Oh I do. Capstone is one of the best looking on the road IMO. Appearance wise it looks as sharp as a Denali 1500 to me..

The build quality etc that's been so lambasted was very surprising to me, bummer.

Saw a few Tundras today when getting service





They don’t look that bad. Some though comment and criticize the low forehead where the windshield meets the roof

Not the rousing endorsement I want when spending $60K+ on a pickup!

I really like the looks of them. This and the RAM are probably my too favorite trucks, style-wise.

Personally I think they are quite hideous, But then again I like the BMW i7 and everyone but me thinks that’s hideous, so what do I know. The Dodge and GM trucks look much better.

Ford keeps redesigning the F-150 every 2 years, it swings from ugly to handsome back to ugly again, right now it’s kinda awkward looking.

The grille is too big and it has a serious underbite issue going on.

The new sequoia in person doesn't look that good, very front heavy and over styled in the nosecone. For me at least it seems more like a 4runner in person due to the style choices, doesn't have nearly the visual weight and presence of a GM suv or Grand Wagoneer or even my 2nd gen when parked side by side.

It's honestly just a disappointment and now that ram has their new PROPER TT6 out there is no contest at all.

I just think it looks childish for a 60-90k truck, it has a very "here and now" style that will look dated as hell shortly.

I LOVE the looks of the new Sequoia. It has a more toned down look to the front than the Tundra does.

@AJT123 @JDR76 Hey do NOT test drive the new V6 twin turbo Tundra. I repeat do NOT test drive it. I have my race trailer loaded and hooked up to a non hybrid 2024 1794 and it pulls effortlessly. At my towing speed (iykyk) I’m averaging 7.8mpg. I’m averaging around 225 miles per tank towing (32 gallons) and I don’t stop for fuel until the DTE is zero. I can pump around 29 gallons. Low fuel light comes on around 12-13 DTE. I wished for the hybrid twin turbo as it has 104 more torque & 39hp more. I bet it tows like a freight train!! Aside from that I don’t care too much on I’m guessing is pipped in sound unless that’s the engine. Doesn’t sound as good as the V8. When you initially get on the throttle you hear the turbos then it’s drowned out by engine sound/fake pipped in sound. Minus that. It pulls!!

If you test drive it, you may end up liking it enough to buy one.
