Review

Traded in a Nissan Armada that I loved for the new 2010 Sequoia. While I could have saved $4,000 with a rebate on the new Armada, after I test drove the new Toyota Sequoia I had to have it. It is simply the best large SUV on the market now. It handles almost like a car, rides great, and gets better EPA than my Armada. BUY NOW - YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!

Favorite Features

Ride comfort and handling.

Suggested Improvements

Indoor release for fuel tank and an option without the sunroof (all models come with sunroof).

Review

This 2010 Toyota Sequoia is my 4th new Toyota purchased. My platinum has every possible option available. I am very happy with the vehicle overall. However, Toyota's legal dept is ruining Toyota. The Navigation and factory remote starter are useless. As soon as the vehicle is in motion the NAV locks up so that not even your passenger can enter a new address or search for fuel or food. So basically you are forced to pull over into the break down lane (which is not only illegal but dangerous) to update your NAV. Also the RADAR cruise control does not work when the windshield wipers are activated. Give me a break Toyota, I know how to drive in the rain.

Favorite Features

Red rock interior, third row fold up seating, radar cruise control

Suggested Improvements

Take the locks off the navigation, Install a remote starter that you can actually use remotely

Review

My 2010 Toyota Sequoia has a nice smooth quiet ride, has plenty of power, and great handling. This is my third Toyota, and I am a very satisfied customer. However, the factory JBL navigation is the worst navigation I have ever had the displeasure of using. All essential features are locked out and cannot be accessed when the vehicle is in motion. My advice, purchase aftermarket NAV and backup camera.

Favorite Features

Red Rock leather interior

Suggested Improvements

Provide owners with a Navigation override.

Best SUV I've owned

Review

I've had 3 Escalades and 2 Blazers---I just took delivery of 2010 Platinum Sequoia and there isn't an American SUV nor for that matter any SUV that comes close---I've tested Lexus 570 but for me it was too small as was Toyota's Landcruiser. This vehicle has every option one could possibly get for thousands of dollars less than any other vehicle in it's class on the road today. The ride is amazing and with a 6 yr 125,000 mile warranty, need I say anymore.

Favorite Features

The stereo, Bluetooth, phone capability, Radar cruise control, and all the other power options that comes in the Platinum, oh yeah folding rear seats.

Suggested Improvements

none at this time

Review

Having owned a '04 Sequoia Limited, I was interested to see what they would improve. I surely had some complaints with my '04, but still loved it. First, they have brightened up the interior and all switches are well displayed at night. Second, the dreaded third row seats. I couldn't stand folding or removing the seats. They have simplified that with the third row laying flat with a touch of a button. Third, if you were in the third row you were locked in until somebody let you out. Now you just step on a release on the back of the second row and the seat slides forward and you are out. The interior has been upgraded to be first class.

Favorite Features

Ease of access into the third row. No tumble of the seat, just lift a lever and it slides forward. Amount of leg room in the second row. Third row has ample leg room and the seat fold down flat with a touch of a button. Power lift gate. Backup camera along with sonar is great.

Suggested Improvements

I'm 5'10" and don't have a problem, but a couple of taller people have had some issues with headroom in the first row. I have about four inches of clearance. I don't understand why they decreased the headroom so much.

Best SUV on the road!

Review

This has to be the best SUV currently on the road. Prior to this I owned a Suburban. Chevrolet cannot compare to the quality and performance of this vehicle. The interior was extremely well thought out. Options are minimal making competitors fail in comparison as they nickle and dime you to get close to the quality of the Sequoia. The engine performance is excellent. Good mileage 17MPG (13.8 L/ 100km). I do not notice any lack of performance when pulling my 7000lb travel trailer. The vehicle is children friendly and focused with ease of access to all rows and built in sun shades with all windows. The dealership treatment is second to none with seven years of oil changes included.

Favorite Features

Everything, bluetooth, sat radio, engine, mileage, third row access.

Suggested Improvements

None so far.
