It will be a good candidate to extend COE. I meant my car in Thailand, the Fortuner. Not SG. For SG car, I just leave it at the moment. The crown in China passed down to me but is used by others as I cannot go back China. This one in Thailand is also not mine. The SG one is my own money. So I do whatever I like later on. Just company car got company policy. So I can just dream on it only ↡ Advertisement 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of cos like I say, I dreaming lah. Boss will never allow that even though I make a lot from them. It's a policy in company not to over show the car. So probably I push this one to high mileage and then change to 2.8 AWD model at best liao 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find Fortuner has better ground clearance. No worry about potholes or ponding. Fortuner 4WD is similar to Hilux. It does not have an open diff. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safety I think most are safe lah. Just you cannot change the boss thinking of 低调。。。if you know him, he invest in his employees. Just he got his thinking what should be driven and what not to be driven. Just like his brother say, "he (my boss) donno how to drive". Walk to market, then ask the wife come and fetch the items. And I also don't feel he donno how to drive. He just like walking although he got car. So he just got ideas for employee that should not have Mercs, BMW or Lexus. Should have Audi for top bosses and Toyota for his Higher managers. (just we donno his systematic thinking only) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
