The tow hitch receiver is part of an option package. Ask them to locate a vehicle without it. You can also go to www.buyatoyota.com and "build" your Sequoia. Tell them you want option package "a" or "b" which don't have to tow package. If they look at you like you're from outer space just tell them to go to that site. You will be amazed how many Toyota "salespersons" don't know how to use the site. Good luck and let us know how you do.

Mack,
 
Thank you for the information. For the trucks already on the dealer's lots, is it possible to ask the dealer to remove the tow hitch receiver to save $600 ???
I am not sure if the price is still the same (as the one sitting on lots) if I ask the dealer to locate one without TO package...it become a sort of special order.
Thanks again,
 
Lou

My first suggestion for improvments on the sequoia by ccooke70

Hopefully a dealer will see this and can make the suggestion or offer an add on that will address this.
 
I love my platinum sequoia. However, I have found one issue I would like to report. I wish Toyota would have offered a keychain button that would roll down the back window. I have ran into times where I would have liked to access the back through the window instead of raising the hatch. It would be nice if this was accessible form the key fob buttong. I am going to check with the local car stereo / car mod shop to see if this is something they can make happen.

Although there is no function on the key fob. Try the key itself and turn left and hold it. If nothing happens then turn right and hold it. Make sure all locks are disabled. You can roll down the tailgate window with the key.

Any factory option that's listed on the Monroney sticker cannot be removed from the vehicle. What you may want to do is ask them to take another $1000.00 off the price of the vehicle. They may come back with another $500.00 . Make it so that it offsets the price of the tow pack. And if you ever sell it or trade it you will get more for it. Usually 4wd buyers also tow with their vehicles.

Transmission Noise in 2008 Sequoia by kduah

Does anybody hear a very audible buzzing noise from the transmission area under the vehicle whenever the ignition is turned on (but engine not started). I have 4X4 Limited and it has this noise. If you want to check it, turn the ignition on and listen from under the car. I checked few Sequoias on dealers' lot but they don't have this (sometime) high pitched noise.

You have too much time on your hands.

Mackabee:
I don't get what you mean by "too much time on your hands" The noise is loud such that a friend of mine who wanted to buy a 2008 Sequoia has decided to wait to see what may be wrong with my vehicle. The noise has been verified by two toyota dealerships but they don't know the cause(s) or what to do.

In all likelyhood it is your self leveling suspension activating when you turn your key to the "on" position. The sound can be quite disturbing first time around. Usually you'll get so used to it that you won't even notice it after a month or so.
 
If the Sequoia you listened to didn't make the sound then it probably doesn't have the auto leveling option. Makes me wonder what kind of techs those Toyota dealerships have.
