2004 toyota sequoia
The Sequoia is a good lorry for big families, especially for those who draw trailers. It offers three rows of seats capable of carrying eight guests. Though huge, it's surprisingly manoeuvrable. It's terrific for towing.
All designs are well geared up, and Toyota has boosted value for 2004 by including equipment without raising the base rate. The less expensive SR-5 model includes conventional dual-zone front as well as back environment control as well as power pole positions. The high-trim Sequoia Limited currently comes requirement with a power moonroof.
If the room, pulling capability and also off-road ability of a truck-based, full-size sport-utility are exactly what you require, the Toyota Sequoia is difficult to beat.
SCHEDULE
The Toyota Sequoia is available in two trim degrees: SR5 and also Minimal. 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 criterion with power windows, mirrors and also door locks, cruise ship control, automated dual-zone environment control, power pole position, an AM/FM stereo with both cassette and CD players, ABDOMINAL MUSCLE with brake help, and also 16-inch styled steel wheels. Four-wheel-drive ($ 3,530) is additional on both designs.
The Limited ($ 40,900) adds leather furniture, heated seats and outdoors mirrors, color-keyed body, costs JBL stereo with 10 audio speakers, a power slide-and-tilt moonroof, a roof covering shelf and 17-inch light weight aluminum wheels.
Both trim lines come conventional with a lot of safety equipment. The electronic security control system could assist fix a skid when cornering. Traction control keeps the wheels from slipping when increasing in slippery driving conditions. Front air bags are typical, as are three-point seat belts for all eight locations. Front side-impact as well as head-protection air bags are optional ($ 500).
Toyota permits its clients more flexibility with optional tools compared to lots of manufacturers. The SR-5 can be furnished with a lot of the Limited material in several choice packages. These consist of a Preferred Plan ($ 1,770) with the natural leather and costs stereo with a six-disc in-dash changer. An Alloy Wheel Bundle ($ 1,835) adds P265/65 R17 tires on 17-inch edges, color-coordinated fender flares and also running boards, back privacy glass, a towing receiver hitch, seven-pin wiring harness converter and high-power alternator. The Convenience Bundle ($ 255) consists of warmed outside mirrors, a journey computer system with compass, outside temperature, existing and also average gas usage and gas array features, as well as a HomeLink universal transceiver. Stand alone choices for the SR-5 consist of the power tilt/slide moonroof with sunshade ($ 1,000), roof covering shelf ($ 220), remote keyless entrance ($ 245), trailer package ($ 380)), the premium stereo with a 6-disc in-dash CD changer ($ 715), rear-seat audio controls ($ 240) and a rear-seat enjoyment package with a DVD customer and the rear sound controls ($ 1,770).
Choices for the Restricted version are, well, restricted. They include the DVD entertainment system, rear-seat audio, in-dash CD changer ($ 200), a rear self-leveling suspension ($ 360), and also a back looter ($ 200).
WALKAROUND
Sequoia's overall look is clean, deliberate and also, most of all, large. The Sequoia takes its designing cues from the Toyota Expanse full-size pick-up. Both are built at the same assembly plant in Princeton, Indiana. Sequoia could be one of the most conservatively styled full-size SUV available. The back looks even more like a minivan than a truck.
Sequoia's front as well as back doors are well integrated and fit proportionally with the rearmost seats and also freight location. They swing open as well as closed with exceptional lightness, yet closed with a great, protected thunk. The home window in the rear liftgate actually rolls down, much like those on the wood-paneled station wagons of the '60s and '70s. That excels, because this is a huge vehicle. The liftgate swings so high that it's a long stretch for individuals five-feet tall, despite having the hanging help band.
Sequoia's overhangs, especially the front, are short, so the method as well as departure angles benefit off-roading. The Minimal version has actually body tinted wheel arches, mirrors and also molding, as opposed to black. It's additionally distinguished by its haze lights, running boards as well as basic alloy wheels. Toyota hasn't required to the pattern of decking its SUVs with huge swathes of black vinyl or plastic, and also in our sight that readies.
INTERIOR
Getting in and also from the Sequoia can be an obstacle, specifically for smaller sized children and Granny. Running boards are readily available and are exceptionally valuable, along with the grab deals with installed just inside the doorframes. But you must be prepared to raise on your own up and right into this lorry. A big monster like the Sequoia requires some physical mastery, which its passengers not hesitate of heights.
Once in, there's a commanding sight from every seat. The large, superb leather seats in the Limited version are incredibly comfy, and heated up.
Controls follow Toyota's classic, and also convenient, basic: Lights on the left stalk, wipers on the right. Stereo and climate-control switches as well as knobs are larger than those in the majority of lorries as well as are gathered in a capsule in the center of the dashboard. Without a doubt, the temperature level and also follower dials are the largest in the Sequoia, which takes a little getting utilized to. Our reaction was to transform the indoor temperature when we intended to readjust the volume. All switches have a satisfying feeling, yet we have a number of nitpicks. The clock is mounted also reduced in the center of the dashboard, and obscured from view by the climate-control buttons. As well as not all of us are captivated with the metal-tone trim that adorns the button clusters on the doors as well as dashboard.
Toyota's attention to detail can be seen everywhere inside the Sequoia. The terrifically huge bin in between the pole positions is divided into 2 levels. The leading degree has a fold-out clipboard and also spring-loaded coin ports. The bottom degree has a shaped, bookshelf-like CD holder to keep up to 8 CDs from rattling about, however there suffices room left over to hold a six-pack or a reasonably sized purse. The door pockets are narrow, but there are two open containers at the front of the console, lined with rubber as well as deep adequate to maintain cellular phone or purses from sliding around. An above console holds sunglasses. The driver information center consists of a compass, outside temperature gauge, as well as fuel economic situation data, such as miles up until vacant and mpg.
The three-passenger second-row seat allows, contoured and also comfortable. The seat backs recline over a wide variety, and also the back audio and climate controls on Sequoia's so complete are plainly positioned on the back of the big center console, within very easy reach of all 3 second-row seats settings, in addition to those ahead. The seat itself divides 60/40 to fold.
The Sequoia is a champ if you need to transfer lots of children often. We state children due to the fact that they'll have one of the most energy and also dexterity to jump over the middle-row to obtain to the third-row seats. However, asking full-sized grownups to crawl back there isn't really likely to cost you a few close friends. A bar on the curbside of the second seat launches a spring-loaded system that drops the seatback as well as turns the entire seat ahead. It gets rid of a relatively wide course to the rear, and also the middle seat is very easy to plunk back as soon as guests are aboard.
The three-place third row is about like they get. Legroom is limited compared with the 2nd row, however the seatbacks recline and there's sufficient headroom. Better, the whole third row additionally slides fore/aft over a series of eight inches, to adjust for even more legroom or even more storage space behind the seat. With the third seat up and all the means forward, there's room behind for a large suitcase and a number of carry-on bags.
For more cargo room, the third-row seats are simple to topple ahead, or they can be removed entirely with a little bit extra initiative. With them rolled, we located enough area for a jogging stroller, a child knapsack and all the remainder of the equipment required for a day walking. For maximum cargo lugging, you can remove the third-row seats and also fold and tumble the second-row seats. After that there suffices area back there to clean Toys 'R United States during an inventory-clearance sale.
