[@bigslacker666]

The 'pro' gets stuck in mild offroad conditions and obstacles. Needs more lift, more armor and more tire. This is why anyone who wants to do more than fireroads in the current crop of Toyota 'offroad' vehicles should spec the TRD offroad package and do proper mods themselves.

[@IAMLEGIT2323]

Exactly what I did with my 2022 Tacoma. Trd OR 4x4 premium, instantly added a beefier suspension lift (approximately 2.5” lift and level), 33 inch falken at3w, and plan on adding a lowpro bumper and wench.

[@lawdog516]

What happens when a vehicle gets damaged while testing? Do you have to make the repair or does Toyota eat the damage? Thanks Steve

[@ejesoriginal]

I think this is one of those nuance things when it comes to the TRD PRO badge. Let's not forget that that badging really springs forth more from Toyota's Baja racing division than from crawling through ruts, mud and rocks. This is why you have to really understand their trims and do your research, lest you are subject to the "buyers remorse". But, you are right, TK, Toyota likes to blur that line with off-roading to appeal to more people through marketing and also by offering more capability in those areas with other models. The Sequoia has always been a "people mover" and adding some of the PRO gadgets just puts it into more of a "ruggedized" version maybe better suited to taking people to the cabin in bad weather over the weekend or some light overlanding. It is sort of like adding a rubber case to your iPhone...

[@MrM3drvr]

I must say this kind of contrasts with you previous video comparing it with the Armada. You guys said you would feel comfortable taking this off road, and I had my doubts about that. I'm pretty sure you feel differently after filming this about taking this off road. I would classify this and the Armada as rather similar in the off roading situation despite the package differences. Only difference is tires really, and you can easily swap that out on the Armada for the price difference.

[@mikekuczynski1552]

I think one thing you have to keep in mind is that it is a large SUV . I have a 2019 and live in Montana and four wheel all the time , and like any time your four wheeling the line you take and the speed you take it at makes all the difference . Thanks for sharing

[@richardoaks3597]

I agree with you Stephen. You can have all the gimmick off road features but if you don’t have decent clearance, approach and departure angles then it’s worthless. I like the Sequoia and plan on getting one but it needs a bigger lift from factory and or upgraded bumpers or high clearance bumpers.

[@comradecaptain5710]

[@RidersInBlack]

Well, folks, let's look at this at face value. This TRD Sequoia is a step above The Honda Pilot trail and Subaru. It's sandwiched in between those vehicles and a true 4x4 off-road We can't be too hard on it. Considering for nearly $100K Canadian, it will be 100% fine for the people who will be buying it. Which are suburban families who tow the odd boat or jet ski to their cottage

[@dishwasherchao8646]

Some people just like to use front bumper as an extra off-road tire😂. Dude please do off-roading according to your vehicle’s shape and the tires you put on. I think sequoia’s lock is sufficient enough. But if you chose a terrain that doesn’t work for a car’s ground clearance, nothing is going to perform.

@@weirdshibainu 100% agree. My Sequia is a Limited and it has everything we need and is so incredibly durable. I bought it brand new for $55,100 out the door at 1.9% interest over 5 years. My wife and I just finished paying it off last year and I cannot imagine how anyone can afford that new one at $85,000 and the interest rates that exist today. We have four kids and they were all young and now much older and bigger so the Sequia is a great vehicle for us. Fun story we had it in for the 100,000 mile service last year and I took the kids to pick it up because I wanted them to get in and tell me if they liked the new one. They all jumped in and the first thing they all agreed on was it is smaller than the previous generation. My son who is 17 and 6 foot 2 was hitting his head on the roof on the new one while he has several inches of clearance in our Sequia. Unless you are short and a millionaire I would just buy a used previous gen if you need a Sequia.

I want to like the new Sequoia but I'm a bit skeptical of some of the reviews from several owners such as the disappointment in the suv's interior quality for the price and lack of space in the trunk and 3rd row area as well as the unrefined hybrid powertrain and ride quality. I was a big fan of the prior generation Land Cruiser 200 with the 5.7 V8s when they were in production and everything about them was superb quality. I really like the Sequoia's new body style redesign but I really hope for the next couple years they can work out the flaws of this vehicle. I feel like it wasn't worth the switch for Toyota to go to this all new hybrid iForce Max system because it barely gets better MPG than the 5.7 or even the non hybrid twin turbo 6.

Appreciate ur honest review. 😊 Thanks.

[@victoryengineer]

Evidentially it's not obvious to everyone that if you want to go through stuff like that (very common where I live) the Sequoia is going to need a small lift and 35's. For those saying it's marketed for that stuff so it should be able to do it, wow. If you can't figure out in about 3 seconds what kind of wheeling it can do you're way out of your element and should just stick to mall crawler patrols. It doesn't take much to drastically improve the Sequoia's off road abilities for the 2% or so that wheel it. There's no shortage of new Sequoia build and videos of them traversing some serious terrain. Jepp capable.....nope, Bronco capable....nope, but they can damn sure do a hell of a lot more without much effort for those that really do intend to use them that way.
