Climb way up into the Toyota\u2019s interior and you\u2019ll immediately appreciate its spacious cabin and above-average cargo capacity. Unfortunately, it seems that in an effort to give second row passengers lots of leg room, the driver and front passenger can only scoot back so far, putting tall people at a disadvantage. Also, the interior quality in general falls behind its rivals. Storage compartments are plentiful, but positioned awkwardly and made of cheap plastic. The use of this same cheap plastic isn\u2019t limited to small storage compartments either, but can be found in depressing abundance throughout, and in a sad variety of low-cost textures and finishes. Knobs, door handles and dials have a light, disconnected feel to them as well. It\u2019s a shame that a stronger effort wasn\u2019t made to match the impressive aesthetic of the outside with what we find on the inside. The 2018 model year did update the old, antiquated dashboard with a revised 6.1\u201d High Resolution touchscreen display and new gauge cluster, but they needed to take the improvements much farther.<\/p>\n
While the new Toyota Sequoia remains in need of a serious overhaul, especially on the inside, the new TRD Sport trim adds plenty of visual appeal from without. It\u2019ll comfortably transport seven, boasts plenty of towing prowess and lots of cargo room. A locking center differential, good ground clearance, powerful V8 and capable, multi-mode 4WD system will make easy work of any adventure you want to drag the family along for. Its got a good foundation, begging to be improved upon.<\/p>\n
