Understand where you are coming from. As it's actually gonna be a car financed by my employer and thus probably be replaced within 3-5 years I am leaning towards the Everest. Still, 5 years will be anywhere from 250,000km - 500,000km and that could be an expensive disaster for my employer.

Best of luck with whatever you get. If you do plumb for the Ford 2lt Biturbo please let us know how long it takes before you get stuck at the side of the road, in Nakon Nowhere. My guess is 6 months.

They do and I abhor them as well, quite impractical design solution. In case of getting a Fortuner I would ask the dealership to remove the seats right away.

That's what we did but that brings it down to a 5 seater. I like the ford design much better as the seats fold down and out of the way so no need to have them removed. Just not so sure about Ford Thailand as the had some issues in the past.
