    Problem is I don't like the current one.I prefer the one before it.This new one looks a more rugged than the current one.I wish they would go back and make them a little smaller too.

    That's what I was thinking. With Sequoia sales being so poor, I would have thought that Toyota would have taken another direction. Sometimes these vehicles look much better in person... let's hope.

    If the Tacoma's take on that front end persona and abandon the current look which has to happen soon....

    I'm glad I have my 09' A-Cabber!!

    I'll keep the fvcker for 13 years!!

    i dont think poor sales of a Sequoia have anything to do with it being ugly, more like expensive as hell and not the best gas mileage. like all fullsize suv's. id put the blame on poor sales on that along with people living in a recession.

    but yeah, it looks like a smaller Sequoia to me
