*2023 Fortuner 2.4 GD-6 4x4 AT 62k-97k
*Pros:* Legendary Toyota reliability, 400Nm low down, 7 seats, 80L tank = 1000km range, great resale, proper 4x4, 7 airbags
*Cons:* 8.2L/100km real world, 10,000km service intervals are short, 3rd row tight for adults, body roll, expensive to buy

*2.4 GD-6 vs 2.8 GD-6:* 2.4 = 110kW/400Nm. 2.8 = 150kW/500Nm. 2.4 is cheaper to buy and run, but slower and less power for towing.

*Fortuner vs Hilux:* Same engine/gearbox/platform. Fortuner is more family focused with 7 seats and coil suspension rear.

*Things to check when buying:*
1. *Service history* - 10,000km intervals must be stamped
2. *4x4 system* - test low range + diff lock
3. *DPF* - if used for short trips only
4. *Warranty balance* - 3yr/100k km

The 2.4 GD-6 Auto is the sweet spot for fuel + reliability. 4x4 if you do gravel/bush. 4x2 RB if mostly tar.
