I just got one, this exact one actually. Love every part of it including the outdated interior. It rides soooooo smooth. It's crazy. I don't care about the gas mileage. You know that when you buy it. This thing is worth every penny in my opinion

[@jsboening]

Have you towed anything with it? Is the suspension too soft while towing? Thx.

[@maxcurry9667]

@@jsboening Have only towed a small yard trailer with a riding lawn mower on it. It did just fine. I think the springs are progressive rate so they should do just fine under load.

Found a 2020 for $57K, you think I should pull the trigger or is that too much for the 2020? It’s got 200 miles on it.

[@davandjenn618]

Got a black TRD PRO Sequoia March 6th went on a 600 mile trip and loved every minute of driving it.Great review thank you.

[@stevep5736]

I love my 2010 Platinum. Reliable, safe family hauler. Long trips ? Outstanding comfort ! Will never go back to GMC Yukon Denali. (A POS). We love our Sequoia !!!!

[@naveenthemachine]

Ol reliable family off-road beast.

[@ISLANDSKIN]

Im about to lift my 2021 limited. Looked at Ford and GM products but couldnt get past the reliability issues my friends have with theirs. I just love that my Sequoia wont leavenmy family stranded on the side of the road.

[@masonchen9580]

Hello, I really like the way that you review cars, you show and explain them so understanding. Thank you!

[@DriversOnly]

Thanks Mason

[@ToogiDesign]

i just bought a 2008 platinum edition and its remarkably similar in features to this 2021 TRD...13 years without much update, that's pretty crazy!

[@jisohno2555]

i have a tundra trd pro, i don’t get tired of listening to my exhaust 😊👍

[@Mach.1]

Love the Sequoia but it needs a serious redesign and update.

[@jerryp2433]

No. Everytime Toyota changes something I hate it.

[@ryanday9737]

However...they've made it for so long, they've nearly perfected it.

[@fatboynip]

It has 2GS tail lights 😰

[@jimmy22334]

It’s getting fully redesigned either next year or the year after.

[@sammymadden3839]

I have to say the interior is very outdated now and The front end looks a little outdated as well🤷‍♂️ but don’t get me wrong I still love it!

[@kd5teq129]

I just picked up a Magnetic Gray 2021 Sequoia TRD Pro, your reviews definitely influenced the decision. Thanks!

[@mowcowbell]

Exxon approves of this beast.

[@refineme]

We love our 2016 platinum. My wife and kids call it the Momma SUV Bus. Just hit 80k miles driving the kids to school and road trips. We went to get our Xmas Tree and we threw it in 4x4 and literally drove around a huge line of smaller crossovers stuck in the mud.

[@joskjj3625]

Although I’m extremely upset that we lose the landcruiser Atleast we have sequoia,tundra,4Runner and Tacoma to be fair unlike most of the world

[@huanronghu4432]

stay tuned because there is a new land cruiser that is coming to the states soon fully redesigned. It is likely to be the land cruiser prado aka lexus gx twin corporate sibling that the other world markets get

[@adam10532]

Would anybody happened to know the exact height in that configuration with TRD pro roof rack asking because I want to know if I can clear my garage.

[@LEO-qw6lz]

I never reallly thought about buying one of these until now....I guess that's what the purpose of these videos are for right. But I actually love the size and features of this trim...The only thing I don't like is I don't have 60k 😥

[@smattt]

😂

[@AldermanFredCDavis]

LOVE EVERYTHING about the Toyota Sequoia (given what it is............meaning, it's silly to expect a full-size, body on frame SUV to get 35 mpg). Would not change a single thing. Would love to pick up a 2021 (especially if this is the last year before a refresh) in about 6 or 7 years. Can't afford a new one, and even if I could, NO MORE new vehicles for me, I am too obsessive about expensive 'new' things.

[@I-am-a-Toyota-4runner]

This is why I love TRD pro’s than sport cars

[@hugojr5290]

Keep the Japanese car review coming!!

[@roninmastermind4284]

Great video!!!! Just got one sequoia 2 generation, and I love it

[@BrianODonohue]

A Beauty of a Beast!

[@daverose9987]

Great review of a great car. My niche is the Sienna just from a functional perspective for 20 years. But I just love the Sequoia.

[@preoksaha4504]

They’re getting rid of the land cruiser and are keeping the sequoia so I predict they will redesign this very soon...

[@starmanming6408]

Everything is a beast on the car except the tiny lcd screen

[@ryanday9737]

Totally agree. There is an aftermarket screen that is HUGE. I won't buy that because I tried a similar one for a different vehicle and it was a disaster so no more aftermarket,dash upgrade for me! I am hoping Toyota puts a nice big screen in the next version.

[@joskjj3625]

Can’t wait for the next gen tundra/Tacoma

[@rahulrane1658]

I like your presentation style. Saw your Ridgeline video too

[@overlandersnorthwest]

I'm buying the 2021 Blizzard Peal Nightshade today.

[@matiasferrer6400]

That infotainment screen looks way out of place.

[@alexlee3787]

The 2021 Toyota Sequoia trd pro is the more compact suv that can you by Today for Toyota model for the year of its brand new model for its model and brand new model for its own

[@dj_ath]

This looks amazing thanks George

[@shannonmurphy5137]

Great review .. Thank you .

[@nickp8373]

Great review. I think the Platinum is the better choice though. Hopefully Team Toyota is watching and takes your advise of keeping that awesome V8

[@DriversOnly]

Thanks Nick!

[@smattt]

Why do you think the Platinum is a better choice? Serious question as I'm considering both - family hauler.

[@edlyborland4793]

Hello I can't wait to drive the Luna Rock Sequoia I a fan of this SUV thanks for u good work

[@kilmerartmamaril3002]

Stunning beast

[@judge_executioner]

Why does no-one fold down the second row? I want to see all the space

[@denisewilson4449]

Very good review

[@tacoma171]

It’s just the damn interior that kills it for me. Beautiful machine on the outside but I can’t understand why they haven’t done much inside. It still has the basic setup of the 07-13 Tundra. Not even the latest Tundra (which itself gets criticized up and down). I don’t get it Toyota!

[@ejfury7481]

This is probably a stupid question but does the screen on the car actually glitch like that or is it because of the camera

[@smattt]

Camera

[@aamertaj6173]

Price

[@kimnewling5728]

I dont like the exterior design. Wait.....I looked longer and its not that bad. But just ok. When you opened the doors....wow! Look at all the room! That is excellent. Sounds like you really liked the comfort. Huge plus. As for the technology its really lacking. Good thing they're doing an upgrade. Toyota should keep the 5.7 litre engine as an option. I doubt they will. 14 mpg is pretty pitiful. Price seems a bit high, but its still better then a comparable chevy. Great video. Merry Christmas George!!

[@JoshS2021]

We had a Sequoia when they first came out and while my mom didnt like how it drove since its on a truck chasis, I loved how much room there was for all of our outdoor activity things. If it was a lower price I would get one in a heartbeat but I'll stick with the 4Runner lol

[@kimnewling5728]

@@JoshS2021 you made good choice. Just wish Sequoia was in more people's price range. Fun to see next year's upgrade.

[@fatboynip]

This has the taillights off the 2006-11 GS

[@hangngoaigiare]

Hi George. We are George. Surprise see you here George.

[@theofficialpeterkim]

Only thing I wish they had on this is the 38 gallon tank.

[@refineme]

True indeed. But with us driving the kids, we basically stop every hour cause someone always needs to pee, or get food, or dig out a movie.

[@jsboening]

That would be nice especially while towing.

[@EdwinRodriguez-mm5ym]

I love with ally heart all Toyotas. In Puerto rico in the 8os up to now Toyota is the number one most reliable in Puerto Rico we used to well my dad he a 68 Mitsubishi lancer we Mitsubishi Celeste we bought a Mitsubishi champ a 86 Toyota pick up 22 re enginemy dad put a million and half miles sold for 4500 to his neighbor pass by his house every day true story I own 2013 Sequoia limited love it every day I be honest I hate white people when the review Toyotas they always say oh cheap plastic interior who care u right best v8 ultra reliable this Sequoia better than infinity 5.6. Way better u lucky to pass 100000 miles on gmc Ford n Nissan junk Toyota lover forever thank you Toyota for .the years of lovely car I love Celica gts I love the fj cruiser I love the 4 runner n Corollas

[@riosafado]

60.000 budget, this one or 4runner?

[@user-mu2cl7rq1f]

Hello from Russia 👍

[@Tnapvrvideo]

Nice share! Which version of the 2021 Sequoia has the highest towing capability: maximum trailer tongue weight that it can handle and the maximum gross trailer weight that it can tow? Thanks!

[@FREDIS-ev8nn]

Toyota should just copy the new sienna, both interior and exterior for their new sequoia.

[@zackkegler7062]

Currently have a 2019 sequoia trd sport that the wife drives. Its a good vehicle but its lacks technology and amenities compared to the fords and chevy.

[@f5tornadeau]

The amenities in Fords and Chevys are unnecessary, expensive, and make the vehicle less reliable. The Expedition’s parking brake is a button with electronic actuators to engage and disengage. My leg still works. I’ll take the reliability of a cable. That’s the main reason why we went Toyota over anything else. To each their own.

[@XxAlexanderProxx]

I don't like the Dash on the new Tundra. That is why I buying this one before they change it. I don't like that big screen on my face. This one looks clean and simple.

[@collinhan399]

Is this 2000 sequoia?

[@nickp8373]

You can always buy the next new Ford or Chevy and spend your time and money in the repair shop. But hey, at least you’ll have massaging seats.

[@joskjj3625]

You didn't tell us how much cargo room thee is with the 2nd row down. I guess I'll have to watch someone else's video for that.

[@cerny4444]

Or do a search ???

[@ks1ngh27]

I rented older model in 2016 for a road trip. This suv is not fun to drive at all. Steering is very vague. Hope that has changed since then. Suburban on the other hand was so fun to drive.

[@jsboening]

The problem with suburbans is they rust out so fast here in the rust belt. My sequoia has 130,000 miles on it and 6 Michigan winters and still rust free.

[@michaeldbhawker3556]

A vehicle that size should have a much bigger screen, it looks lost

[@ManlyBurp]

We're all George.

[@nosirrahx]

I just traded my 2014 Sequoia Platinum for a 2021 Sequoia TRD Pro.

[@smattt]

And..how do you like it? How does the TRD Pro compare against the Platinum in ride quality?

[@nosirrahx]

@@smattt Platinum is smoother on the highway but the TRD Pro is a lot better gunning it on rough dirt roads.

Yes I love the sequoia Toyota with all my heart is the best SUV ever built better than Cadillac Chevy and Dodge junker ultra reliable
