The 5.7 is a design that is modeled off the 4.6 Lexus LS model...not a USA design. As for features. The 200 series ups the the Sequioa in everything except for rear fold flat, interior space and tow capacity....but GVWR offsets that. Tell me 200 series was designed off the Sequioa platform. Everything 200 series one ups the Sequioa.
The 200 series and the Sequioa were design by different departments in Toyota Japan and USA....so they are not the same.

Does it really madder the future sake in the overall business Toyota Motor sales does? It's been interesting reading these post to some degree but overall it seems like a huge Debate and hell that's not needed during an election year (page i know your excluded in that
).
Overall I think Toyota might Ditch one in the lineup but the future of Large V8 suv's are going to die out either way you look at this let's face reality.About mention of Toyota during a re badge Sequoia as something else they could have done this with the Tundra Crew max and re badged that as a Lexus LT 570 and went against Lincoln LT but Lexus Choose not too because it would damage the Luxury resell's market value. Toyota could be Like Gm and use one platform for a lot of makes Saturn,GM,Chevy but entirely there are a few model's shared to kept cost down.
