In the US, a similarly equipped Plat is 59000 $ plus some change.
Whether I had purchased it in the US or Canada at a point when the Canadian $ was at parity or above the US dollar, it wouldn't have made a significant difference. In fact, I would have to find a dealership that would agree to sell me a new car (the dealerships in the states close to NB -Maine, Vermont- would not sell me a new Sequoia). Furthermore, the cost of the trip to the states, the paperwork and the frustration in dealing with customs is not worth the effort.
Can you please explain how you figure that I would have saved money by buying in the US? I Am I missing something here?

Thanks

I have heard several instances where people found it well worth it to purchase their Tundra in the United States, and I would've assumed that it would be the same with the Sequoia...
