I have a 97 4runner that I purchased off a fellow member about 6 years ago. It has done everything I want it to, except grow with my family :)

It will still stay in the driveway, but I recently purchased an 02 Sequoia as well. I cannot believe I didn't do this sooner. I had pondered over suburban, landcruisers (mainly the 100 series), gx470s, and other rigs as well.

As soon as I drove a few sequoias I was sold. The room was unbelievable. yet the wheelbase is a foot shorter than a suburban. I found the 3rd row and cargo areas much more friendly than that of the 100s.
We just got back from a business trip and put about 900 miles on the new rig. She averaged 17.8 mpg with 4 people and all the necessities for a week at a hotel. Thats with 202k miles to boot. I don't even get that mileage on my 4runner.
And the power is amazing!
