A fair assessment, I thought.

that was a "given".

I don't think it's possible to get a new D4 for $70,000....try $80,000

It is possible to get a Prado for $56,000

And the Jeep , it's laughing at those prices.....but best on road? My neighbour has one , it's road manners are on par with my Ford Ranger.

I think the test was biased towards the D4 right from the start. It should have been against the LC200 and Patrol.

I just did a search and cannot find a new D4 listed under $80,000.

Most were $84k-$100k without dealer/delivery/rego fees etc.

The Patrol isn't competitive without a diesel engine. The D4 is much better than the overpriced, overweight, thirsty LC200.
