    Anyone have a Toyota Sequoia?

    Cause I need to sell my truck and I was thinking it would be a good ride.

    When not hauling clients I will be hauling surfboards, skis, etc.

    How do they tow and what kind of gas mpg do they pull down?

    And any problems etc. would be appreciated.

    If you look at the website where you pulled that pic from, you will find the answers to your questions, grasshopper

    On a Toyota-related note, check out the first non-gay-looking hybrid:

    Yeah but I don't want factory specs p. I want the fuckin truth.

    Dodge said my Dakota would get 15mpg in towm and 19 on the high way it's more like 11/15.

    Got about 30 of 'em parked outside. Gimme a few mins, I'll pull up the pertinent info. Regarding the ride - Very Land-Cruiserish. Rides like the oversize sedan it is.

    Base price, towing & gas info forthcoming..

    Ok - One I've got in inventory - the price numbers may vary a BIT, but here's the deal:

    Model # 7920 - SR5 4WD
    MSRP: $39,960
    Cost: $34,997 (Our cost - you WILL have to pay a profit.)

    Towing: 6200lbs. Includes a 150amp alternator and a 7-pin wiring harness standard.

    Mileage: 14/17 listed - And the techs tell me 15 is about average.

    Toyota seems to be on the ball. The factory specs for the Taco is accurate (17/19)

    toyota is absolutely schooling everyone in the hybrid arena. they're releasing a lexus rx hybrid, and they've sold out before they've finished producing them.

    gmc/chevy are coming out with hybrids for the tahoe and some of their other biggies.

    How do they tow
    the car goes in front.
    fine

    Hey EPS got any used ones? Looking for a 4x4, if you got any at a good price maybe we can talk. No gold or green.

    Didn't look @ used...Those #'s were off a brand spanky new one. (Still has the shipping tape on it!)

    Not sure where you're at, but I can certainly give you some ballpark trade-in / off-lease numbers for you to work with. At least I can give you some info & a bit of bargaining power.

    Remember that you're kinda at the mercy of the Dealer when you're looking at used...

    I'll leaving for the day, but I'll PM you tomorrow with the info.

    Gear swap?

    Seriously, I'd like to see those astronomers faces when someone turned the car on in that picture - they'd be like - "hey, where'd the sky go????"

    My friend who has one of those Sequoias loves it , but says the gas mileage sucks....
