However, if you do a lot of city driving or frequently tow heavy loads, you may want to get it serviced more often.

Routine maintenance can vary in cost, but you can expect to pay around $100-$200 for each service. Keep in mind that it's important to stay on top of maintenance to avoid more expensive repairs down the road.

It's also a good idea to consult your Toyota owner's manual for specific maintenance recommendations for your specific model and year. It's always better to be proactive and stay ahead of any potential issues.
