im not saying that it will be cheaper than the fort but i think the prices will be close at least.

i dont think anyone going to purchase a car at almost 2m price point will say it's pointless to spend a bit more to a better looking car, harrier to me is a better looking than fort, rav4 or fj (discontinued now). the pointless part is definitely not on the consumer as who doesnt want more variety. but it is definitely pointless to the distributors as it will eat up on thier other line up sales. they are still selling the hotcakes... so why add another variety right.
