    @chevyalcantara-butman8222 2 года назад +573

    The cheap plastic in the third row is actually the normal/correct material. Normally manufacturers use a "grain" on their plastics to give it a specific texture or pattern to make it feel nicer to the touch. This is sometimes done by applying an acid to the steel tooling used in the injection molding. What you're seeing here is the plastic WITHOUT that, so the texture reflects the freshly machined steel that they are pumping liquid plastic into during the injection molding process. A lot of prototype and mule vehicles use these "ungrained" parts since it's quick and cheaper to make those tools. Toyota either gave you a preproduction model or just did some cost cutting on an area they didn't think customers would touch often.
    I find it very odd on an interior piece. Even Engine covers are grained.

    • @sixten3
      @sixten3 2 года назад +34

      Yeah I can’t imagine this wasn’t a preproduction example. You wouldn’t see non-grained plastic in the cargo area even for an entry level CUV.

    • @anfitch8706
      @anfitch8706 2 года назад +9

      My guess is that the tools for the injection molding haven't been fully approved yet. Generally, the etching/texture isn't applied until the tool is approved, otherwise if you have to modify the tool then you have to repair the texture in that area.

      Edit: Please read that this is *MY OPINION* (and you are allowed to have yours, but it is unecessary to point out the obvious). Part of watching Doug's videos is also accepting that there is a chance that he misses/gets information correct, if you don't want that, click off and stop talking/responding and pointing out evident things like thats supposed to change someone's opinions, when in actuality, thats part of something a viewer accepts when watching a video.

    Two things - there is a usb-c port on the passenger side of the third row, it is underneath the arm rest. Also, if this is a preproduction vehicle, there is a good chance the training in the third row plastic isn’t finalized yet so it might actually be a placeholder for a nicer plastic

    I will never understand why “car like” continues to be a staple of auto journalist lingo when talking about trucks and SUVs. Car like is the last thing I want out of a truck or truck-based SUV, especially in terms of comfort. A “car like” ride is stiff, rebound is fast and not compliant. I love the way the 4Runner and 200 series Land Cruiser ride with their soft, body rolling, incredibly capable suspension. When you go over bumps and harsh road joints there’s a moment of “float” instead of instant suspension reaction and recovery. NVH is better, lateral G’s are felt less as body roll redirects that energy.
    Please stop comparing large SUV’s and modern pickup trucks to cars lol, its just silly. Anyway, I had to point that out. Great review of a fantastic TRUCK from Toyota. They absolutely nailed this.

    This is going to be a great 8 seater and people mover. The Land Cruiser had an awkward 3rd row setup while the Lexus LX ditches the 3rd row altogether in it's top trim. It's refreshing that you don't have to spend $100K+ for a SUV that's capable AND nice. A sliding/reclining 3rd row that's not cramped is a big deal and this one is easy to get to unlike some where it takes a while for that 2nd row to get out of the way. As for the engine, a hybrid V6 gives you some major fuel efficiency numbers, yet you also have those twin turbos for the big power applications. That leaves the V8 for folks who want to supercharge them and get maximum horsepower - Cadillac already does it and I'm guessing the Grand Wagoneer will get the same treatment.
    My only complaint are those 2nd row captains chairs, and it's the same complaint with the X7 - useless small armrests. No support for your arms and good luck getting them fixed if they break. Captains chairs should be about well made arm rests and I see very few out there done right.

    A gorgeous redesign! But That cargo area definetly is small for its class. But the tailgate glass opening is still a big perk. The MPG is attractive in its class. Save gas in the city commute, and have more hybrid torque during adverse weather or mild off roading.
    On pricing: the 2001 first generation SR5 started at around 35k MSRP, which, in 2022 dollars now is about 57k. Though the top trims of the 2022 far exceed the 2001 limited by a few thousand dollars.
    Of course, I say this as if I could ever anything above 50k HAHAHA...

    Nice but I'm sticking with my 2nd generation Sequoia. Two things that jumped out at me were that the rear window no longer rolls down 😕 and when the 3rd row folds down it no longer creates a flush surface which really cuts down on the cargo functionality. Plus I'm keeping my tried-and-true 5.7 L V-8 which I know will give me hundreds of thousands of miles of use. I'll wait and see how long a turbo V-6 holds up. Great review as always.

    Only thing holding me back from the Sequoia is the lack of an extended length version! We use all three rows of seats in our Expedition EL and the space behind the 3rd row is irreplaceable! Suburbans have had that extra space forever and the Jeep Wagoneer just got an L version!

    Taking a note from Jeep with adding the decals on the windshield.
    Maybe I’m wrong, but I think they do that so if the glass breaks, you’re more likely to take it to a Toyota dealer than a third party glass replacement company.
