New Sequoia Owner - 2003 Toyota Sequoia
By AWANG - January 3 - 2:00 amThis is a bargain if comparing to Lexus LX470. Toyota makes a full-size SUV closer to affortable with Sequoia. The engin is smooth and quiet, cabin is spacious. Other than poor fuel economics, I have no complain.

A good car but less than I expected - 2003 Toyota Sequoia
By M - July 23 - 5:53 amOverall the sequoia has been reliable and comfortable for long trips. But its not the Toyota quality Ive come to expect. Not just the car but also the dealer service. I bought without looking at other suvs - mistake. Quality issues: - glass breakage sensor has never worked - gear indicator lights (D, N) burned out - rear window has been fixed 2 times - rear door handle broke on a ski trip, making it impossible to open the hatch - OEM tires were awful - causing the car to feel misaligned. Toyota denied issues. Dealer finally admitted others had the same issue. Fixed with a set of duelers. - within the 1st year driver window started sounding like it was going to fall out.

Best SUV in its class - 2003 Toyota Sequoia
By JL012860 - July 17 - 2:00 amI love my new Sequoia! Its so quiet and smooth; nice acceleration; doesnt feel like a truck like some SUVs; very small radius of turn for making tight U- ies; did I mention it was very quiet. Sucks up a lot of gas....compare to my Honda Accord. Very happy I with my choice...as long as gas price stays below $2.

Does it get any better for the money? - 2003 Toyota Sequoia
By quickfix - July 5 - 10:00 amAfter 10 years of Tahoes and Suburbans this is a breath of fresh air. I get lots of compliments from friends and strangers on the good looks. With one year and 42K miles it hasent missed a beat. The original tires,Dunlop Grand Trek, are worthless. A set of Bridgestone Revos cant be beat.

Still in good shape!! - 2003 Toyota Sequoia
By Lori Atkins - April 22 - 8:10 pmWell, its true what they say... You get bored with a Toyota before you HAVE to buy one. This car is running great, with routine care. Just changed the serpentine belt, brakes ( sadly more often than Id like, as this is supposedly a heavy vehicle ) tuned up, and it is ready to go another who knows how many miles. Headlights are frustratingly dim, despite bringing in to the dealer. That is probably the worst thing I could say! It is AMAZING in the Connecticut winters, runs smooth, I dont even worry about reliability. Hauling kids, boats, dogs, this Sequoia handles everything. Almost afraid to think about another car maker. Wouldnt hesitate buying a higher mileage Sequoia!
