Just picked one up today for $3200! What a steal. when people find out about them the prices will go up. Best kept secret right now.
Definitely not forgotten 😆 my neighbor has 3 of them
That’s a lot 😂
Why three
Why not
I picked my black 2005 Sequoia Limited with Navigation, Rear entertainment etc from a local Auction that was donated through Goodwill with 225,000 miles with a new Toyota frame replacement and 98 pages of Dealership records for $2,500!
Some cool tricks is you can also put the key in the drivers door and turn to unlock and hold it and it'll open the front windows and sunroof to cool it down on hot days.
Also you to start the vehicle you just turn the key and let go it'll start on it's own, basically you don't have to wait for it to start and let go
Absolutely LOVE my Gen1 Sequoia, nice find !
Mine is an 04 Limited that had just over 200k at purchase. It’s now just short of 300k and has needed nothing but routine maintenance and a few upgrades. I did add EBC slotted/drilled/coated rotors and Green Stuff pads for increased braking capability, new Michelin’s all the way around, a 12” sub, new speakers, and a 600w amp to help the new Apple CarPlay stereo and backup camera. I affectionately call it my “Landcrab” and it’s AWESOME at everything except passing up gas stations lol 😂
Thanks! That is awesome to hear! Sounds like a beast! Can’t wait to mod mine!
I had similar brake light issues as you did, but mine were cleared up by replacing all the brakes, MC, and calipers. After seeing your latest vid I’ll take another peek at my brake booster, but my light hasn’t been back…
@@MartyMotoring is the limited the same size as the sr5? which one is better?
@@charlesben9104 Yes they are all the same dimensions/size. The limited just has standard options like heated leather seats and a few other things like a spoiler. I’ve seen a lot of SR5s specd the same though
Under 4000 these things are a steal. I bought with 270k at $4500. There was and still is no rust, i have 320k on mine now and after a little maintenence its running like its brand new
Awesome. I picked up an 02 limited for 3500. Rust free frame. Only 183k. Needs some minor maintenance though. What have you had to do to yours?
@jakesmith-ho4bl new suspension but to be fair it has 330k and my rear diff went.
My new problem is rack and pinion mechanic wants 2k to fix it.
@louzer4609 ouch. I've priced racks myself and am like going to use on from rock auto when the time comes.. Oem is close to 900. I think the price you got is unfair. The first thing I will have to do is UCA,LCA,Tie rods , and all ball joints. Luckily my brother is a huge help.
My dad has a 02 Sequoia SR5 he has had it since 08 it has 221k miles its an amazing car very comfortable and reliable nice for road trips and a lot of space and compartments highly recommend !
I drive a 2006 Limited here in northern Canada and I have never plugged it in or anything and we get -45 weather 9 months of the year. It starts right up and never quits.
I just bought one for $800 needed some light work. Coworker didn’t want to mess with it anymore so I bought it from her. Needs tires, maybe brakes, has a couple minor leaks, needs timing belt and valve covers gaskets. I put in 8 new OEM plugs to fix a random cylinder misfire and it runs good! It’s a 02 SR5 4WD with 307k. Also absolutely not a spot of rust!
Man what a steal. 05 limited is definitely the one to get. Most HP and features
It was super clean too I just got it back yesterday. It drives amazing I'll try to upload a video. Still need to get the front fiberglass fenders painted.
Is the 06 bad? I just picked one up, 140k miles. 5k
@@leoiturrey1800 I think it, no 6. They went down in horsepower a little, but it's not bad. No
Is 01 ok
Those 4.7L's can go 1 million miles!!! 👍
It’s only cheap because of the mileage but those things with even 200k miles aren’t too cheap.
Just picked up an 02 sr5 with 167k miles for $3000. It needs some interior and exterior trim help and the clearcoat is toast (its AZ so faded but no rust)
I ❤ my one owner well maintained 04 Toyota Sequoia Limited bought it used back in 2014 with 292576 miles along with its original Toyota dealership maintenance records dated since purchased. Paid $4000 very clean inside and out no major rust, still drives like new and now with 359899 miles and haven’t had major repairs just regular maintenance! Grateful and plan on driving it to 500K or more. I highly recommend it save $$$. Or just buy NEW @ $85K 😊
I own a 05 sr5 own for 6 years now bought with 140k just hit 180k I’ve done only the basic maintenance and also I timing belt water pump and it didn’t even need it but overall love the truck and the price you can pick these up for it’s really the best bang for your money
Sold my 2005 tundra last year for 14.5k with 120k miles on the clock.
Nice, low miles and good price
I been hunting for a overlander and the 1st gen is on my shortlist. That sounds like a great deal with the work it had. I really want a LC100/LX470 but the extra space in the Sequoia (and price range) really makes it stand out.
And the money you save you can put into your overlanding upgrades
@@rvroutdoors2131 After months of hunting I eventually came upon a nice 2005 LX470. The Sequoias are great but in my area I found that nice ones were prices in a range that made the LX make more sense and the well taken care of Sequoias did not stay on the market for long. I don't regret the extra money I dropped on the LX but whenever I see a Sequoia I look.
I've only made some quality-of-life improvements with my '02; LED dome, map, and puddle lights and back-up camera/NAV unit. Those rear wheel wells are real water traps! Side of the driver's seat rubs the seat control plastic and cuts it. My 350K mile rig looks and runs better than cars a quarter it's age!
Very nice find. I have a 2010 RAV4 v6 and will be giving it to my daughter in another year or so when she can drive. I would love a 4Runner or Land Cruiser, but they are so expensive used. I feel like this slips under the radar a little. I’ll definitely look for one at that time. Hopefully can find one without rust. I’m in PA too.
I bought a 05 limited Just like that. But it's ash Gray Super clean.
I spent $6700 On it. I've had it for 4years And I just put it in the shop a month ago getting it back today. I just spent 43,000 On it for a Beast of a overland build. Three and a half inch lift thirty five inch tires Total chaos Long travel suspension high clearance fiberglass flared fenders 4,88 gears front and rear Eaton lockers Is king 2.5 Tunable shocks. Is front and rear high clearance middle bumpers with warn Wench KC lights. The tires are nitto ridge grapplers On method bead lock technology wheels. There's too much to list I should be getting it back today if not tomorrow. I wanted to 4 runner V8 also. But this is way better. The old suspension was crap Toyota put the cheapest suspension on the 1st gen Sequoia
Wow! That’s a big build! Very nice!
I recently did new bilstiens and some other upgrades which has made the truck worlds better
@@MartyMotoring That's nice I probably should have done the same thing lol. I was just wanting a simple lift. But I said screw it you only live once. It is unbelievably nice it drives amazing. My friend Has a 2017 Toyota Tacoma. We just went camping and on a pretty rough road. He put his in 4x4 And kind of had a little bit of struggle. I left mine and 2 wheel drive. And it went through everything like it was nothing.. No spinning or anything.. I was amazed. The four I would have had to put it in 4x4. It is all wheel drive tho. Size 35in tires Make a world of difference. My friends tacoma had regular Stock tires. So he was spinning quite a bit?
I have an 04 with 180k & I love it.
I've had it since 2017. It runs like a dream & is super clean.
Now no vehicle is perfect so they all have their flaws. So a couple of things about first gen Toyota SUV & trucks. One: Lower ball joints can be known to fall off so change them with OEM ones every 70 to 100k miles. If you buy one & aren't sure of it's history, just change them asap.
Two: they have an interference engine so just like the lower ball joints, make sure to change that timing belt every 100k miles.
Stay up to date on those two & you're set for miles of reliability 👌
Best truck money can buy, just bought 2006 limited sequoia for $5k beautiful truck!!!
How many miles?
@@mcUSA94 310km
My next 4runner is a 1st gen Sequoia. Definitely checks all my boxes too. Best Toyota for the money imo.
They're underrated for the time being, but I'm seeing some crazy prices on a few. I'm going to snag me a clean 4x4 this year before they get over priced. Sit my rust free 4x4 98 4runner aside for awhile.
Your truck looks fkn great 💪
Facebook marketplace someone’s 05 Sequioa just described theirs…
Engine overheated a month ago, looses water, slight knocking can be heard. Fresh oil change one week before overheating. Timing belt and water pump at 290,000. I've taken it off the road but can be driven around the yard.
Clean inside, 4x4 worked this past winter, exterior looks pretty good, frame repair has been done 2 years ago- pretty solid. $1250
Sounds like a deal! is the repairs worth it?
Yes! I got mine for 3k . Cant wait to fix it up for off-road
I just bought one like a month ago 2004 2wd sr5 with 95k miles has 96k now but I bought it for $5600 base model but it’s so nice and clean for the year got good power too but I’d love to get a face lifted one lol
Love the 1st gen Sequoia. Such a great SUV!
Had to subscribe with a Sequoia that clean 😍. Would like to ask you what radio you have installed? as I ended purchasing a Yamaha DX. But yours looks updated and stole my heart.
These things good for 500,000 miles, no problem.
Got my 06 4x4 in 2020 for $5k with 214,000. Just put brand new Falken Wild peak AT3s . Love it.
Hey Marty congrats on the buy I have the exact same model also high milage but I Love the truck the size the real estate inside and the presence on the road, Minus the Mpg's lol but hey you cant expect that size of Suv to have great fuel economy and the more I work on her the more I fall in love Cheers you just got yourself a Sub.
Is it possible to get 19mpg?
I have a 2002 with a 6 inch lift, i love it so much
Got one for 2800 . Tag tax and title
Rack and pinion, front shocks door panels , interior door handles, front bumper repair , tailgate lock repair ,
Side mirrors .
Funny I got one that needs almost exactly all that
@@atlaslion5128 let me know how it goes sir
Ha! I just got 1 like this for free!! My brother did not want to pull his camper on a rusty bolt, spray paint would not have taken care of that (or his 4 grandkids)...it is also black!! Same/Same!! But I only have a little over 100k miles on mine🌋 SO glad you have 311..makes me happy already! THANKS DUDE!!
Got a super nice 2005 Sequoia 👍👍.
I got a 2002...
I personally love these SUVs for their size, comfort and quality but don't have means to afford one. Hope for the best
Brake light is master cylinder
I've had the same SUV but '04, since 2010. 210k miles and it will take a LOT more than 3900 to get it from me. Nice find., enjoy.
Penn state gomey how's it running
Ive been looking at the 2nd gen. Doing some research on good and bad years to get. Looks like the 09, 10, 11, and 12 are better years. Im not too worried about the higher milage because it's a Toyota. It just seems like the issues these vehicles have can be pretty expensive ones. I'm as talented as you and do not do my own maintenance. One skill I wish I had...but, maybe someday. I am wanting to build the back out for my photography business and are so I can sleep inside as well as hold my gear. I like the 4WD aspect for better shots with my drone. Thanks for the video.
Very nice! That would be a great setup. If you want simplicity and less issues I’d definitely recommend the 2008+ over the first gen like mine. The first gen required timing belt changes every 100k, lower ball joints as well, and they tend to be rusty.
The second gens have the bigger engine with a timing chain that doesn’t need replaced, and they fixed the lower ball joint design - it’s a lot safer.
@@MartyMotoringhmm. Then why do people seem to value the 1st gen’s over the 2nd?
I found one with 180000 miles for 8800, think its still a good deal?
Love mine, I bought a 2011 with 43,000 miles!
What gas mileage are you getting on the highway - outside of city driving?
Hey Marty! Dude you inspired me to get a is350 years go. i bought a 2012 is350 f sport. then i bought a wrecked 2009 ISF. I haven't seen your channel in a while and decided to see what you were up to. I was shocked! I didn't know you bought an ISF or a Seqouia. Low and behold guess what else is in my drive way... a 2004 seqouia limited black with 240,000 miles. i bought in december 2022 hahahaha small world. i would love to see what you do with it. I love the Seqouia! I bought it for long road trips. currently i have a Evap code i cant figure out for the life of me. 😑but it runs and drives so smooth!
Welcome back! Lol there's so many videos on RUclips that it's so easy to miss new ones!
But that is awesome, the ISF is a beast of a car, and so is the Sequoia! This is my 2nd Sequoia, and they are super solid cheaper SUVs. You have less miles than me which is great! I can't wait to do more with mine! Great combo!
@Mr.E First thing is to buy an OEM gas cap from a dealership, if you haven't already. They're not that expensive and may solve your problem
@@heavilypeted The code is for a large leak detected. The gas cap hisses when i remove it so i think it has good back pressure. ill try that though but im wondering if its a canister purge valve issue.
I think I over paid at 13k for an 06 limited with 130k miles 4x4 clean grandma owned but I still love it and don’t mind that i spent that much.
Bought a 02 for 1k. Someone took the cats. I bought new ones and now I've put about 1k miles in it and no issues
Yepp, I Have a 2006. SR5 325000 miles. 👊🏼💪🏼👍🏼. Work at a Dealership Delivering Wholesale Parts. 1Paintless Dent Repair Guy had 650000 miles on His when He Sold it😳😳👍🏼
Nice score. Can’t find any of them in California 😢 people buy them up and drive the price up too
Mine is only 2WD but I love it. I don't care about 4WD because Sequoias aren't that great for offroad anyway.
Hi Marty, do you by chance have the link to that bluetooth adapter? I recently was given a 2007 Sequoia Limited and that head unit radio is starting to act janky. Would like to upgrade to use my own music. TIA!
if you shift into 2 on the column and press shift L it will put it in first gear
Thanks, you told everything and in a short period of time. Nice review.
Can't beat a good Toyota!!
Thanks! This was very helpful.
I’m looking at one tomorrow 55000 miles 2007 sr5 4wd. Is 15k a good price for the miles and year. Car is clean no rust since is a California car interior is clean and vehicle is well maintained the owner is an older gentleman only one owner
Would love one of these myself!
Hi Marty. Whats the name of bluetooth adapter? Is it a plug and play adapter or i have to wire in stuff in order to get bluetooth?
Great vehicles the Toyota Sequoia
Looking for plastic interior window trim? Where can I find for all of my windows??
Ty
Just bought a 02
I'm thinking to get one Toyota Sequoia 2006
any idea on the trac lights being on and won’t go off. . No check engine light though
Hmm sounds like an abs issue - gotta get it scanned with a scanner that supports abs module reading
How often does the timing belt, coating and ball joints need to be done? I have always gotten vehicles checked out. Do you always ask owner to let you take it to get it checked? Just want your opinion. I am thinking about getting a Sequoia, but some of the best ones are in rural areas and don't have a chain mechanic business that is open on a Saturday.
Timing belt and water pump are recommended every 90-100k miles. Lower ball joints about the same time period. The coating should last a long time if cared for.
I usually check the car out myself but bringing it to a mechanic isn’t a bad idea.
@@MartyMotoringThanks so much for your opinion. We have to replace a vehicle for a second time in 2 years because of a reckless driver. We were sitting at a light waiting behind other cars for it to change and someone was not even watching the road and slammed into us at high speed without braking. She just said she looked away, but we think she must have been doing something, like be on her phone. People are so reckless today. Accidents happen, but pure recklessness is a sin. I hate it happened at all because she sandwiched us in with two other cars up front. Her insurance is going up and I hope that will teach her, but I rather preachers in this land repent and get back to the truth and teach people to love thy neighbor again by the Word of God. I forgive her because she owed up to the fact it was her fault and was sorry to see us hurt so bad. I and my daughters are still recuperating and this happened last Thursday night. The condition and the mind of the people out there is bad. When I was young, there weren't the massive amount of recks or sin for that matter as there is today. Jesus said repent or perish. I feel for the young and want them to find the truth in the Word of God for themselves. I want them to study the Bible approved and form their own churches if necessary . Most churches keep their tax exempt status by not preaching on certain subjects, leaving a lot of truth of God's Kingdom Ways out. What is that Saying? Oh! " The truth shall set you free." I thank you for your education in this vehicle. This helps me out. Here is a man starting his own Ekklesia (church) in his home. ruclips.net/video/Y4ZjqyW3xDA/видео.htmlsi=hpws2QSSkS6-TzRx also this other brother wakes people up to see truth. ruclips.net/user/shortsYWn46ZXp05s?si=g_5vIbpDCVEvLj5g God Bless you in Jesus Christ.
$1100
Hi was wondering what model or where to get the blue tooth device you mentioned to connect to phone Crux or something like that?
Hey! I got it from Crutchfield.com. The Crux BT adapter.
Do you remember what exhaust you had on your 2002? 🤤
Just cut out the muffler and put a glasspack in there, had it welded. I'm doing a proper aftermarket muffler this time, still cheaper than an exhaust system
I got mine at 180k miles for 8900$
Now it has 239k and Iv done so much work to it it’s infuriating it’s my daily driver. I mean Iv done everything to it repair wise that can go wrong. Almost worth buying one with 300k miles so someone else fixes those 225k repairs that happen like clock work. And then you can redo the things you need for cheaper
I got the same sequoia
that 4.7 v8 Motor Is known as the million mile motor.... It's literally gone a million miles for a lot of owners. If you Google the million mile engine that motor will pop up. Japanese engineers that 1st made it were upset with it because it never failed during their stress testing They wouldn't have kept making it. If there wasn't a market for v8 motors In the US. That's why they move That division. of their company to the United States. Mine had 205,000 miles on it. Most of them will go over six hundred thousand miles if you take care of the regular maintenance Anyway just thought I would share that. Yeah they also sprayed the undercarriage with some cheap coating used to be a recall for it. That's why a lot of them are notorious for rusty undercarriages. You are fortunate you got one that has no rest underneath it. Mine had a little bit but not bad.
Nice! Yeah these engines are good if you replace the timing belt on time and keep up with everything. I just did valve cover gaskets and Lower ball joints and chasing down an oil leak.
This 4.7L V8 is solid and actually derived from the 4.0L in the Lexus LS400 made in the 90s. Very similar to the 4.3L later produced. They went to this 4.7L and then the 5.7L in 2007/2008. Plus my 2008 ISF saw the first 5.0L V8 in production from Toyota/Lexus so that was cool and powerful!
Toyota V8s aren’t the most powerful but definitely last a long time!
Hoping my Sequoia does
Hop on the 3rd row. Do you fit well ?
I fit but it’s not comfortable 😂 I’m also 6’1” and 280lbs
How did you make the back window go up ?
Turn key to the left
180 2002 is mine like new😊
I have a 2001 Toyota Sequoia and I don't sell it in any price
4.7
These are WAY overpriced in my area. Most people wanting $15k-$20k for one with 150k+ miles. Outrageous
Are you worried about clogged cats that some of these seem to have?
You can solve that real quick and easily tho heh
Haven’t heard of that issue but easy fix lol
@@thoggboogus2560 Can you point me in the right direction on what spacers you used? My sequoia is outsmarting me and still pulling a CEL.... *Sad face*
Wow, 311K
313k now 😅
Mine has 317,000. Mi. . i paid 3000. In 2021.
Not bad at all!
It’s old as me
Every thing about these is awesome except the fuel economy and the garbage 4wd system
Yeah 13-15mpg isn’t great but what’s wrong with the 4wd? Mine has a locking center diff along with true 4HI and 4LO. If it’s not locked, it acts as an open diff AWD system
@@MartyMotoring i was getting 12 mpg with alot of highway and the center diff lock didn't make any difference in my experience it couldn't handle off-road stuff a real transfercase 4x4 could and it was almost not able to pull a old honda accord out of the snow i was so excited to buy it 08 with all the options and it let me down so bad i traded it in on a 2013 4wd f150 ecoboost (a proper beast that now has over 260k and still tows like its nothing) 😮💨
Actually you got a killer deal. It has a dvd player and so much stuff because is the limited is amazing
I've had the same SUV but '04, since 2010. 210k miles and it will take a LOT more than 3900 to get it from me. Nice find., enjoy.
