Fortuner 4x2 2.5AT or 4x4 3.0AT
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.....

delikado ang fortuner, dami nang pinatay na owners nyan sa carjack incidents.

For diesel: 4x4 CRDI SantaFe. Global model car, 5-star crash test rating, very fast but economical.

For petrol: 4x4 V6 SantaFe or 4x4 V6 Outlander.

3.0 V ka na para di bitin. or the santa fe.

The 4x2 is adequate for city driving. Mahihirapan lang sya kung pataas or incline ang daan at lalo na kung puno ang sasakyan.

The 4x2 is more fuel efficient since it does not have the added weight of the 4x4 transfer case.

Get the 4x4 only if you plan to pass by slippery surfaces ie. maputik at madulas na daanan. Other than that, save money and go for the 4x2 instead.

Means to say ba na kayang kaya nyang dalhin ang six to seven passenger. How about going baguio kase meron ganong daan dito kung papunta kami ng Zamboanga galing davao atleast ones a year kami kung pumunta. Fortuner 4x2 2.5AT.... pa rin....

I find the 2.5 lacking in power, especially when overtaking.

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.

I have a friend who has a 2005 Fortuner 2.5 D-4D 4x2. Well according, it is quite underpowered going up in Baguio. I dont know for sure....I think its subjective. 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).
