The most useless “comparison” I have ever seen considering there is nothing comparable. Even though the Sequoia is a 2021 model it came out in 2007 and other than some cosmetic updates it has not changed since. The 5.7l is bulletproof but has always been thirsty, especially when still mated to a 6 speed and 4.30 gears. Pitting it against a brand new diesel with a 10 speed proves nothing. Not even apples to oranges. Diesel will always get better mileage than gas when towing as will new versus old technology.
So if GM dug out a tbi 350 from the warehouse, dusted off a power glide, shoved it into the new Burb, all of a sudden they're comparable?
Just because Toyota chose not to innovate, it doesn't make the comparison unfair.
Likewise, if the GM does break down more often, can we say "you can't compare the reliability, apples vs oranges"? If we compare reliability on equal grounds, then we compare performance / mpg on equal grounds too.
