    It's more than adequate for city driving though.

    The Santa Fe is a very good alternative, that is if you can get over the brand.
    How about fortuner 4x4 3.0AT hindi na ba sya lacking power.

There must be a good reason why Toyota also allowed this same engine (2KD-FTV) to be used in a similarly passenger heavy payload vehicle like the Hi-Ace series (Commuter, Grandia GL, and Super Grandia).
    I think your right siguro better na ngayon itong 2.5 nila than 2005 ano sa tingin mo.

    I find the 2.5L D4D undepowered for the Fortuner although it's application to the Innova is just about right.

    As for me, the extra security of the Fort V's AWD system is worth the extra P200,000 premium plus as a bonus, you'll get the better 3.0L D4D engine.

    Please help me choose. For me I choose 4x2 coz hindi naman us madalas mag off road siguro once a year lang pag pumunta ng Aurora, Zamboanga lugar ni misis. Sabi naman ni misis why not 4x4 na lang who knows daw baka mag off road us. most of the time city driving lang talaga. Question mas okey bang 2.5 kayang kaya bang dalhin nya ang kaha ng hindi hirap. 3kids lang naman at misis ko ang laman. Alin bang mas fuel efficiency sa dalawa.....
    What is your average yearly mileage? How long do you plan to keep your vehicle? These factors are important when I did the math on mine.

    Again, why not the Everest sir? Its a more comfortable ride and its a capable off-road vehicle.

    Kung Fortuner talaga type mo(ganda kasi talaga itsura e), 4x4 na lang kung may budget naman na pandagdag. It's better to have the functionality when you need it. E kung yong yearly na pagpunta nyo ng Aurora, nalubak isang gulong mo at di maka-ahon at dis-oras na ng gabi at umuulan/bumabagyo/lumilindol. Kung naka 4x4 ka, kayang kaya nun umahon Kung 4x2 lang, baka maghintay pa kayo ng siyam-siyam ng hahatak. Minsan nga lang sa isang taon possibility, pero hassle pa rin di ba? Parang hepa, buti na yong nagpaturok na ng anti-hepa vaccine

    At samantalahin habang may go-signal si misis Madalas mga misis kasi importante makarating lang sa point A to B, hirap explain sa kanila ang feature ng CVT, 4X4, snorkel, etc. pag may additional cost na pinag-uusapan.

    on the topic:

    Fortuner:

    4x4 V 3.0 D4D - 163hp, 340 nm of Torque - P 1,663,000.00, sure winner
    4x2 G 2.5 D4D - 102 hp, 260 nm of Torque - P 1,413,000.00, the least to me, Toyota should start doing something.

    consider:

    Everest:

    4x4 3.0 Duratorque - 154hp, 380 nm of Torque - P 1,580,000.00
    4x2 2.5 Duratorque - 141 hp, 330 nm of Torque - P 1,282,000.00

    cheaper and they said better than the Fort for off-roading,
    plus the better ride and comfort.

    if there's a 2.5 m/t 4X2 fortuner pwede na. lalo na kung pati 3.0 4X4.

    bakit kasi walang m/t ang fortuner samantalang ang hi-lux, innova at hi-ace d4-ds ay meron?

    di tuloy makabili kahit utang

    Impressive specs sa Everest.

    Pero alam mo naman sa kotse, marami pa rin ang bibili dahil sa brand at porma. Ika nga eh, most buy with their heart not with their brains.

    Parang damit yan. People buy yung maganda and astig ang brand, kahit hindi comfortable.
