2004 toyota sequoia
The Sequoia is a good lorry for huge family members, specifically for those that draw trailers. It supplies three rows of seats efficient in bring 8 passengers. Though huge, it's remarkably manoeuvrable. It's terrific for hauling.
All designs are well equipped, as well as Toyota has actually improved worth for 2004 by including devices without raising the base cost. The less costly SR-5 version adds standard dual-zone front and also back environment control and also power pole positions. The high-trim Sequoia Limited now comes requirement with a power moonroof.
If the space, pulling capacity and also off-road capacity of a truck-based, full-size sport-utility are exactly what you require, the Toyota Sequoia is difficult to defeat.
LINEUP
The Toyota Sequoia can be found in two trim levels: SR5 and Restricted. Both are powered by a 240-horsepower 4.7-liter V8 mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive are offered.
The SR5 ($ 31,625) comes requirement with power windows, mirrors as well as door locks, cruise control, automated dual-zone environment control, power front seats, an AM/FM stereo with both cassette and also CD players, ABS with brake assist, as well as 16-inch styled steel wheels. Four-wheel-drive ($ 3,530) is extra on both versions.
The Limited ($ 40,900) adds natural leather upholstery, warmed seats and also outside mirrors, color-keyed body, premium JBL stereo with 10 speakers, a power slide-and-tilt moonroof, a roofing system shelf as well as 17-inch light weight aluminum wheels.
Both trim lines come standard with a lot of safety equipment. The digital security control system could aid fix a skid when cornering. Traction control maintains the wheels from sliding when accelerating in slippery driving problems. Front airbags are conventional, as are three-point safety belt for all 8 areas. Front side-impact and also head-protection air bags are optional ($ 500).
Toyota enables its consumers a lot more adaptability with optional tools than many producers. The SR-5 can be equipped with most of the Minimal web content in a number of choice packages. These consist of a Preferred Plan ($ 1,770) with the leather as well as costs stereo with a six-disc in-dash changer. An Alloy Wheel Plan ($ 1,835) adds P265/65 R17 tires on 17-inch rims, color-coordinated fender flares and running boards, rear privacy glass, a towing receiver drawback, seven-pin electrical wiring harness converter as well as high-power generator. The Convenience Plan ($ 255) consists of warmed outside mirrors, a journey computer with compass, outside temperature, current and typical gas intake and gas variety functions, and also a HomeLink global transceiver. Stand alone choices for the SR-5 consist of the power tilt/slide moonroof with sunshade ($ 1,000), roofing rack ($ 220), remote keyless entrance ($ 245), trailer plan ($ 380)), the premium stereo with a 6-disc in-dash CD changer ($ 715), rear-seat audio controls ($ 240) and also a rear-seat home entertainment package with a DVD visitor and also the rear audio controls ($ 1,770).
Alternatives for the Limited model are, well, restricted. They include the DVD enjoyment system, rear-seat sound, in-dash CD changer ($ 200), a rear self-leveling suspension ($ 360), as well as a rear spoiler ($ 200).
WALKAROUND
Sequoia's total appearance is tidy, deliberate and, above all, big. The Sequoia takes its styling hints from the Toyota Tundra full-size pick-up. Both are constructed at the very same assembly plant in Princeton, Indiana. Sequoia may be the most conservatively styled full-size SUV available. The back looks more like a minivan than a truck.
Sequoia's front and rear doors are perfectly incorporated and fit proportionally with the rearmost seats and cargo location. They swing open as well as gathered extraordinary agility, but shut with a nice, safe thunk. The home window in the rear liftgate actually rolls down, just like those on the wood-paneled station wagons of the '60s and also '70s. That readies, since this is a big lorry. The liftgate swings so high that it's a long stretch for individuals five-feet tall, even with the hanging assist strap.
Sequoia's overhangs, particularly the front, are short, so the strategy as well as separation angles are good for off-roading. The Minimal version has actually body tinted wheel arches, mirrors as well as molding, instead of black. It's also differentiated by its fog lights, running boards and common alloy wheels. Toyota hasn't taken to the pattern of decking its SUVs with large swathes of black plastic or plastic, as well as in our sight that excels.
INTERIOR
Entering as well as from the Sequoia can be a challenge, especially for smaller youngsters and also Granny. Running boards are readily available as well as are greatly valuable, in addition to the grab deals with placed simply inside the doorframes. Yet you have to be prepared to raise yourself up as well as into this car. A big beast like the Sequoia requires some physical mastery, and that its passengers not be afraid of elevations.
Once in, there's a powerful view from every seat. The big, superb natural leather seats in the Restricted model are incredibly comfortable, and warmed.
Controls adhere to Toyota's traditional, and also convenient, conventional: Lights on the left stalk, wipers on the right. Stereo and also climate-control buttons and also handles are larger than those in many lorries and are clustered in a hull in the facility of the dash. Undoubtedly, the temperature as well as fan dials are the biggest in the Sequoia, and that takes a little obtaining utilized to. Our instinct was to transform the indoor temperature level when we wanted to change the volume. All switches have a gratifying feeling, but we have a couple of nitpicks. The clock is placed as well low in the facility of the dash, as well as obscured from sight by the climate-control buttons. And also not everyone are enamored with the metal-tone trim that embellishes the button collections on the doors and dashboard.
Toyota's focus on information can be seen everywhere inside the Sequoia. The remarkably big container in between the pole positions is divided into two levels. The top level has a fold-out clipboard as well as spring-loaded coin slots. The bottom degree has a molded, bookshelf-like CD owner to maintain to eight CDs from rattling around, yet there suffices room left over to hold a six-pack or a reasonably sized handbag. The door pockets are slim, however there are two open bins at the front of the console, lined with rubber and deep adequate to maintain mobile phone or pocketbooks from gliding around. An above console holds sunglasses. The driver information center includes a compass, outside temperature scale, and gas economy data, such as miles until empty and also mpg.
The three-passenger second-row seat is big, contoured and comfortable. The seat backs recline over a broad array, as well as the back sound and also climate controls on Sequoia's so complete are prominently positioned on the rear of the large facility console, within very easy reach of all 3 second-row seats settings, in addition to those in front. The seat itself splits 60/40 to fold up.
The Sequoia is a champ if you have to move great deals of kids on a regular basis. We claim youngsters due to the fact that they'll have the most energy and also agility to hop over the middle-row to obtain to the third-row seats. Nevertheless, asking full-sized adults to crawl back there isn't likely to cost you a couple of close friends. A bar on the curbside of the 2nd seat releases a spring-loaded device that drops the seatback as well as turns the whole seat forward. It removes a rather broad course to the rear, and the center seat is easy to plunk back when travelers are aboard.
The three-place 3rd row has to do with as good as they get. Legroom is restricted as compared to the second row, yet the seatbacks recline and there's enough headroom. Better, the entire 3rd row likewise slides fore/aft over a range of 8 inches, to readjust for even more legroom or even more storage space behind the seat. With the third seat up and all the means forward, there's space behind for a huge travel suitcase and also a couple of carry-on bags.
For even more cargo room, the third-row seats are easy to roll onward, or they can be eliminated entirely with a little bit a lot more effort. With them toppled, we discovered sufficient room for a jogging baby stroller, an infant backpack and all the remainder of the gear needed for a day walking. For optimal cargo lugging, you can get rid of the third-row seats and fold and tumble the second-row seats. After that there suffices area back there to clear out Toys 'R United States during an inventory-clearance sale.
