Take your winter clothes to the dealer. Turn up the A/C and climb in. Do you fit?

I had a 00 4runner, and I'm 6'1, ~210lbs. The car fit me AOK. It didn't fit the rest of my family and our gear tho, so we got the sequoia. The 03 and 04 4 runners should fit us much better, but I needed more cargo and rear seat room.

I miss the 4 runner frankly, but a bigger car is part of the family's need.

I strongly recommend you measure your garage before you buy the Sequoia. Backing up with the Sequoia takes a *lot* of getting used to. Much less visibility. I'm considering putting a video camera on the back so my wife doesn't panic about parking.

I wouldn't call the Sequoia nimble, it's too big for that title.
It has "enough" power with a blower installed. The 4runner made a great towing truck with a blower also.

It's a toss-up. The Sequoia is going to be more room than you need just for your body, but it's a LOT more vehicle.
(and the shifter is on the steering column - what were they thinking...)
