2005 Toyota Sequoia SR5

The Sequoia is Toyota's full-size SUV, built to haul up to eight people with room to spare. It rides high and smooth, soaking up highway miles easily, though its size makes tight parking spots a bit of a workout. Inside, you get a spacious cabin with a third row that folds flat, plus handy features like rear climate controls and a power rear window. Owners report that these trucks run strong well past 200,000 miles, with common issues like cracked leather and finicky rear window motors. The SR5 is the straightforward choice for buyers who want the Sequoia's size and V8 power without the Limited's leather and wood trim. Its 4.7L V8 makes 273 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque, paired with a five-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive, so it pulls strongly on the highway but returns 15 mpg combined.
