- Limited, 4WD - sticker price $52090 - deal price $45000 (before tax title tag dealer fee) - No DVD, No nevigation, - 20 inch wheels - sunroof - power back door - cold package - read spoiler - daytime running light - floor mat, cargo mat, door sill protector I took the 0% for 60month instead of the $4000 cash back. The only concern I have is it already has 127 miles on the meter when I bought, not sure why it has such high miles. Is it normal for such high test-driving miles? I test drive it and did not feel any problem, but you know, i am not a mechnical engineer .... While I guess it's already too late to ask this question since I already signed the deal. Big thanks to Mack for the latest incentive. also thanks to HD for the experience on toyota nevigation (the reason why i did not ask for this option).

Replying to: tsfan (May 06, 2008 9:28 am) How long was the vehicle on the lot? It might have been test driven a few times and maybe taken overnight by a prospect. I wouldn't lose sleep over it. My first Camry had 45 miles on it. Mainly because it was a 5 speed and quite a few sales persons test drove it. My Toyota Van LE was fresh off the delivery truck. 1 mile on her. My first Toyota was an 81 Celica and I don't remember what the mileage was on that one. I was 22 years old and that new car smell just got to me. Congratulations and enjoy your new Sequoia.! You will get many years of trouble free driving pleasure. Mack

Replying to: mackabee (May 06, 2008 9:31 pm) Another not sure thing is about the engine sound, I hear the engine becomes quite noisy when running around 45-50 MPH, giving me a kind of feeling that it's working overly hard to get up the speed. Never drive a V8 truck engine before, not sure whether it's normal.

Replying to: ratomlinson (May 04, 2008 5:26 pm) I'm working on a deal for a 2wd limited but in the back of my mind really want a platinum. Most dealers will email a quote in the same range (around 45500 for a 49000 msrp limited). How much more room is there without the 2000 or 4000 rebate (I'd like to take advantage of the 0 percent)? Also, tomlinson, how did you arrange 0 percent on a platinum? Do the dealers have authority to do that?

Replying to: mackabee (May 07, 2008 6:10 pm) Then I had a Toyota engineer test drive. He said everything is normal, the engine sound and RPM changes are because of the 6-speed transimission. He also think the computer is programmed to coordinate the V8 engine with the 6-speed transimisson. I am going to first enjoy the riding first though I don't quite understand the engineer's comments.

Hi, Tonight I was pushing the limits of my fuel mileage. I was on my way home and can get gas quite a bit cheaper near my house. I cross the border to South Carolina, and gas goes down .15 - 20 a gallon. I was also interested in the XX miles to empty readout I get in the Sequoia. I was trying to see if it would get to a point where it would give a warning just before you are about to actually run out. I drove mine for 3 - 5 miles while the readout was reading 0 Miles to empty. Does anyone know what the buffer is ? Is there an additional warning when you actually get very close to running out? (Other than the one when you hit 20 miles to empty. ) Just curious. I don't normally run it that close. I was jst interested to see if it would give an eventual beep or warning. I got to the gas station before it did and was able to put 22 Gallons in it. It must have been close. Any details appreciated.
