I never brought up the politics in this forum, another member. You wanted to firmly stay on topic if I recall

THEN

You were the one who brought up the spelling of "litre"

Not demeaned at all but I firmly believe that you and some other Toyoto Sequioa owners have chosen a very poorly designed interior (for front dash ergonomics and nav reach is really bad), door and other materials which Toyota has cost cutted out on many other features that are on top level Toyota and Lexus vehicles. Toyota has cost cutted the interior of the Sequioa to the point where part of the dash is spray painted, seat anchors are stripped, fuel door locks are deleted, power seat controls are unpainted, 4 way power on the passenger side.

Furthermore the towing capacity has been advertised as 10,000 which has made many really believe that they can haul two adults, 5 kids, gear etc and tow 10,000lbs when in reality it can't. Yes the IRS helps with ride but the Sequioa lacks any toughness from going this route and a has VERY poor payload capacity.

Sadly...if you were to haul seven 175 pound adults in the Sequioa...you would have no room for gear and no room for a trailer.....you could still haul 300 pounds of gear in the in LC because of the better payload...no trailer either for the LC.

I have noticed that the Sequioa has done a lot of things right however for 55k I expected a lot more. This Toyota Sequioa is selling at %12 above last year which tells that it is clearly not selling as close to what Toyota wanted. As for 200 series...8 day on the selling lot for LX570 is impressive and a 82% year over year gain in sales is impressive for the LC.....
