Thank you Toyota for offering off road vehicles. Don’t ever become like Honda. That’s the reason I own a Toyota.
LSanti I'm with you on that my friend. Crossovers have there place, but rigs like the 4Runner and Sequoia are the last of a dying breed.
People going crazy over the bronco right now but remember ford abandoned the off road and body on frame suv market, the explorer is now a crossover. The raptor is the only true off road vehicle they have and that’s a full size pickup truck. They had nothing for suvs all these years. Now they entered with the new bronco because it’s a popular segment again. Chevy abandoned it too. Look what happened to the Chevy blazer, total soccer mom cross over now. They have the zr2 but that’s a pickup truck as well Look what happened to the Durango, it’s either a soccer mom crossover or spends its time racing on the street with the Srt. They have the power wagon but that’s a pickup truck as well. The trx is exciting but no sign of an off road suv. Toyota has stayed true to this segment whether it’s the 4runner, land cruiser, the fj cruiser before that was killed, and just the entire trd pro series has been around for awhile giving the off road community options. Gotta respect Toyota and Jeep for always staying true to off roading and never abandoning it even when it wasn’t as popular as it is today.
Well to be fair to Honda, they were more known for their street-racing. The first gen passport was just a rebadged Isuzu. But I completely agree with you that Toyota has always stayed true to themselves.
@@andyham6094 I understand people's concerns about a Tundra twin-turbo hybrid not being as capable as the V8, but fossil fuel will run out one day and Toyota is already taking steps for the long term.
The 4Runner just has its charm to it. It’s just got that old school durable feel and look to it. Imo the trd Pro 4runner is the best looking suv on the market hands down. I just love the design of it. I wouldn’t trade mine for the world. Never had a single problem with it.
Do you even take it offroading if you never had a single problem with it? I take ym 4runner on crazy offroading terrains on mountains and I get problems because I put so much pressure on the engine and suspension by doing crazy offroading which any vehicle naturally would get problems like that
Sure would be nice if Toyota offered the 4 Runner with an optional 5.7/V8.
It would kill sequoia sales
Even if it had the v8 from the lexus gx, it would be an improvement.
They don’t have the v8 4Runner anymore? I’m looking to buy now I think it’s 4gen and I’m staying clear of the v8 for gas purposes
cease sp Both kinda suck. The v8 is the engine that’s meant to be there IMO. I would look at a GX460 vs a 4Runner.
Well the 4 Runner had the 4.6 liter V8. You could supercharger it well over 300 hp.
The 4Runner is so cool. And that military green makes it even cooler.
Its fine like it is.
Finally, some love for the Sequoia. Love love my 2016, hauls my non slide 30' Jayco no problem. Hauls anything no problem. Roomy for all. Sounds great, great power, drive it till wheels fall off, it will last, not a lot of tech, believe it or not, a large segment of the population doesn't want it. Go Sequoia go!
Well said.
It's sad that people measure them according to tech.
My wife drives a 10 platinum and she absolutely loves it. It's at 168k and I'm trying to swap it for another with lower miles, but she isn't having any of it. Loves her pyrite Sequoia.
My parents have a Sequoia that’s a couple years old and I love it. Super comfortable, lots of room, and an excellent ride. Can’t wait to get one for myself.
I’m considering getting a sequoia. Need room for the family and I’m not impressed with the other full size SUVs. The biggest issue for me is MPG. What do you average?
@@cidlopez Hi, generally for a normal work week (I work 15 min from home, 60/40split highway, city) about 16.5 mph. All highway, about 19.5 mpg.
That Sequoia is such a beast! I've owned two. Spacious when it comes to the kiddos. 4runner is clearly more capable off -road. Good review!
Glad you did this review. I have really been looking at a 2008- 2010 sequoia platinum 4x4 since a land cruiser 200 series is out of my price range. They were still rated at almost 10,000lb towing capacity like the tundra before they switched to the j2807 standard. Most people don't know the tundra and sequioa share almost 95% of the parts with the land cruiser. Most notable changes are the independent rear suspension that gives that 3rd row more room then the Landcruiser and even the suburban. In fact wit the second and 3rd row folded it has the same luggage capacity as a suburban while being a foot shorter. Actually learned that from another episode you guys had on the sequioa
Still running my 2001 sequoia 129.000 miles and still going strong! Love these trucks!
I like how the word TOYOTA is on the grille not just the emblem..
Though the 4Runner has the older 4.0L engine and the 5 speed , both of those have been proving reliability for years.
Off-roading , you want reliability. Power is nice , but making sure you don’t break down is even better.
Additionally , 4Runners have a much better selection in the aftermarket upgrades
I mean, my Sequoia('07 limited with air ride and 4wd) has the 4.7L V8 and with 200k+ miles hasn't had a single mechanical issue. just because something's older doesnt mean itll be more reliable
@@maylon2501 Lets be honest ... at the end of the day its a Toyota. so 200k+ miles isn't even a sweat !
I've got the 4.7L v8 in my GX470 and 202k miles later, not a single issues either.
My 09 Seqouia has the same 5.7L that's been ridiculously reliable. So...
Maylon yeah honestly it’s proven both of these engines are some of the best ever made. This same engine in the tundra has gone over million miles more than once. Also the 4.0 4runner engine is also bulletproof. Haven’t had one single issue with mine and still drives good as new. Never had one single problem with anything.
The issue with the sequoia is that it's not bringing too much extra with the TRD Pro package. It looks cool, but that's a lot of money... I do like that V8! Pretty much indestructible!
How much more is it compared to the normal sequoia. Never really been a fan of their look
So is the 4.0
@@Offshore1977 I have a 05 4Runner with the 4.0 for my beater truck. It still runs like new even with 120k miles on it.
Mel Laknanurak but u ride a f150 not tundra? Ur profile pic. Why? 🤦♂️
Living in Colorado, we just purchased a 2021 4Runner Limited and spent 4 days driving in Rocky Mountain National Park on and off road in the snow and ice. It did well especially on curvy highway roads. Very impressive. Off road was mainly snow and ice as the steep and challenging off road trails were closed for the season. We will be back this summer and give proper off road test for our 2021 4Runner Limited and it’s factory enhanced full time 4WD hardware and software including the A-TRAC system.
Returning to our home in Colorado Springs, Colorado we achieved 24.5 mpg according to the onboard computer.
The advanced sports suspension and full time 4WD is ideal if one is mainly using on road use, as it shines on curves and highway speeds that also has awesome off road capabilities both of which are only available in the Limited trim.
For serious deep ruts, rock crawling and over landing, the TRD Pro is the way to go.
Love to see a Sequoia TRD vs land cruiser video
Believe it or not the LC pulls the sequoia in a tug war like it’s on ice. That thing is on another level
@@that1guy524 not really
That1 Guy You’re full of shit. Also, towing tests are about weight and traction, completely meaningless, like your comment.
300,000+ miles getting 14MPG, or 17MPG, combined is a whole lot cheaper that 150,000 miles and major engine work, or component failure, any day.
You would be lucky to get to 150K with most of the competition.
You’d be more lucky to get that with a Toyota now days, ratings just aren’t what they used to be.
Darren Wilkins THE MODERN TOYOTAS . . . Yeah. I agree. But, as Roman said, these engines/transmissions are the old tech. 10+years old, if I’m not mistaken. They’ve been upgraded to eliminate the weak links (a’la 5.7L camshaft issue, etc) and the drivetrain has proven to go the distance when properly maintained.
I have a 2004 Pathfinder with over 300k, still seems to be running strong(ish), but I am looking at the 4Runner now. I have always wanted one, but could never afford one. Also, I really do like that the rear window rolls down - wish mine did and so does my dog...
The V6 in the 4Runner is bomb proof... it's been around forever and is one of the most reliable gas powered engines on the market. It will do 300K easily. So your argument doesn't work in this particular case... but I get your point with someone else's powerplant.
Love my Sequoia, took it off roading a few times even. It's more for long trips and able to get thru most conditions.
The interior space is amazing compared to the competition. Of course I'd rather have a land cruiser but I have a Wrangler for off-roading.
We have the 4runner and we tow with it a lot. We tow close to max 3 utility quads and 2 dirt bikes on an 8x16 and I have to say that I'm truly impressed with how it tows, I lock it in 4th gear and 70 MPH and 2800 RPM. I'm all about the 4runner. Great review...👍🏼👍🏼
I have a 2010 5.7 Sequoia and a 2011 4Runner. Both basically unchanged since. We absolutely love both. Sequoia tows our 31' Airstream, and runner takes us out onto the beach. If we take a trip with a large group, that all fix comfortable. Love them both.
I bought a 2020 4Runner TRD Pro, which made my brother immediately want one so I sold him mine and let him take over the payments and purchased a 4Runner TRD Off Road.. I realized i'm modifying for overlanding so wasted money on part i'm only going to tear out... Immediately upon delivery I sent her in to have everything installed, CBI off road bumper (front and rear) with a Smittybilt winch.. 3 inch lift on ICON stage 7 suspension with overland springs in the rear to help with weight.. For tires im going with a set of 285, 75, 17 Toyo M/Ts.. Not my first choice tire but they were free lol.. And i just bought an Alu-Cab gen 3 Expedition flip tent (sets up in seconds lol)... I can do a dual battery set up myself and purchase my fridge, cooking and storage needs next week.. I'm excited lol
I have a first gen 02 Sequoia. That 4.7 v8 is bullet proof. Plus it's very capable offroad. Approach angle ground clearance departure is better than most new dedicated factory offroader have. Its nimble plus great on the hwy and in parking lots. Roman please do episode on the first gen Sequoia
Imagine calling the 4Runner small
...much smaller, much compact !! WOW
I mean 190 inches is on the smaller side of the midsize SUV segment. Pilot is 196. Even the Camry is two inches longer than the 4Runner
I sat in one and felt very confined
That's interesting, I'm 6' tall and get plenty of leg room in my 4runner SR5 second row. I'm also only 180 lbs. Not sure if it's because my seats move back and I have a third row?
@@strikervix9 i think my problem is/was I got into the sequoia first. I'm 6'1 220. In the sequoia I had sooooo much room. Then getting into the 4runner I just felt smooshed. Even the Highlander to me had way more room in my opinion
because i'm still in my 20's, have a dog and not a partner with kids i still drive a 4runner but i understand the purpose of the sequoia, most likely what i'll have to "upgrade" myself to in the not so distant future of 30's. thanks for the review!
Sequoia TRD Pro looks better with Army Green than other TRD Pro models IMO.
You ain't lying
GX 460 has the 4.6 ltr. and AWD
Never liked the look of the Sequoia.....until now! Awesome in army green.
Army green looks good on all the models. But the Tacoma and 4runner look best to me.
Don’t get me wrong, I love and own a Toyota (92 Delux with the 4 banger. Truly bulletproof.) and a 2016 Lexus GX 460 (Fancy Toyota 😁) but Toyota needs to get off their laurels and update their truck and SUV line up. The engines need to be made more efficient and they need more gears in their transmissions. They should also add some diesels to the lineup or their market share will continue to slip.
Max A/C they certainly seem to be taking their time. I really don’t care if they update their body styles but the drive trains are about a decade out of date.
Have you seen the Tacoma predator
Second Amendment I agree. Love the 4Runner styling and capabilities but fuel efficiency in 2020 needs to be much better. The idea that trucks can’t be fuel efficient needs to change
Second Amendment Yes! Plus their interiors are a generation behind.
Naaaah it makes my 2012 look like a new car :D
Loving these Toyota reviews. I have had all these you’ve been doing recently and it’s funny that as I age I care less and less about can it jump stumps and rock crawl and more about quiet and room for my stuff. Provided I can still drive around the pastures at the ranch. I prefer my tundra and sequoia to my 4Runner or the Tacoma. I almost think the smaller ones are for younger folks.
I think it is great that they have a range of durable trucks. In fact, I would like to see something smaller as well like the last FJ with proper visibility.
As always, thanks for all the reviews you guys do! Always informational and never a waste of time..
Love the look of the 4 Runner, it looks like a lifted EVO-X. It looks like the Evo ate a baby land cruiser, lol
That army green is gorgeous, definitely making thinking about trading in my voodoo blue tundra..
I was beginning to wonder when you guys would review the the sequoia. From the Toyota lineup, it’s always the Tacoma, 4Runner, or Land Cruiser. Thank you. 👍🏼
There you go again, listing HP without listing Torque while you are talking about offroading. How often does all that Horsepower come into play when you are on an offroad course such as you are with these two?
HP is a marketing ploy that everyone has bought into. I'm sure you read the comments on TFL videos. Torque curves are an afterthought to people who complain about "dated interiors" in a 4WD vehicle.
Well, 401 ft pounds of torque if the engine is tuned the same as the tundra, which I believe it is.
A commercial in the middle of the video? Look, I get it, you guys need ads to make these videos, and having one at the beginning I can live with. But cutting them in half is Facebook level annoying. I'll wait to watch this on PC where I can block both of them.
Love the review, but I have to say if I was in the market for a full size mega off-road SUV I’d end up looking at the Land Cruiser with better tech, slightly better MPG (2 more gears), and the true off road cred. Have to imagine someone shopping in the $65k range might be able to afford a new or used Land Cruiser.
I was in the same boat not too long ago for the wife. With two kids in child seats and in-laws in the car regularly, she fell in love with the Sequoia immediately. It's much larger inside.
I'm sticking with my land cruiser though.
Right?! Also the LC tugs that sequoia like its on ice when you look at videos of them having a tug-of-war and it’s faster 😎
The Landcruiser starts at $85,000. You could buy 2 4Runners for that price. 😳 And ain't nobody taking their $85k vehicle off-road where it could get damaged, broken, or even scratched...
Zuke you couldn’t get 2 TRD Pro’s for that price...but I understand your point. That’s why I prefaced with “full size” and if someone was shopping in the $65k range for off-road full sizes the Raptor is in the mix. That is what I would personally go for, but it only seats 5. So while I agree with you, the Land Cruiser is more capable and a better value in the Toyota lineup.
The entire time he was stuck in the 4Runner I was saying “Just use the Crawl Control!”
Sure enough, once he did he got out. Wow, now was that so hard?
ChrisCarGuy - He has to show it was really, seriously stuck, so the crawl control save would be suitable impressive. And it was.
InsomniacRyan ahhh I got you. That makes sense
Good video! Cant wait to get my sequoia built up mildly, like the explorer I'm sure it's going to suprise everyone.
Good to see something about The Sequoia. Great vehicle in it’s own right. Just wish it had more engine options besides the gas guzzling 5.7 for those who don’t need that much power, but room and seating. I’d love to see a Tahoe/Sequoia/Expedition off road, towing, cargo capacity, and mpg test.
They used to offer the 4.6 as well but I suppose they sell in such small numbers that they trimmed the options.
I just bought a brand new Sequioa TRD Sport. Toyota dealer matched the new car price of Carmax.! I paid 50k out the door. After a week and a half, I’m amazed at how great this vehicle is. Definitely recommend if you like power and lots of comfort for you and your family. The durability and longevity of Toyota, are why you should get one. End of year deals are great.
4runners rear seats also recline
I didn’t know the 4Runner rear seats reclined - thank you.
say what you want about these old dinosaurs ... they still kick ass and look good
Exactly. They will also last twice as long as any competitor.
Loved the video.... but calling a 4runner "baby"....c'mon!!
Excellent video Roman... Both trucks are nice..I really love that solid dark Green paint.Thanks Roman.
The two trucks ive been debating over are these two.
I like the look of the TRD Pro on the 4Runner, however I live in Montreal. No real need for a a pure off road truck.
I want AWD plus 7 seater but with the TRD look which the 4Runner doesnt have.
Looks like the Sequoia may be my choice.
Love this channel.
Go for a 4runner limited. Permanent 4wd and 7 seats.
@@keon5779 I know, but its the old school Toyota grill I liked. The limited has chrome.
Ive been on all these review channels since Dec trying to find whats right for me.
I tested the 2019 Nighshade 4Runner. I liked it.
Switching from my good old unreliable Jeep Grsnd Cherokee '07 lol.
That green is stunning.
Have had 6 Tacoma’s , 2 4runners , 1 land cruiser FJ 40, 3 tundras and 1sequoia . If I had to pick one for 4 wheeling over landing and just the most versatility no question it would be the Sequoia. Ya it’s big but not any bigger then the Tundra , 5.7 381hp ,independent rear suspension great ride both on and off road carrying capacity Huge , gas mileage sucks 14 to 15 MPG tow s boats , 28 ft travel trailer like there not even there . You can buy them all day long for under 50K and put a 4” lift on . My experience with the 4Runner is when you have it loaded for over landing it’s gas mileage goes to 15 to 16 MPG . Does not tow 3,500lbs well , not enough power . Before I got another 4Runner my second choice would be a tundra with a camper shell very capable . For just 4 wheeling the 4Runner is the ticket but in my opinion lacks in the rest of the categories . The nice thing about my experience with Toyota’s is you can run them for 250,000 miles easy as long as you take care of them .
Only, only has 5 gears? 5 gears is plenty, lol. I don't quite understand your guys fascination with more gears. As long as it has an overdrive gear for driving on the freeway, that's all I want.
Because having 18 gears will help you sleep better at night.
wish you could choose any trim with no sun roof, less head room and more weight on the roof.
I want an older Sequoia to have as my "emergency car" But I'll drive it daily LOL
Lol 😅
4Runner because I would Choose the Land Cruiser over the Sequoia.
I thought this was going to be a comparison of how each does off road. It’s mostly just a comparison of their towing capacity, features, and tech.
4Runner all the way! 👍
I would say Tackle vs Linebacker would be a more apt comparison as neither is a Sumo.
Own a 2021 tacoma trd and a 2004 sequoia. It has 200,000 miles and I believe it will go another 200,000. All in all both are fantastic vehicles
The thing is majority people never take it offroading which I never understood the first thing I did when I got my 4runner was take it offroading and mainly only time I drive is to the mountains on crazy terrains it's so much fun an main reason why I even got it but many people don't even take it offroading it's like a waste their better off with a standard city vehicle.
Out now with the inevitable $5,000 dealer mark up.. I love my 4R limited. Wouldn't change it for anything else, though I'll admit I do like the front end of the TRD pro (2019 version) better than the Limited; but I like my creature comforts more.
I wish they would bake all of the 4RUNNER offroading goodness into the Sequoia.
I live in Puerto Rico and a 4x4 is a must roads are thin and curvyso the 4runner seems to be optimal for my situation
Great video. For me, I want the 4 Runner. But I must say, i truly miss the V8 the 4 Runner once had. Really wish they would go back to a V8 offering in the 4 Runner. Wishful thinking I know.
The size doesn't matter, as long as you know how to use it
They’re both great looking. Like that green
The sequoia hasn’t had much of a facelift since 2008. The only things that have changed visually is made LED headlights and changed the interior. The outside needs to be modernized, especially where SUVs have been taking over the market.
Is there a possibility you can put a Sequoia engine in a 4runner body?
Yes but you have to cut a little
I wish the Sequoia came with a V6 diesel option...
It obviously didn't actually lock the rear differential until you engaged that crawl control thing which is lame. If you push the locker button, it should lock. could have easily gotten out of that spot without crawl control if it actually locked.
We just got the 2019 sequoia trd sport and it’s really nice🤟🏽 can you please compare the trd pro and the trd sport?
I have a 4Runner and want a Sequoia, but I know if I had the Sequoia, I would want the 4Runner. Guess I will have to live with better gas milage and off roading, Darn. Runner are also 100% made in Japan, so are more reliable. THANKS
My local Toyota Dealer has brand new 19’ Sequoia Pro that was special ordered but the customer died that they we’re trying to basically give away this weekend just to get it off the lot because of the new 2020s - $41,500. I almost came home with a new Toyota, luckily my more responsible friend got me out of there. I don’t need new a new truck.
Not that most folks will do heavy, perhaps much/any off-roading with it, but the Sequioa TRD Pro has the higher ground clearance.
Thank you! I like them both but wish that Toyota placed spare tire on back and used the space for a bigger gas tank。
The 5 speed transmission in the 4R is fine. The 4R's big problem is the terrible powerband of the 4.0. It's completely devoid of low end torque; the power comes on much too high in the rpm range to be of much use. I have one, and the more I drive it, the less I like this motor. The 4.0 really lets the 4R down. Unfortunately, the alternative (the 3.5) is even worse. I'd love to see a turbo 4 with good low end (like an Ecoboost or the JL) in the 6th gen.
I know how you feel. I think a v6 hybrid would be great to have for some extra power
I've had the Sequoia as a rental and the Nissan Armada, that would be an interesting matchup to try. The Armada got far better fuel economy and a smaller turning radius as well as seeming to have better acceleration.
Id give anything to afford the trd 4 runner wow man I wish I could afford one of those trucks its my dream truck
When is 4runner getting a new body style? I see the interior got a much needed refresh. Any news about next gen sequoia or 4runner?
They will be coming in the early 2020s
Rumor is next year the next generation, 6th gen, 4Runner will arrive. It will likely have an 8 speed transmission paired with the Tacoma’s 3.5l V6, which will improve fuel economy. The appearance will resemble the new RAV4 and Tacoma. I’m not expecting too much change other than that.
I just hope they don’t screw up the exterior and keep it aggressive looking. Though a better looking grill would be nice
Looks like the 2020 Trd pro center hvac is the limited and the 2020 Trd off road is the standard hvac with the new head unit.
Greetings from Patagonia great channel
Thanks for watching and the kind words!
the black edition 4runner has ALL the bells and whistles
You mean the Nightshade.
I usually like these videos but the title to this video is inaccurate. Much of the video he talks about comfort and towing ability. Which have nothing to do with off-roading. And then you don’t even take them on the same trail. Wtf?! Change the title
Read the comments on here. People talking about dated interiors, transmissions having less than 8 gears, what the wife wants, etc. A good portion of the audience has not a clue about off roading. Therefore, the videos reflect the viewership.
He didn’t mention that the Sequoia comes with a 4.30 rear end!
I bet they call in armed guards to keep Roman from going offroad during a supercar review.
Not comparing the Sequoia and the 4Runner on the same trail (to no fault of your own) kinda beats the point of the side by side comparison.
Did he really just refer to the 4Runner as the "Baby TRD Pro"?
Are you serious?? The 4Runner is the pioneer of the TRD brand
Hello, i'm a huge fan of your show. I would like to see a comparation of your "brand new" LR3 vs the VW Touareg in moab for instance :D, or a rubicon vs the LR3 in the same spot or both LR3 vs Touareg vs Rubicon, because if you try to find some of this comparisons in the net you don't find any and It was just a way to brighten the day of the fans. Thank you
I would like to see the Sequoia TRD Pro vs the Expedition FX4 on Rocky Top or Cliffhanger 2.0
Wish we could get 4 runner over here in UK , apart from the appalling mpg
I wish we could get the very basic Land Cruiser Commercial over here with a manual. Toyota makes a very durable 2.7 petrol engine that would be just fine for the 3 door.
I love y’alls channel it’s helped me learned so much from y’all and hours of entertainment! But I can’t afford the most luxurious truck. I’d greatly appreciate it if could yall could do a best base model trucks? If so I’d greatly appreciate it!
You are most welcome. Thanks for the kind words!
It’s 2019 so it’s not like Toyota *can’t* offer a capable off-road drivetrain that’s modern AND economical AND reliable AND powerful. They just *won’t*.
You can't stuff all 3 of those things in the same bag, sorry. You can't even fit "powerful" and "economical" in the same bag when it comes to a capable off roader.
Ok, first i had an 02 4runner n now i have an 2010 sequoia.i took both to Mexico n down to Costa Rica. Yes i drove them both. Never hd engine or transmission problem. Toyota s Toyota no matter the sizes.
I like the rav4 adventure better than the 4Runner or sequoia or tundra or Tacoma, the rav4 adventure is the mini overlander and the mini rock climber
These trucks are beast. My 2006 1st gen sequoia has 315k miles on it. Just broke in.
Something you keep on getting wrong is that all automatic 4x4 toyotas have a trac even if you don't have a button for it, it's just on as soon as you put it in 4lo. So even a base model sr tacoma has it, the sequoia, the tundra,
The main differences is that on some you can choose to turn it on or off.
In my personal opinion Atrack is all you need for most off roading if you know how tonuse it to your advantage. It's not the same as having lockers but it's pretty damn close. Obviously for more technical rock crawling the lockers are better.
You guys should make a video on the base tacoma sr with only a v6 and 4x4 as an option and I can guarantee you it can go most places the off road can. Better yet a sr v6 4x4 is about 6k cheaper. For that money you can get good tires and probably beat the off road.
Forgot to mention the Sequoia has independent suspension all around, and the 4runner has a rear live axle.
Land cruiser is the way to go for someone wanting a full size 4x4.
Was I not supposed to see this video yet? Either way, 4 runner
Jonathan Losito less clearance though and it’s a boat compared to the 4Runner. If you want something with a lot of aftermarket components and fine suspension tuning, the 4Runner is the go to. Sequoia may have potential off-road but at the end of the day it is a family grocery getter.
Roman on TRD Pro Sequoia in the No,Your Wrong video: "The TRD Pro Sequoia is a joke"
Toyota: "We'll put you in one and put you on a special course if you make it look good"
Roman: "Sequoia is surprisingly good off-road and would be just as capable as 4R if you took the sidesteps off. I'd choose it for a round the world expedition"
Seq borrows allot of cues from the mighty Land Cruiser. Just get a Land Cruiser it's undisputed king.
Just get a Sequoia, same engine, 4hi/4lo, center lockers, tows more. Half the price of Land Cruiser. Built just as tough.
Shawn Dickmann fair but land cruiser is a legend. Also the king of SUV’s and probably the most popular vehicle here in Kenya. It’s toured Africa, withstood the craziest of conditions and does it all in absolute luxury
Overpriced junk!!*Toyota sucks!!!
@@robertquattrini2486 Calm down, Grandpa. Chevy fell behind and Toyota took their spot.
Get one of each! I have two 4Runners and a Sequoia. :)
Man, too bad Toyota doesn’t offer the Army of 5 Rock Stackers package on the 4Runner like Jeep does with the Gladiator. Sure would come in handy when Roman got stuck.
Unlike most of your videos, I found this video very hard to follow. Im going to need to watch a couple more times to keep up with your jumping back and forth
Surprised he didn't talk about cargo space, for me the sequoia is the way to go because you can fold down the seats and comfortably sleep in the back, it makes camping on a whim a no brained.
Imagine buckling your seatbelt offroad 😂
Tory Terzian I have been hospitalized for 2 months because of an off-road crash.
Weird that you'd do a comparison of 2 vehicles but run them on different tracks?
If they had updated the interior and exterior of the sequoia I would definitely go for that one
These 2 must be the oldest vehicles in Toyotas line up. It's been what 8 years, since they were redone?
in three months itll be 10 years
Your point?
And they continue to sell and make money... the R&D costs have been paid for years ago, everything is gravy now. They are in no hurry to redo this vehicles...
In Australia, Toyota still sells the LC70, which is close to 40 years old.
Yeah and that is why they are still desirable. Proven. Ppl want reliability not trips to Ford and Chevy Garages.
