I get that but the Prado is so boring and unengaging a drive. The Everest handles and drives so much better and the interior space difference is marginal at best.
Again, the Hilux isn't bad. I didn't say that. I said that with the new Ranger, it's average and you'd be mad to look at the Hilux given its so dated and the drive again is so poor.
I give the Ranger and Everest a hard time on this forum, I know. But they are really great cars in the segment and are above the offerings from Toyota. Heck, I recovered so many Prados at Fraser Island with my Everest when we went there. They aren't all that off road nor on road. I just don't understand the fandom around them.
