It sounds like a basic vehicle, older technology. And being a Toyota, if it can be driven in a cost-effective manner, will last a long time. And when selling, it has some worth. Thanks.
@@Shane23Armada She lives in another state. Gas is really cheap there. So she never complained about fueling cost. It's got only 100k miles on it, she doesn't drive much. It's V8 AWD SUV. I guess mpg is not gonna be much different than your Armada. They're designed to do heavy towing, off road, or blizzard winter.
Nothing but electrical problems from Chevy Tahoe’s even the new ones... I’d take one of these sequoias any day because they are reliable an not be broken Down all the time
Not everything that's new is good, and not everything that's old is bad. Wish more new cars on the market today subscribed to the KISS principle like the Sequoia does.
Old school definitely has some advantages. I have a 5.7 V8 SUV too. But mine is a ‘96 Suburban, which I bought new 23 years ago. It has rear wheel drive and cloth seats for much better reliability and wear, the spare tire is inside (unlike new ones) to stay clean and allow for bigger 42 gallon gas tank. Even the paint still looks much better than I see on much newer models.
I have a '02 Sequoia with 300k miles. Everything works. No squeaks. Engine has never been apart. Nothing is falling off. It just needs an Unleaded Anonymous intervention.
I have a 2018 Sequoia Limited 4x4 and average around 14-15 city and 16-17 highway. My brother just bought a 2023 Sequoia for his family and his mpg is not much better. I told him to buy a 2nd gen used but wanted to spend $75,000 and get barely better mpg. Toyota really screwed up the new Sequoia and the new Tundra.
Scotty knows how to fix cars, but knows nothing else about cars, and most of his videos are now click bait. I used to watch him, but just can't anymore.
chad haire Fine if you can afford it.I can’t. 😂 These companies are profiting more on finances than selling the actual car.I want you talk more about the stupid payments. 70 percent of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.Average American pays $500 monthly on the damn car payment. Government likes it’s people poor to control them easier. Please attack the manufacturers are prices more frequently specially on the extra options like heating steering wheel. How we got there?Oh god
@@chadhaire1711 I think in your VW Golf video you also mentioned standard emergency brake. I have watched other reviewers focus on soft touch materials in the same way. Either way, it's your review, but I find it interesting the focus of different reviewers.
my worst nightmare is the electronic e brake failing to disengage. The gears that pull the ebrake cables on some bmws are plastic from what I understand and can get chewed up soon.
I love my 2010.
An extremely reliable, safe, comfortable Tank !
Makes long trips with the whole family and cargo a breeze.
"the way it should be" kills me!
I love your plain and simple review!! This is excellent.
Oh my gosh, you're hilarious! I love your dry wit.. the best!!
@@johnnyrobby1 these are old videos--have the newer 2020 and 2021 out now

My auntie had sequoia for 13 years. Still drive like charm
1g2002541 what year ? How is the gas mpg . I have a 2013 armada, fill tank up 2x a week

1g2002541 I love those two truck though , the armada and sequoia very compact built. I drive from Canada nyc in a blizzard did very well

Steve Printy yea but this does 0-60 in about a third of the time, rides much better than your suburban, plus the reliability.

Trade it in on a Chrysler? LOL

Love this new color
funny how such an old outdated vehicle still manages to hold onto its value
Rajkiran Natarajan yea, or maybe it’s because it last over 100k unlike these other piece of shit suv’s😂😂
I only watched this video to make me feel better about my truck’s gas mileage.
Then wait until next week when I have the Land Cruiser. And the week after that when I get a huge RAM 3500.
What a beauty
Chad you can trick the fuel computer by taking the gas cap off and putting it back on. No additional fuel required.
I tried that--it didn't work unless some gas was put in.
Wow, that is a heavy SUV, 6000 lb curb weight? Chad, is that like 500 to 1000 pounds above average for a full size SUV?
The book says 6,025 for this, 5885 for Land Cruiser, 4570 for Highlander.
What skeleton that belong too?
I own an 05 Denali XL that still runs like a charm!
you must have got one of the good ones.
@@chadhaire1711 Yeah no kidding I have a 2016 Yukon denali I'm gonna trade one in for a toyota sequoia pro nothing but problems
time will tell
Scotty’s cousin?

chad haire lol .You reminded me of Scotty .The way you hate new unnecessary stupid technology . Scotty is the same.

Interesting that your pet peeve revolves around the emergency brake.
No i said I liked the MANUAL emergency brake here because electronic brakes SUCK

Hmm
You should do a Tahoe/Suburban.
none available at the moment
@@chadhaire1711 I see. Thanks for replying
