In this harsh economy save your dime and purchase a 2007-2008 Honda Pilot with excellent interior. It has all the accessories that you'll need. Reverse Cam, beautiful leather upholstery etc. 08065040784 whatasapp.

Both are ok

The pilot is an SUV has better off road capabilities than the highlander. If you are picking pilot, the TOURING should suffice.

The highlander is a high scale CUV, not bad in the off road arena but not a true offroader, has better mpg than the pilot. If picking the highlander, the Limited should suffice.

Greatly appreciated nurey. I am leaning towards the Pilot then. But I heard they have transmission issues. Is this true? Any known issues I should be concerned that would make me wanna pick the Highlander?

Transmission issues with Honda pilot, nope, nothing of such except you use wrong ATF or maintenance done with nonchalant attitude.

The Highlander limited isn't as loaded as a pilot Touring. Baba pick the pilot and smile everyday for the rest of your relationship with the car.

You did be surprised both are related but different target market and one has more cargo room.

If I wanted to go low profile, rear vehicle, off road capability and yet blends in appropriately and I want a Toyota, my first pick is the TOYOTA FORTUNER,

I forgive you.
Fortuner with cheap build quality and inferior accessories.
You compare the 2.7L over the 2gr-fe v6.

Rather than going for fortuner . I'd rather pick the Prado. Besides both cars are the same thing.

I know the fortuner is just an hilux in suv form, but the car isn't really bad

Quick on the line even with the 2.7L engine, the TRD sportivo is well padded, has third row seat though a bit cramped up with leather and reverse camera, the 2008 face-lift isn't bad at all.

If you are a fan of the Toyota 4runner/hilux surf, you did like the fortuner as it looks like and outdated vehicle but performs brilliantly well. Also has a tremendous ground clearance other vehicles would wish for in Nigeria

With tremendous ground clearance comes tremendous rollover tendency.

Wonder why Toyota makes Fortuner and Previa. I don't think Fortuner is more off road capable than 4runner.

Apart from ground clearance, I think they are both capable of achieving same feat.

The fortuner and previa are due to stringent rules in Asian countries concerning car size and engine. The sienna and 4runner have more tax associated, so to counter the effect it would have on sales, they decide to down scale them to something different
