8300 km & 25 days: Arunachal & Meghalaya road trip in my Fortuner 4x4

Another thing I noticed is the presence of Toyota service centers everywhere.

Last week, I completed a road trip to Arunachal and Meghalaya with my Fortuner 4x4 AT, covering 8300 kilometers in 25 days. The car was simply awesome. Be it smooth six-lane highways, broken roads, or flooded roads, whatever situation was thrown at it, the car took it without breaking a sweat.

I had done a couple of road trips with the BMW 3GT that I owned before the Fortuner. Though I took some very bad roads with the BMW, the main difference with the Fortuner is how stress-free it felt. With the BMW, there was always a small worry in mind if the car would be able to cross a particular bad stretch, what happens if it breaks down somewhere, etc. With the Fortuner, there was no such stress.

Another thing I noticed is the presence of Toyota service centers everywhere. I got the 20,000 kilometers service done in Siliguri.
