The cheap plastic in the third row is actually the normal/correct material. Normally manufacturers use a "grain" on their plastics to give it a specific texture or pattern to make it feel nicer to the touch. This is sometimes done by applying an acid to the steel tooling used in the injection molding. What you're seeing here is the plastic WITHOUT that, so the texture reflects the freshly machined steel that they are pumping liquid plastic into during the injection molding process. A lot of prototype and mule vehicles use these "ungrained" parts since it's quick and cheaper to make those tools. Toyota either gave you a preproduction model or just did some cost cutting on an area they didn't think customers would touch often. I find it very odd on an interior piece. Even Engine covers are grained.

Two things - there is a usb-c port on the passenger side of the third row, it is underneath the arm rest. Also, if this is a preproduction vehicle, there is a good chance the training in the third row plastic isn’t finalized yet so it might actually be a placeholder for a nicer plastic

Honestly, I don't get it. You pay 1/3 more for this than the new Sienna and pay 50% more in fuel, in order to get less functionality (Sienna is roomier with more cargo space). Unless you need the towing capacity and just like to burn out, why in the world would you buy this over the new bad-ass Sienna (which even looks better, in my opinion).

I will never understand why “car like” continues to be a staple of auto journalist lingo when talking about trucks and SUVs. Car like is the last thing I want out of a truck or truck-based SUV, especially in terms of comfort. A “car like” ride is stiff, rebound is fast and not compliant. I love the way the 4Runner and 200 series Land Cruiser ride with their soft, body rolling, incredibly capable suspension. When you go over bumps and harsh road joints there’s a moment of “float” instead of instant suspension reaction and recovery. NVH is better, lateral G’s are felt less as body roll redirects that energy. Please stop comparing large SUV’s and modern pickup trucks to cars lol, its just silly. Anyway, I had to point that out. Great review of a fantastic TRUCK from Toyota. They absolutely nailed this.

@@garytryan S-class Mercedes and 7 Series BMW’s aren’t representative of the majority of cars, and certainly don’t represent what people generally mean when they say “car-like.” Those magnificent vehicles have some body roll and float, as intended. The trouble is somewhat nebulous language and blanket statements used to describe somewhat nuanced things, like how a vehicle rides and handles. Two people might experience the exact same thing and describe it completely differently. No worries in that. Cheers!

Nice but I'm sticking with my 2nd generation Sequoia. Two things that jumped out at me were that the rear window no longer rolls down 😕 and when the 3rd row folds down it no longer creates a flush surface which really cuts down on the cargo functionality. Plus I'm keeping my tried-and-true 5.7 L V-8 which I know will give me hundreds of thousands of miles of use. I'll wait and see how long a turbo V-6 holds up. Great review as always.

I think people underestimate how great having a hybrid camping/offroad vehicle is. That battery can power everything you need for a few days and maybe never even have to run. You can sleep inside with the vehicle on all night with heat and the engine will only kick on every once in a while to recharge. It's kind of a game changer.

A gorgeous redesign! But That cargo area definetly is small for its class. But the tailgate glass opening is still a big perk. The MPG is attractive in its class. Save gas in the city commute, and have more hybrid torque during adverse weather or mild off roading. On pricing: the 2001 first generation SR5 started at around 35k MSRP, which, in 2022 dollars now is about 57k. Though the top trims of the 2022 far exceed the 2001 limited by a few thousand dollars. Of course, I say this as if I could ever anything above 50k HAHAHA...
