    ARCHIVE Tandem Offroad - 2G Sequoia Buyer's Guide

    As a prospective buyer, this is pretty awesome and verbose! It's answered a lot of questions I have been pestering my Lextech friends about LOL Side note - did they cut out the fogs below? with a Tundra grill?

    Amazon Green at Lexus of Concord CA

    Amazon Green at Lexus of Concord CA

    Talk to me about the Sequoia

    haha I meant that those are the colors I really want ( not that I'd overlook a white/grey/silver/black, just not #1 preference) I lean towards the 2nd gen because of ISOFIX - I have a two year old, and another on the way, so the safety component is something I'm big on ( and I know the 18+...

    Talk to me about the Sequoia

    I do look a little further out sometimes, but only because I'm a snob for colors - e.g. gold/beige, green, etc. For the price of a GX470 it seems like I can buy a Sequoia with less miles. Not saying that isn't the way to go, heck I convinced my sister to get one. Just that $15-20k for one with...

    Talk to me about the Sequoia

    As much as I've been wanting a 200 series, the price is hard to justify Looking at a 16-18 Sequoia's - anything I should be aware of when looking at them? e.g. rust? End goal is 98% daily driver, home depot, kid hauler, with the odd off road back country excursion Probably would do a 2" lift...

    Pajero pajaro

    That thing is awesome! I've debated on selling my 89 ( honestly struggle to find time to wrench on it ) and pick up one of these.

    Picked up a MK1 Montero ( Dodge Raider ) this weekend

    200k on the odo, v6, 5spd, 89 Dodge Raider w/selectable 4wd - off road package too (LSD, autolocking front hubs, headlight washers, bouncy/suspension seat) She leaks oil, her suspension bushing are shot to s***, her 0-60 is like... 11 seconds, but she's mine, and I have already achieved...

    Rare/uncommon colors?

    I'm aware of the Peridot Green on the earlier 460s, and I think maybe Cashmere Metallic is uncommon, but what other colors would you guys view as being rare/uncommon?

    12-15 LX570 vs 16+ LX570

    I know not directed to me, but having had both touchscreen cars and mouse one, I like the mouse since I don't have to look at the interface to navigate it ( muscle memory + the haptic feedback - e.g. to go from bluetooth to XM radio, I know I move the mouse top right. Enter. Use middle finger on...

    12-15 LX570 vs 16+ LX570

    It's intoxicating. This thing is a literal jekyll and hyde metality. Cruise like a grampa, a two buttons and two twists of a dial and you're suddenly carving corners like a chubby Miata. I actually have some friends in Chicago that daily GSF's. They have snow mode :) If you happen to ever be...

    12-15 LX570 vs 16+ LX570

    Oh wow - I didn't think the approach angle would be so significantly different on the 16+ ... less ground clearance, slightly better wading depth? wat. You know, that is something I hadn't considered, but it is a feature I love on my current 16 GSF.

    12-15 LX570 vs 16+ LX570

    Tbh, the "mouse" has been easy for me to navigate in the GSF - I just changed the sensitivity settings ( and I honestly only use it to go from bluetooth to XM and back )
