Hey everyone!! Just introducing myself. Purchased a 05 Sequoia SR5 with 110K miles, JBL audio, running boards,and Graphite 17in split 5 spoke wheels for the family about a week ago and I love it, but I can already see some things I want to tinker with so maybe you guys will be able to point me in the right direction. First on my list is the rear hatch spoiler that I wish mine came with. I have found some ebay for as little at $104 painted and shipped, but I am not sure of the quality. Second on my list has to be upgrading the brakes and sway bar bushings. I was thinking about at least SS braided lines and EBC pads possibly larger rotors if at all possible. As far as the sway bar bushings I will take some measurements on the sway bars and contact Energy Suspension for the bushings. Third on my list will probably be K&N intake system or a different brand if some knows of one that performs better. Other than that I am very happy with the vehicle and can't wait to get some more driving time when the wife isnt driving it. Any oinput or ideas would be great.

Thanks

Oh yeah some recommendations for a flip down DVD system for the rear would be great too.

Hello.... looking at purchasing a Sequoia and was hoping both of you (PoPo and 056Sequoia) wouldn't mind sharing with me what price you paid with what options and mileage.

Thanks!

Mine was an '04 SR5 (power everything, moon roof, non-JBL, cloth) with roughly 124k miles... paid $9000 for it. It was a local (50 miles) sale from a private party, so I'm sure I would have paid more from a stealership, probably closer to $11,500+
