I'm the one that posted that the HiAce was replaced by the Previa in the late 80's which

HiAce was never sold in US or Canada.... Maybe Mexico. They actually still manufacture the Hiace as previa really never replaced anything in NA or anywhere else as they still make both.

The Sequioa is appealing to a completely different buyer who has 1/2 the income as those who purchase 200 series. Most who purchase the Seqiuoa very likely are more affected by gas prices and higher finacing rates and more payments that those who are purchasing Landcruiser. I guess only Toyota knows the real sales stats.
The sequioa is nowhere on the same level as 200 series, Range Rover, Porche, Audi, and Mercdes premium SUVs

Perhaps but my guess is they don't break 10,000 total LC/LX in the US, particularly if they end up offering incentives which will likely favor the Sequoia and not be offered on the LX

they are on target for 12-15k and the Lx570 is sitting 8 days on the lot before it being sold. A lot faster than the Sequioa....8 days if fastest in the industry right now. 200 series looks like it is selling well.
