I guess I will just need to put a few more miles on the SR5. It is now getting 12. This is an improvement over the 10.4 that we started with.

A national news magazine is looking to interview consumers who have recently (within the past three months) purchased a large SUV and would like to talk about your decision to purchase that car. Please send an e-mail to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Wednesday, November 8, 2006 by 2:00 PM PST/5:00 EST containing your daytime contact information.

Anyone having problems with their interior door handles, breaking off. I had 3 of the 4 completely break off. Bought it brand new in 02 with extended warranty, it will not cover the repair.

First, throw away the air filter and replace it with one from K&N.
 
next, change to synthetic oil.
 
Good luck.

milage by petro33

jerrydock, great milage. I have a '01 with 133,000 miles, run mobil 1 synthetic since about 30K miles. The best milage i ever got was about 18 on a cross country trip a few years ago. I drive it around town (90% city, 10% highway) and get about 12-14 mpg.I tried the K&N filter but it had no significant impact on gas milage. I guess every car is different. The greatest impact on milage was when I pumped the tires up to close to the max. It made a difference but the ride was very rough. Dropped down to a lower lever and works OK but I guess i'll have to live with the milage.
 
I will be trading it in for the new '08s when they come out. I want to tow a bigger trailer so I am looking for the bigger engine and the 10,000 towing capacity.

4X4 limited loaded by gagrice

After many years of disdain for Toyota we have taken the plunge. We bought a 2007 limited 4WD with the luxury package. Has NAV, 2nd row captains seats and DVD entertainment. This beauty listed at $51,684. The dealer knocked 10 big ones off the price. High gas prices have people spooked. The dealer said they are discounting big time to get rid of their big SUVs and Trucks. I do like the ride and NAV so far. We shall see. Now if I can afford the gas for a vacation

I am having the same problem. My wife's vehicle. The passenger side broke off. I am trying to find instructions on how to replace it.

You will love it. I do have some suggestions.
First, switch to synthetic oil. I use Amzoil and it increased mileage by 2 MPG.
I also run a K&N air cleaner.
When the tires go, switch to the new Goodyear Triplex. Awesome handling.
I am averaging 20 MPG and I am a fast driver; but don't expect this until you have passed 12,000 miles.

Interior Lights by mander1

I recently bought a 2002 Sequoia SR5 with a sunroof when you open the doors, the lights over the rear seats turn on but the two map lights over the front seats do not, it is very dark and seems that they should. The dealer tells me that the front lights are not supposed to come on with the doors, but I had a 2005 tundra that did. Can anyone tell me if is just the way they made these and corrected in later years?
 
Thanks
