The back window on the 4Runner rolls down as well. I just sold my 4Runner and bought the new 2021 Land Cruiser Heritage Edition and I miss that feature but I have found that the exhaust finds its way into the cabin when I do that...and, when I'm accessing the rear to grab stuff, I open the lift gate anyway. So, on the one hand it's nice but it really didn't provide much use for me.

Same here Fluffy. Purchased the 08 new when it came out and drove it 9 years (a record for me) traded it in on a 17 Yukon XL Denali and liked the Yukon, but missed the rear glass feature. 3 years later went back to Sequoia (2010 Limited). Just biding my time until late 2022 when the new sequoia will supposedly launch. If it’s anything like the Tundra, then TTV6 is the power plant ( no V8). Will probably give it some time and try to buy one after 1st year. Will definitely miss the V8 sound, but will appreciate the improved fuel/towing expected from the new power train.

Comes with a Torsen center diff in 4WL, so no binding at all when in tight turns on dry pavement, acts like an AWD system. My wife never takes it out of 4WL in the MN winters. You can push button lock the center diff, so it becomes 4x4 and should only be used off road or vey low traction conditions. Also comes standard with a 4.30 gears so it tows with ease. Also comes double wishbone suspension, only SUV with that design so it tows and handles pretty nimble for a tank.

Hey R, R, big fan. Problem is I hope that read the comments of lesser fans do not force them to pay money in order for the message to get anywhere. Anyway my concern. Twice on two different Sequoia reviews you said that the tailgate powered down but not up on one and was not powered at all on the other… I want you to prove it. A Toyota does not make things half powered and second even on a 60k vehicle, if is not powered Toyota would not waste time and money by putting a switch in there. Do me and fans a favor and revisit these videos and show that they are not powered. Thanks.

My 2008 Sequoia has 345,000 miles, however, I have replaced the engine block. Transmission shifts perfect, but for some reason, I do not have reverse. I have had three different mechanics charge me $ 600 each for a transmission solenoid, and it did not fix the problem. I now have some time oil leaks, but plan to get those fixed. I think I have replaced the radiator, but that was just because the mechanic twisted my arm that it could not be repaired. Driver's seat is worn-out and one upholstery shop quoted $ 250 to fix the seat. I think I am on original caliphers, brake rotors, muffler, catalytic-converter, etc. Probably all the light-bulbs have been replaced in the past two years. I love my SEQUOIA, but the gas mileage is 12 to 14 mpg. Ignition-coils seem to fail all the time. Disclaimer: I have not taken good care of my SEQUOIA
