04 Rav only came with the I4, v6 started in 06.
Really as with any used car I'd clean it up with some regular synthetic (PP, M1, SynPower, Edge, whatever) or a high mileage oil for maybe 5000 miles for a change or two and then transition to 7500 miles.
Oil consumption could be PCV or valve guides which are both suspect on these Toyota's (valve guides have always been a Toyota problem, PCV on these since they are lifetime screw in and jiffy lubes don't take the time to ask owners if they want to replace them). I'm not sure what you can do about the ring TSB. Our Highlander is before that time, presumably with the "bad" rings and we don't burn oil. Then again it's always lived on synthetic oil with regular changes (5000 to 7500).
Not to single out one group, but the same engines are used in Scions and you can really see what happens when they are neglected when you look at youtube videos of it. It's a robust design but subject to the same things any engine is, neglect seems to cause valve guide issues early as they get buildup on them and wear prematurely when they are starved for oil.
And edit: no STP, if you want to try a "thicker" oil to mask the problem try a 40 weight high mileage oil. That would do the same thing but cost less and do a better job otherwise.
