Re: 1M budget, what will you get fortuner or alterra
Between the two, I'd probably get the Alterra (if you're just comparing the 4x2 variants) as it has the better engine (since the 4x2 Fortuner only gets the 2.7L VVTi & 2.5L D4D).
Though personally, I'd just consider other vehicles (including the 4x4 Fortuner) since I can't stand the looks of the Alterra (doesn't do justice to the handsome D-Max).

Re: 1M budget, what will you get fortuner or alterra
for that budget you could go for brand new with strada or tucson. otherwise, i'll make that a downpayment for a new 3-liter Fortuner (for power). however, please read threads re: pump issues/others on fortuner crdi engines on the first and earlier editions to serve as precaution in purchasing second hand fortuner. the issue with isuzu is still the notorious ratling sound & vibration of the engine unless your used to it...
Re: 1M budget, what will you get fortuner or alterra
Alterra is better in fuel economy, ride and that's about it I think... Oh yeah, the sound package.
The Fortuner is just too overrated! Get the Alterra for the reason that it's a lot rarer on the road. Better comfort and space. Consequence may be the looks though... But that's just me.

Sorry guys, I just can't help it. If I'm buying a used SUV with a 1M budget, I'd definitely buy the Land Rover Defender 110 300 Tdi '96-'97 model. You can get it at around 800-900k then use the remaining for some minor repairs and mods. You'd definitely have a head turner.
Don't mind me. I just wanted to blurt it out.
But between fortuner and alterra? 4x2? hmmm..... alterra, due to the better engine.

Fortuner definitely! The Alterra is really an eyesore to me, bibili lang ako ng Alterra kung morgue o puninarya negosyo ko, mukha kasi pang karo yung Alterra . Why not consider gen 2.5 Pajero? maybe older than both but looks better.
