The only major difference with the H1 is ground clearence which is greater, and no running boards.

Remember that thge sequoia has a 122" wheelbase, much less than a double cab Tundra, so while the Tundra is higher, the sequoia has the same or better off-raod capabilities if you consider the amount of angle at center of vehicle when traveling over rocks.
Everyone would do well not to engage PM. He's a waste of time with limited knowledge and lots of baseless opinion on issues of no importance. I placed him on my ignore list a long time ago because he's not very insightful or knowledgeable and he's typically more interested in antagonizing then sharing information.
