Here's a towing fuel mileage comparison of a Sequoia gas vs a Suburban diesel.

Enjoy...

BTW... I'll take the Suburban or Tahoe all day long!

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.

Takes a bunch of miles to repay the cost of a diesel at a 2.8 mpg advantage.

X2 “BTW... I'll take the Suburban or Tahoe all day long!” Sequoia looks bad IMO.
