get a Sequoia. Then after having a couple of kids like 10 year later, the #### thing still looks the same. Same engine getting 10 mpg too. Hows come they resdesign the camry every other year, the Tundra every 5 years, 4runner bout every 4 years, but don't touch the Sequoia? Is it because it's probably primarily an American car and the Japanese hate us?

redesigned it. The first generation looked better and had a nicer interior IMO. The Japanese don't like change is the only thing I can figure.

As are we. Everything we've looked at so far seems like it

would either end up being too small, is too expensive, or will be a huge POS...Possibly all 3. I like the Highlander but wife's brother has one so of course we can't get one of those.

Read up on all the new issues the Tundra is having. Poor build quality. Wastegate issues.
Toyota will iron them out, but considering how much they'll share, might want to wait.

confident Toyota will have that figured out by the time the Sequoia goes into production. Judging by Toyota dealerships the past year or so, getting one may be difficult, however.

Dealer guy I know got one in yesterday (was already sold) and expects a platinum in 56 days.
And I'm not sure how many trucks were actually affected.
There seems to be one guy on YouTube who has been pretty noisy about his (understandably, with the fix that's required on a brand new truck) and the pics of his truck getting repaired are all over the internets:
Toyota kinda crapped on him with only 330 miles on the truck and NOT (voluntarily) taking it back, But I'm not sure how wide spread the issue really is.

There are a couple of new '21 double cab Tundras in Cola.

Carmax and Vroom want $10K more for the used exact same model trucks with 10-15K miles on them.
I thought about buying 2 of them new, and flipping them to Carmax or Vroom and making $10-$15K real quick.

437 hp V6? The new V6 is more powerful than the old V8

Ok, nevermind, looks like standard engine will be 348 hp. Which should be plenty, right?

Its doubtful you'll see many more in production in the next 5 years.

I think they did a mild refresh in there somewhere

mostly cosmetic front end and tail light stuff, some other cosmetic junk (blacked out badges etc and rims) and added some xfer case goodies on some 4wd and the TRD-OR models.
But yeah..same anemic 4.0l v6, same transmission from start to now. You could prob pull the door off a 2010 model and stick it on a 2022. They should have left the 2006-2009 v8 in there.
