A comfortable vehicle for all your needs
All seats are comfortable, is tight, runs great. We can drive four hours in it and be comfortable. Holds a lot of items, storage. We use it like a truck. Would definitely buy another Sequoia. It's our go to vehicle for trips or for family get together sorry for shopping trips.

The quality of the mechanics and how it will last forever
Interior design is nice with captain chairs. Leather interior. Miss the extra cargo space that I had in my 2005 sequoia. Quality engine that is known to last

The Toyota sequoia is a reliable large but easy to drive vehicle.
It is been a very steady and reliable car. I have not had any serious issues with the vehicle. I rarely ever have to take it to get it fixed. It is a very comfortable and safe vehicle to drive. I have a lot of comfort driving my Toyota sequoia and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable SUV. Its performance has been outstanding.

It has 4 wheel drive and it is great on the beach in the sand and great in the snow or rain.
I love that it drives nicely. I love that it has a great stereo sound system. It fits my family of 7 nicely with room for one more and it's not as big as a Suburban. No dislikes or complaints.

Love my sequoia
I have a 4Runner with 280K but wanted to upgrade since my daughter turned 16 and she could drive the 4Runner. I knew I was going to get another Toyota so I upgraded with a 2013 Sequoia and I Love it!

The car is the best especially for big families towing capacity could be better.
I love this car and how it performs when towing a trailer. The only downfall to having a big car is the gas mileage is not the friendliest. If there was a way for a big car like this one to have better fuel economy it was be the best thing ever. Highway is not too bad but just wish it was a little better especially over the summer when gas prices are crazy high.

Best vehicle ever. Would highly recommend buying it.
Best vehicle I've ever had. Reliable, low maintenance. Gas mileage relatively good. Comfortable and nice looking in spite of being a large vehicle. Never experienced any problems other than usual battery, alternator replacement, oil change, routine maintenance.

It if definitely a family vehicle. Perfect size and I love the way it rides.
I love the size of my vehicle. It is perfect for a large family and for my kids to bring their friends around.

The Toyota sequoias is the car I partially own. It is good car.
My vehicle is ok I feel as if it may be a SUV. I don't really know much about the vehicle because it is not necessarily mine. My parents bought the vehicle. The car is a Toyota and the model of the car is a sequoia. It was bought in 2013. So we've had this car for awhile. It is the main car we drive in our household. It is silver and has about 8 seats.

Toyota sequoia is a sturdy, efficient car that will get the job done.
The gas mileage goes a long way, but the oil tank is so easy to dry out. Using a deviant of the recommended oil is better for the engine. The interior is simple with suede upholstery so you are sitting nice and comfy. It is reliable to take you wherever you need to go. You are better off with this make than a convertible.

The real review of the Toyota sequoia.
I have had problems with my brakes and brake pads. It does burn a lot of gas to the mile as well but it is a SUV so it is to be expected. I am at the moment having small problems with my starter and engine valves. The tires are better now because I have put a good brand in Goodyear tires on my vehicle other than that no real problem.
