Hi Everyone,
I'm in the market for a Sequoia and I test drove a platinum and a limited today. I barely noticed a difference in suspension between the two. In corners though, the platinum did feel a little flatter. Does anyone what the default suspension setting is for the Limited?
Thanks!

I tow a 6500 lbs trailer, and the automatic suspension makes a world of difference

I use comfort in the city, sport on the highway and when towing. Makes a noticeable difference. Doesn't make the platy chuckable, but noticeable. The levelling sure is nice. But I wouldn't let that be the deal breaker in deciding between the two!

Is that an out door kitchen in the back there? We've had our 35'er for just over a year / 80 nights and sure met a bunch of people that way!

The platinum has TEMS and self leveling rear air suspension standard. They are both a very rare option on a limited. TEMS is toyota electronic modulated suspension, same system as used back in the 80s on the supra. There is a knob that adjusts the dampening on the shocks to make them stiffer or softer. The air suspension in the rear will keep the rear end up while loaded. It shouldn't make too much of a difference on performance though (I haven't driven one without it so I can't give a full input on the difference)
