I wish to see some pics -if possible - of that Pyrite Mica... What trim (SR5, Limited or Platinum) did you select...is is a 4WD one?...All the best enjoy it!
I have the Platinum with 4wd. I'll try to post pics once we get a few days of nice of weather and it isn't covered with salt.
Of all the nice features on this truck the thing that blows me away is how fast and smooth the acceleration is. Completely amazing for a 6000 pound vehicle.
After 25 years of driving Ford, GM and Chrysler....I'm totally impressed with everything so far. The NAV system is going to take some work to figure out but I'm sure we'll get the hang of it.
Mine is an '09 Platinum in Pyrite Mica with the Red Rock interior. I think it looks really good. I'm coming from an '05 Expedition and the Sequoia feels like a bigger truck especially the interior. It feels significantly roomier.
Also the number of controls/switches is unbelievable---I'll definitely have to read the manual for a change...I think it's only about 500 pages.
From the research I did I think the '09's are virtually the same as the '08's. i couldn't find a single spec which was different although I'd be happy to stand corrected.
Either way...I'm very impressed with the vehicle.
Hey Vermin... Are you in Canada? Toyota Website still advertises the 2008 models! I reached a dealer in California and they told me that the '09 models are not out yet <amazing> plus they are doubting that Toyota will make Platinums for 2009..., I think the dealer -themselves- wanting to get rid of their pile of the 2008 Sequoias.......hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Hey Windancer...yes I'm in Canada. Got to the Canadian Toyota website. TOYOTA CANADA : TOYOTA.CA LANGUAGE . They have been showing '09's for about a month. Mine is definitely an '09 as I have the factory build sheet that they stick on the window. I noticed as well that the U.S site still shows only '08 models. I'm thinking it's because in Canada there were hardly any '08's still on dealers lots.....so maybe they are only building 09's for Canada at this point???
My '09 Platinum in Pyrite with Sand Beige is scheduled to be delivered to my dealer by Jan. 19th. If you went through Toyota Financial Services, would you mind telling me the interest rate you obtained?
Thanks very much!

So, you're saying the plant producing Sequoias in Princeton, IN is up & running now?! How come dealers do not have that advertised in their sites -as for the 2009 models!
I'm not saying any plant is up and running.
The sticker inside the door does say it was manufactured in Indiana.
I am in Canada.
They are selling '09's in Canada.
I have one.
I've had it 9 days.
That's all I know.

Hey Thanks...I did not mean to sound offensive at all..I was ina state of disbelieve ---but in a good way...hoping they are back...so I can get my BIG baby SUV
What color exterior/interior did you go for? Are they more expensive in Canada than down here?

I went with the Pyrite Mica with Red Rock interior. I wanted the Desert Sand Mica but unfortunately that color isn't offered in Canada. The Pyrite is pretty unique and I'm happy with the look of it.
I'm thinking we pay more up here strictly due to the difference in our dollar which is worth 20% less than yours.
Good luck luck with getting your new ride---you won't be disappointed.
Hopefully they release the '09's or '10's soon for you guys.
