This again?
This happened in 08 as well. I really hope Geo Metro prices don't correlate to economic
If you’ve got 73k Capstone is the trim for you.Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 9:39 am So, who can give me the skinny on the new Sequoia?

A lot like the Explorer/Expedition, but still a handsome vehicle nonetheless
Damn, sounds like it’s a wash as far as upgrades/improvements. Not sure it’s worth the cost, but haven’t dug into it yet to compare to others in that size categorymax225 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:04 amIf you’ve got 73k Capstone is the trim for you.Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 9:39 am So, who can give me the skinny on the new Sequoia?

30-40% more than the last gen across comparable trims
Mpg going from 13 to 17-20
Way nicer interiors
Way better looking
No more V8 but now TT v6 or hybrid ttv6
Heavier

The improvements sound great and the new TT v6 is very intriguing, but that much a price hike makes it all a wash to me. It was already prohibitively expensive for what it was to begin with, and it’s now even more so it seems. I’ll try to dive into it though and really compare in the coming weeks, maybe it’ll change my mind seeing exactly what’s changedmax225 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:12 amWhat do you mean by wash ?Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:10 am

This thing is arguably better than the last gen in every single way but cost and simplicity
Yea it’s tremendously more expensive. High end sequoia is now essentially the new land cruiser. I’d argue it’s actually better and cheaper than a land cruiser.Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:31 amThe improvements sound great and the new TT v6 is very intriguing, but that much a price hike makes it all a wash to me.

Per your banning comment... no one is banning you, you received zero repercussions. Do you want to pay for the forum? I figured no, so stop trying to talk COVID in every thread. It's getting fucking old. Some of us are trying to move on with life and are here to talk about things we actually enjoy.
The TRD BRO trim is pretty epic. I have always shied away from Ford's Ecoboost stuff because Ford. Also they managed to increase complexity and still get shittier mileage than GM. Toyota Turbo though?Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 11:02 amThat new powertrain has my brother in law looking at trading his F150 in on a new Tundra in 2 years cause he likes what he’s read about it but wants to see some real world use numbers on it and stuff before jumping into it.fledonfoot wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:43 am Sequoia's all have the hybrid powertrain with 437HP and 583TQ
Yea I am Toyotas of the future will be as reliable as Toyotas of the past. I think we will see a major shift in reliability due to added complexity.Desertbreh wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 11:52 amThe TRD BRO trim is pretty epic.

Toyota didn't design the Tundra hybrid to be as fuel efficient as possible. They did it mostly to help with towing. It's looking like the F150 powerboost will be the more efficient truck, and the Tundra Hybrid is like 500-600lbs heavier.Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 11:02 amThat new powertrain has my brother in law looking at trading his F150 in on a new Tundra in 2 years cause he likes what he’s read about it but wants to see some real world use numbers on it and stuff before jumping into it.fledonfoot wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:43 am Sequoia's all have the hybrid powertrain with 437HP and 583TQ
Early trucks seems to be having some waste gate issues. Not sure how wide spread it is but we'll see as more get delivered and driven. It's a cab-off jobDesertbreh wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 11:52 amThe TRD BRO trim is pretty epic. I have always shied away from Ford's Ecoboost stuff because Ford.

I hope he does his research and/or asks me, but he’s pretty stubborn when it comes to his vehicles purchases and doesn’t ask for opinions from me. I’d take an F150 over the Tundra, but that’s more from a looks standpoint than diving deep into the specs and stuff. That new Tundra front end just kills my interest in it.CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 12:57 pmToyota didn't design the Tundra hybrid to be as fuel efficient as possible.

The front end looks slightly more palatable IRL, but it's still not great. Sequoia is a bit better.Devilchrono wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 1:40 pmI hope he does his research and/or asks me, but he’s pretty stubborn when it comes to his vehicles purchases and doesn’t ask for opinions from me.
