You're my age.  We're getting old.  Plus, now that you're married, your life expectancy has gone way down, since you're more likely to be poisoned by your wife.

We'll see a new Sequoia and most likely a Lexus derivative.  The 5.7L will be a good match for this truck.  I'm hoping they keep the solid axle in the back.  Someone on AW created a rendering based on the new Tundra but I can't find it.

I hope it has an independent rear suspension.

Why? <_< In a suv application a solid axle offers more strength for towing and a well designed one effect the handling negatively (see Durango).

Hasn't this solid axle vs. IRS discussion taken place somewhere already?

Indeed it has, and it started the exact same way.

That disappoints me so.

Just to piss Catman off.  

You think I actually care what kind of rear suspension it has?  It could be solid axle, chocolate axle, no axle--I wasn't going to buy one anyway.
