Of course it "flows". A UFO also "flows", but that doesnt mean it looks good.

Lmao, that's the best you could come up with? Honestly?

I would sure love to see even ONE example of anything having anything at all to do with Miami Vice moron. My truck sure must have been poorly styled considering Ford created an entire model 90% identical to it

I guess I shouldn't be surprised from a leg humping poser named "wantsahemi>"

Want a mullet with your hemi, tool?

You're such a joke of an existence that you spend your time trolling a forum for a truck you don't even have... how freaking pathetic can one be? Get a life buddy.

I like it.

Toyota makes one mean SUV.
Toyota makes one mean SUV based on the fact that ONE of their SUVs has big numbers?

How about the last Sequoia that was so under powered it was a health hazard for the last 5~ years? Was that one "mean" too?

This is smart design.

Don't flame. Everybody knows the driver will be the man, and the woman will just reach across to get to the controls. Why not put them over there so she'll leave him alone and let him drive? She'll still tell him that he should have turned back there though...unless you opt for the GPS option!

I think you should change you're name to WANTSAYODA or WANTSATUNDRA, flows well? The only thing that flows well is the air flowing through you're head. Sorry buddy, I'm just breaking you're *****, but really, I think you should get a room with Toyota. Another thing is why does it not have matching bumpers? Why does it have 2 completely different handles on the fronts to the rears? Alot looks like a cheap after thaught such as the all of a sudden leaning rear section of cab. And finally, the design makes the wheels look waaaaaayyyyyy to small. You'd need 24's on this pile to look proportioned even a bit. As it sits, looks like a 500 lbs dyke laying ***** up on a skate board. Just my thaughts!

Yeah, but look at the houses behind that truck...

That tells me the owner could probably drive just about anything they wish...

Or their parents can... (There's a lot of kids on this site.)
-----------------------------

Anyhoo, I thought the 2007 Sequoia was nice. Just before I got my Edge, I was considering:
  • 2007 Toyota Sequoia
  • 2007 Ford Expedition
  • 2007 Ford Expedition EL
  • 2007 Edge SEL
  • 2007 Nissan Armada

2007 Toyota Sequoia:
I don't think it (Sequoia) was underpowered. No more than my heavy, 4.6L V8, 229 HP, 2000, or than my 2003 5.4L 260 HP Expedition(s) were. Today, they all have 300 HP, and the 4.6L is (at least I was told) no longer available.

I went by Toyota of Richardson to look at the Sequoia.
They only had one on the lot, and when I got there, it had "SOLD" on the window. In fact, I arrived at the dealership at about 8:45 PM. The new owners pulled in next to me in their BMW 745, at about 8:45:15, and the wife hopped out before he'd even parked good, and ran inside. I hadn't even gotten out of my truck yet. I guess she realy wanted her truck!

They'd tinted the windows for her, and it was nice & clean. Sweet truck.

They didn't have any more Sequoia's in, didn't know when they were getting any in, in fact, the sales guy recommended I "hold out" until the 2008 dropped, because he knew it was gonna be a bad ****; but could dealer-locate a 2007 for me, if I really wanted one. I didn't know the Highlander was out, they brought me in, showed it to me, but- all the new Highlanders on the lot, and enroute- including the cloth seated model I sat in, was accounted for already.
---------------------------

2007 Expedition:
Went to North Central Ford to look at the 2007 Expedition & EL. I liked it, but deep down inside, I didn't want to buy another Expedition. The only thing obviously different to me from the 2003 I'd traded in 2006, was: New grill, floor shifter, new taillights. Park them side by side, and they would cast an identical shadow on the ground. Not only that, but They weren't in a negotiating mood either. The last two I bought, I got $9,000 off MSRP, and $13,000 off MSRP respectively (2000 & 2003). They only wanted to take off maybe $5,000. So, finanace near $50,000 (After NE, TT&L) and drive a truck almost identical to the one I traded about 2 years earlier? Pass.
---------------------------

Nissan Titan: I'd just missed the 8K MSRP reduction on it. Looked at one, loaded, siler w/Navigation. Had them down to about $680/month. Thought about it.
---------------------------
2007 Ford Edge SEL Plus:
Test drove the 2007 Edge at Middlekauf Ford: Loved it. I was impressed with the pep, and it was hard to believe the truck I was in, was a Ford. I mean, the 2006 F-150 we have is nice, but this thing is a few notches nicer, in my opinion.

Similar in size to my MDX, great lease rates, great residual, powerful, yet fuel efficient V6. Smooth, quiet... I was (and still am) in love.

SOLD.
----------------------

Reflecting back to August 2007, if Toyota of Richardson had a Sequoia Limited on the lot that night, in Silver or Black, and had been willing to do some wheeling & dealing. I'd probably have that in my garage right now. It's a good looking truck (to me) and woudl be even more fly with a set of 20's on it, and dark tint.

I'm happy with the Edge though... I'm just mad there are no bodyside molding, or running boards for it. Got a nice ding in it already...

Thanks Ford!

I like the new tundra, I hope it forces Ford to step up their F150. I think the new Superdutys are ugly as sin on the outside. I really dont like where the new fords are going visually... Love how the 04-08 F150s look, and the 05 Superdutys but the new body style is ick.

So having money means you know how to spend it wisely? I've seen plenty of tools in riced out Corvettes, BMWs, and Mercedes Benz cars to perscribe to that logic. Lol... sorry, but I fail to see the point you are trying to make.
