@ DannyLlama
, did you end up getting a Sequoia? I think once the 2016s come out, we will be getting one also... Family is getting to large for the 4Runner

No sir, the gas millage is horrendous, unless the 2016 comes with a diesel option and the gas millage is significantly better.
We are contemplating the new volvo xc90... Check it out, they really did a good job on the new one.

But isn't the Volvo same size as the 4runner? We would be switching to upgrade the size.... So I don't think the Volvo would work for us. We need a full size SUV

Yes it is roughly the same size, so yea it wouldn't work for you if you want to go bigger. For us, we just need another SUV, so it what makes most sense.
We test drove a Land Cruise, holy mother of SUV's, that thing was like driving your house on wheels, soooooooooooooooooooooo nice. And I'm sure we can get one for similar cost of the new volov.
The only problem is MPG, does anyone know when the next LC model is coming out, diesel?

You complain about MDX issues (minimal and very superficial)...you are now looking at 1st year total redesign with uber modern electronics...aren't they own by the Chinese?
Good luck! You will need it with Volvo XC90.

'01 Runner got a bigger buddy, '15 sequoia Ltd. Of course it's a wholly different vehicle for a wholly different purpose (wife's) yet the interesting part is the fuel efficiency.
The Sequoia beats the Runner by 1/2 an mpg in town and 2 on the highway, haha. Power of course is Incredible by comparison.
Luck and enjoy those Runners.

Hello prizewagon!
I have already the third Prius on this moment. The first was 20ka 2005, mileage not remember, but bought these his already with mileage, with Ussuriysk. The equipment was G (complete). Drove it 1 year. The machine liked.
In 2010 bought 30yy Prius 2009 issuing with mileage 11 thousands of. Cost 630 thousand rubles. Rolled on it 277 thousand km. For the entire period of operation twice changed the stabilizer bushings, twice-brake pads. On the 200th thousand two changed the wheel bearing on the right side. And, of course, oil filter changed every 10 thousand km., in the box-every 45 thousand km. the Car lived in Yamal, was always on the street. The coldest start -56 degrees: without heating boiler started the first time.
