    If MPG’s are an issue for you: Don’t look at these rigs , move along.
    But, if you want a great safe family vehicle, bullet proof engine and 4x4 transmission, a living room on wheels… well my friend, this is the right for ‘ya !! 👍

    You should mention that you can go from 2WD to AWD to true 4X4. Not many vehicles can do that. very handy for snowy roads.

      What’s the difference between AWD and true 4x4?

    • @rupertcornelius8924
      @rupertcornelius8924 Před 5 měsíci +7

      ​@@FathersFuckingBiscuitstypically in all wheel drive, and many 4 wheel drive vehicles the transfer case is setup like a limited slip differential. Meaning it transfers power to the axle set (front or rear) that are slipping. What sets this transfer case apart from most others is the ability to lock it. In 2 wheel drive it sends power to the rear axles. In 4 wheel high it sends power to both front and rear but it sends more power to the axles that are slipping/spinning. So if you have a front wheel in the air or mud or something it's going to send most of the power to the spinning wheel. When you select 4 low it locks the transfer case and splits power equally between the front and rear regardless of whether or not one of them is spinning. It does still have open diffs though. So if right rear and front left are in the air or mud or whatever you're still in trouble. This drive train with front and rear air or electric locking diffs makes it "true 4x4" and is virtually unstoppable. This type of transfer case is only found in the Sequoia, Land Cruiser and Limited 4Runner (4wd). As far as Toyota SUVs go.

    We had two Sequoia's as family haulers - loved them both for 125k miles. Put TRD supercharger on the 2008 and the 2011 copies we had (both Platnium) - 2008 tuning was never quite right - knocked under load (hard accelation, towing, 91 Cali gas) - after dealer too three tries to fix - we got lucky as we live in S. Cal and they sent me up to TRD in Costa Mesa and they tuned the truck on the dyno - it was amazing after that - towed 7,500 lb. boat - temp gauge never moved - rock solid. We had air suspension which gave a great ride. Can't go wrong - our 2nd one we sold to a friend and they have over 200k miles on it - still on original motor and tranny!

    I’ve got the 2020 TRD Pro. Solid truck. Tons of space with three kids. Road trips, over-landing, moderate off-roading. I have zero complaints. Legendary longevity doesn’t hurt either. Yours looks great on 37’s. I’m going Westcott preload collars and 295 r70 18. Should be more than enough for what we do…at least until those fox shocks need to be replaced😁

    @aaronking8694 Před 10 měsíci

    My family and I, wife, 2 kids, just got back from OBX and Carova Beach, NC and the 4WD northern section is all sand and dunes, no roads. It was great, but we have a 2nd Gen stock base Highlander with 4WD or really its 50/50 (fulltime) AWD with all nanny buttons off, anyhow.. It did the job actually quite well to my surprise, but I have talked with wifey and she is adamant about keeping a 3rd row seating option and I want to have greater ground clearance with true 4WD. The 2nd gen Sequoia seems to check these boxes and adds to the cabin space available. It also helps that we are a Toyota household. Thanks for this content and please keep it coming!

    I was super close on buying a 2011 SR5 in great condition from a dealer. They were lagging on a couple things so we could close out the deal and I ran into a better deal on a 2005 LX470. I love my LX but whenever I see a Sequoia (1st and 2nd gen) there is a part of me that still wants one. Had I gotten a Sequoia I would still be lusting for a LX/LC.

Just need to figure out how to put a rear window switch inside the back for sleepovers. Keep it coming!

    The sequoia can tow up to 10,000lbs with the 5.7L V8 and tow package. There is a 4.7L engine that tows up to 7,800lbs. All depends on the model, that’s per the manual. Mine does tow up to 10,000lbs, I had to verify this because I pull a travel trailer. Although I only pull below 9,000lbs at max. Secondly, although there are many parts for the Sequoia for the front end because many parts match the Tundra, you’ll have a harder time finding parts for the rear. Especially if you want to lift or upgrade your shocks. I had to buy King shocks because at the time they were the only ones that made rear shocks for sequoia’s without having to order custom shocks.

    • @CoolGuyClub
      @CoolGuyClub  Před 11 měsíci

      Hey thanks for the clarification, I had to look up the tow rating myself but I didn’t check the manual. (I should have).
      However I will say there are a ton of shock options now.
      Eibach, Elka, dobinsons, and bilstein all make a shock that will fit.

    Great video man. We have a 14’ sequoia. Love it. We live in Montana on a long dirt road and it’s super nasty in winter and super dusty in the summer. So that back window I actually hate lol. It’s basically unusable as it will get scratched up or peck full of mud and dust if I use it. It’s a cool feature but not for people who live in a nasty climate.

My tundra has 367,000 miles on it, all original except two starters and about to add a new alternator. Other than that, it's all original, the motor, transmission and fluid....dont know why they say dont change it...but I am going to do it anyway, water pump is still kicking even though I carry one with me in my spare parts tubby when I travel...of yes, I forgot, a big part replacement....my fan clutch. Bought the truck with 124,000 on it and it pulls strond as ever and love 4 wheeling in it and pulling stupid people out the ditches when it snows in Nashville. This winter is going to be especially cold fun because of all the non-snow and ice people that have moved here.... cannot wait for early morning hot totty and hot chocolate towing. The beer is always cold in the back in the winter saving on ice. The yeti keeps it for like two weeks or more in the winter.

    I need something to tow my car to the track and double as something I can haul around my giant bernese mountain dog around in. my favorite part about these is that they don't appeal to the offroading/overlanding crowd as much as the gx470/460s that I've been crossshopping, so more space, more towing capacity, more power, all for less money.

    The first gen has a timing belt. If you service a first gen the 4.7 has gone a million miles and gets 15 mpg, i love the second gen and the 5.7 but its not getting 15 plus the first gen is the best looking and the most functional size

Its basically the same without a bed” seriously. Toyota Rules! Same with the 1st gen tundra. They’d figure. “Some people will want a v8 suv that is not mid size and thats why they discontinued the v8 4runner and did the sequoia. Although i still think since the v8 4runner came out they should have done a special edition v8 tacoma.
