Default Re: 2008 Toyota Sequoia interior....What a shame

Its also the one of the best handling
Well, having a IRS makes no difference in handling as the first gen Seq was just as good on the skidpad as the current.

An IRS will always win out as a more comfortable ride for passengers.
As for ride. Ride is subjective. I for one cannot stand the ride of the LX470 or Lx570 ride and I hate the ride of the 100 series Landcruiser made for MY 06-07. Those models had the AHC suspension modulated by hydraulics.
As for ride of the new Sequioa Platinum. Not at all a fan. 1st gen Sequioa is pretty good. I have yet to drive the Sequioa Limited 4x4...but I will soon.

One feature that makes the Sequioa Platinum a more comfortable ride is the 2nd and third row manual sunshades. This feature helps out a lot. I still think Toyota made a mistake by not offering dual hvac for the 2nd row seats. At least they could of made this feature an option for the split row seats of the platinum.
As for third row. Yes the third row will be more comfortable in the Sequioa but I would never need the feature as I wish there was a delete option so I could have a lower load floor and a split hatch. As for 200 series they should have a delete option for third row as well.
I will gladly trade third row fold flat seats and IRS for a much nicer interior which the Sequioa lacks compared to Ford, Nissan.
