2010 Sequoia SR5 with the 5.7L engine, 2WD and Tow Package. Pulling a Puma 23FB with a ProPride WDH.
Just returned from my first trip. 16,000 miles total/12,000 miles towing. From Myrtle Beach, out through Yellowstone, up to Alaska and back. Towed great! Plenty of power. Averaged 10 mpg.
I prefer the SUV to the Thundra because of the ride and inside storage.
FWIW, I bought the Sequoia used. Had budgeted about $30k for a 2008 and found the 2010 with 88,000 miles for $22k. I used Cars.com and found the SUV in Columbia, SC. I drove to Columbia and being single, anticipated renting a U-Haul dolly to tow my auto back to MB. Dealer needed to pickup a vehicle in MB and had his driver deliver the Sequoia to me for no charge. Worked out for everyone.
