Also try driving it since there is a marked difference between the size of a Fortuner vs a CX9/Explorer. Its probably 7-8 inches wider and that makes a massive difference is parking basements and tight roads. I drove my friend's fortuner and it was night and day in terms of size.
thanks for the insights bro. i think in terms of length, our 3rd gen kia grand carnival is still longer. sa lapad naman halos konti lang ang difference at pwede silang side by side sa garage namin kung sakali.

si GC ang usually workhorse namin pag long trip for obvious reasons (mas matipid at komportable) kaso nag 2 days sila sa Manila at aabutan sya ng coding.
