My father's 2013 Sequoia just hit 250k miles Normal Oil changes and did brakes/rotors once The car has bulletproof reliability

[@DriversOnly]

Nice, yes they last forever

[@leonardoruiz1650]

Get those brakes check out they probably need to be replaced maybe not the rotors but worth checking out

I would love to own one but they don't sell them in Sweden. We have the Landcruiser though which is nice.

This SUV is bulletproof. Take care of it and it will go over a million miles.

Sequoias are bullet proof. My dad just bought a brand new 4Runner so I’m taking over his 04 sequoia. 275,000 miles and EVERYTHING besides tires and brakes are still factory. Not a single problem. I’m going to tackle the dreaded water pump and timing belt just to get the preventative stuff going as well put some nice spark plugs in it as those are still factory as well.. My goal is, my son (7 years old) will be driving this when he first gets his license. Confident I can hit 600,00 miles no problems

I worked on these, you should see the white one all blacked out,it is killer

[@cidlopez]

I just picked one of these up last month. Love it. The mpg gets lots of knocks but right now I’m averaging .6 mpg less than the 16 mpg I was getting on my 2017 Titan. For an “old” engine i was expecting worse. This vehicle is fun to drive. Drives like a car, not like a truck. And with a family of 5 this has plenty of room. You can’t go wrong. If I had to ask for one thing to improve I’d say put in a 9 or ten speed transmission to improve mpg and that’s it. Don’t touch the 5.7L engine!

[@margabaggio9576]

Mine is 20 years old and still going !

[@Gypsum-pro]

Next SUV is either a 4Runner or Sequoia. My Suburban and Expedition have had so many problems. Enough with Ford and GM.

[@theoffice9803]

I thought the same way but I opted in for Sequoia because we don't do too much off-roading and we wanted something bigger and Sequoia is the best in class. Never get an American SUV we owned expedition and suburban and both were nothing but problem. Expedition was really really bad. It was always dead on driveway with one thing after another.

[@leonardoruiz1650]

It's fun when people post comments like this. Never mind that Toyota is outdated, has smallest engine connected to 5 speed and worst fuel economy. It's Toyota, so it has to be good right? Anybody actually realizes that it's only "good" because they sell you very old tech? If you think Toyota badge guarantees you won't have issues, go visit any Toyota dealer service department. And if you live above the rust belt and considering body on frame Toyota, they rust like there is no tomorrow.

[@andrewrios2295]

I have the 2006 Sequoia as my work truck and it's wrapped in my company decals. I keep a 7 foot A frame and 24ft aluminum extension ladder strapped to the top daily. It's my favorite vehicle I've ever owned. Over a Toyota T-100, Ford lariat, Acura, Nissan Altima. Old school F-150. I took out the third row seating to build a custom double deck tool storage. Also have 3-12" Rockford Fosgate P3s and an 8000w amp. Stock Alternator powers it effortlessly. I change the oil regularly and preventative maintenance regularly. Overall I'm just saying this SUV is my favorite and a Dream come true would be to have my Nexx Generation Construction company logos all over that super stout looking 2020 Sequoia. Toyota is just so good at making the most reliable vehicles!!!

[@MAA_in_Texas]

After I get my use out of my 4Runner, this is what I want to get next. It’s literally a beefed up, more family friendly version of the 4Runner

[@gleninc1]

My 2014 Sequoia has a center console arm rest that slides forward several inches, enough to where it covers over the 3rd cup holder. This allows me to write notes easier. Does the 2020 model center console/armrest slide forward? Try it out by squeezing the handle but instead of lifting the console try sliding forward.

Thoughts on getting this TRD Pro or waiting for new redesign model and engine..?

[@SuperSnakePlissken]

The 2010-2022 Sequoia is the most underrated SUV ever made. For the price there is no better value for what you buy. Truly the most reliable and powerful for its size V8, tons of excellent room, and reliability out the wazoo. My wife and I bought a 2018 Sequoia Limited 4x4 brand new in 2017 and raised our four kiddos in it. Ironically, my older brother and his family (same size) have a Ford Expedition MAX Ecoboost and he has had several expensive issues happen including the replacement of the turbos at around 145,000'ish miles. It cost him $5,500 to replace them. Had a bunch of oil leak issues and had to essentially replace the front end of that truck the year or two prior to the expensive replacement of the turbos. Overall, he told me he's spent $8,000+ keeping that Expedition on the road. As for my Sequoia we are up to 121,000'ish miles already and I have literally spent zero dollars outside of regular maintenance. I am getting ready to replace the shocks and struts because they have warn out which will be expensive, but that's going to be the first big maintenance bill I have done. I'm having the spark plugs done at the same time. Finally, anyone moaning and groaning about mpg shouldn't be buying vehicles this size. My brothers Expedition MAX ecoboost gets nearly the same mpg my Sequoia gets which is 14 city and about 17-17.5 highway. His is 14-15 city and 18-19 highway. By the way he's told me when it is just him driving he can get 20-21, but once you get the family in there and any kind of load the turbos are always spinning and that Ecoboost drinks fuel.

[@jsboening]

I’m always surprised at its short turn radius. I swear it has a smaller turn radius than my old wrangler unlimited.

[@JRKA]

[@Agent77X]

[@speedymanwcc1819]

So is that a differential lock button next to the rear window button? Is it a rear differential locker?

[@Jackmerius_Tacktheretrix]

Its for the center differential. This has a gear driven transfer case. It has a differential gear system instead of a chain drive. This makes it possible to drive in 4wd and make full lock turns without the drivetrain binding as long as you dont have the center diff locked because it allows the power to split between from rear and left right. When you turn all 4 tires take a different path and this rotate at a different speed. Having a center diff allows all 4 wheels to rotate at different speeds sp it doesnt bind. When you lock the center diff the front an rear are permanently locked like the chain drive on a part time 4wd system on almost every other vehicle. It will then bind just like a Chevy or Ford would if you put it in 4wd. The gear driven transfer case is a much better system. Your La d Cruisers and Land Rovers and any other vehicle with a full time 4wd system has this type of setup. I have a land rover discovery with this same type of setup and love it. Just out it in drive and go. Only difference is I cant shift it into 2wd because it's full time 4wd.

Good review but just as a suggestion when you are going to sit in the car to show leg room or internal spacing of the car you have to tell us how tall you are. There didn't see like there was that great of leg room in the sequoiaTRD but again u could be over 6' tall or if you are 5'7" that is terribly small spaced suv. It is very hard to tell on screen the proportions.
