Toyota Fortuner 2018
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Bruce McMahon had this to say at the time: Toyota’s Fortuner Crusade is a sensible answer for those looking for a family-friendly off-road wagon, not a faux four-wheel drive. It has the style and off-road abilities to suit a number of applications and, despite being based on a commercial vehicle chassis, offers composed ride and handling for a high-riding, beach or bush-capable vehicle. Still unsure whether the top grade Crusade is worth almost $10,000 extra over a GXL model for the family.

What car should I buy for $70,000?
You’ve pretty much covered the field there, so it should come down to what you want from your car. Do you want comfort, safety, fuel efficiency, offroad capability, cabin space? If you are mostly driving on the highway, then a diesel SUV is probably the best bet. I would rule out a dual-cab ute because of comfort, unless you need the flexibility a ute gives you. I would rule out a hybrid, they’re not at their most efficient on the highway; they’re better suited to town use. Based on your annual mileage I wouldn’t keep the car any more than 3-4 years, that way you’ll have a decent resale value when you get out of it.
