2012 Toyota Sequoia

I think my wife designed it

I want this car

Pros: "Comfort, safety and its a toyota - Expensive!!!!!!"

Cons: "Lack of space in the back like a suburban"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Having a large family safety it of upmost concern, so when we needed to replace our '97 suburban we looked everywhere. My kids are tall and the back of the 'burb has 6 inches of space and space where size 16 shoes will not fit! Unlike anyone else the Sequoia has 6 head rests and 6 shoulder belts, how novel. It has a lot of space between the second doors and the door column so feet can pass by and without scratching nice shoes. The steering is tight and mirrors are large enough to comfortably tow a trailer. Finally, when I pull in to a parking slot its just feels natural because it is easy to figure out where all 4 corners of the car are. I will miss the space in the back for hauling, but it's worth getting a trailer. I'm 6'5 and can recline the 3rd row to fit pretty comfortably. Likewise I have a bad lower back and the front seats are about the only place I sit to get relief."

"This car has more options than I ever imagined. Window screens are awesome for those riding in the back seats. Overall room in this vehicle is awesome. Could use a little more cargo space. More storage compartments then I could ever use. Drives amazing. Very comfortable ride no matter what seat you chose to sit in. The quality of the vehilce is great as well as the design. I LOVE this car and will never own a different car."

Great Car!

By SUV Enthusiast (SC) on Tuesday, May 14, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 15,000

Pros: "interior space, turning radius, Bluetooth quality"

Cons: "interior quality, size of fuel tank, body roll"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"Have owned a 2012 Sequoia for one year now and cannot be happier. The car is very wide and has lots of room, accelerates quickly for a vehicle its size, and looks great driving through town. The backseats are much bigger than competitors (Tahoe/suburban, Armada, Expedition) and the whole family loves going for ride. One drawback is fuel economy (averaging about 14 MPG right now) which wouldnt be a big problem if the car had a bigger tank because when filled up it only has 250 miles. Only other drawback is interior quality, which seems like it should be higher for a loaded $65,000 SUV. Overall, love the car and plan to keep it for many years!"

"This car is great. has more than enough power and really short turning diameter. Been looking to buy one and take it to the sahara but a little out of my reach. If you want luxury in a off road package then this is your car."

Excellent SUV

By linchang (OH) on Sunday, April 21, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 85,000

Pros: "PLENTY OF SPACE, VERY RELIABLE VEHICLE"

Cons: "NONE"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I bought it used in 2009 with 13K, if you do maintenance as indicated you won't have any trouble with this vehicle. I also bought a Toyota Extended Warranty, good for 6 years from 1st date in service or 100,000 miles, which ever comes 1st, Toyota stands behind their warranty and verhicles. This is the 3rd Sequoia I've owned. BEST ONE YET!!!"
