That would certainly be a good problem to have, but I suspect people with that much "extra" money didn't get to the financial state they're in by making idiotic financial decisions. If the book "The Millionaire Teacher" is to be believed at face... -
JJetboy replied to the thread What did you do with your Tundra or Sequoia this weekend?.Installed an OEM tailgate electric lock kit. Should be factory installed. And it really needs some decent install instructions. Took about 45 minutes, more than half of the time was trying to figure out the next step in the instruction set. I...

I agree, it's a lot of vehicle for $60K new. The updates they made to the platform in 2021 made it a lot better and more appealing. Auto hi-beams, auto wipers, adaptive cruise, better LED headlights, new infotainment screen, color gauge cluster...

Sequoia production starts today. Expect to see them trickling into lots soon.

JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.I think you've got a great point here. The crown (that's now a highlander with a different front clip in other markets now) is coming as some sort of SUV sportback that somehow fits in a market where the Highlander and venza and rx350 all already...

JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.My assumption based on historic pattern is that Toyota will continue the 5th gen 4runner forever with annual special appearance packages each year while eventually gaining weight and offering only a 150hp 4cyl and 3 speed automatic. Sales will...

What I heard was that it was going to be very boxy like a 70 series. I also heard a triple locked off-road lx is also being considered… I think it already has been green lighted for other markets.

I agree, it looks better in the darker colors. I like certain angles and I hate others. I like the front-end and the back isn't bad but the side profile, especially behind the rear doors back bothers me. The third window size and shape just...

All sources are saying soccer mom days for the GX are done with the new j180 being very boxy with triple lockers and 33s. Engine is the va35 with the sr tundra tune.
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.That's similar to what I've read. What makes me question it is that it looked like a GX body in the recent future vehicle showcase and the body was very prado evolution, not g wagon. But also why they'd not just use the lc300 GR Sport. The GR...

JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.I just think they look funny. Especially in person. It's like they took most of the styling from the renegade, but then added huge pillars to expand the volume and kept the same size windows. It doesn't help that the only ones I've seen in...

I can't find it on mobile, but I thought that some Sequoia trims did have the moving air dam, such as the Platinum/Capstone line. Also, I do think this is an unfortunate miss but given the primary audience they are catering to, not going to...
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.Correct. And so far no way to even add front recovery points on the tundra because the drop down front air dam moves right through the area they'd be. Sequoia doesn't have the moving air dam, so presumably it's just a matter of cutting holes in...

It is sad because you can still get V8 in the Nissan Titan and Armada for better pricing.

No front recovery hooks is a major let down. So the new tundras have no front recovery points either?
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.I think your right. Every generation of 4runner previously had a base and optional engine. I guess technically the 5th gen had the 4cyl for one year in 2wd models. But it really needed the 4.6 v8 option. Toyota has to know that 250hp isn't...

It might at first and people will grumble about it but eventually people will continue to buy what TMS thinks is best for everyone. I wish Toyota would be like the big three and still offer engine choices up to V8.
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.I've read some info from a pretty reliable source from Japan that the GX will be targeted at the G wagon and focused more on off road and have very body sheet metal. And it'll have the V35A. The same source said that the Tacoma and 4runner we're...

Hopefully the GX doesn't get the 4cyl as well.
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.Well... Mpg figures are decent. Better than the tundra by a few miles. So 18 useable gallons should get you almost 400 miles. So that's meaningfully more range than the 200 series had. Towing will probably require Jerry cans. But that's not a...
-
JJetboy replied to the thread 2023 Toyota Sequoia - 3rd Generation REVEALED.Yeah. They need an 18 foot people mover. I think at least part of the issue here is that the new Sequoia can only be sold for about 6-8 years before the emissions targets will require another drivetrain. The v35a isn't super efficient and the...

I agree that Toyota USA's handling of the 200 series was abysmal; the 100 was never cheap but it also wasn't stratospheric in pricing. The fact of the matter is that for Toyota to be viable in the US, they need a big ass 7 passenger 3 row SUV...

Spotted one out in the wild today. I have always thought they look better than the LX600 or LC300. Not buying one though.
