I presently have a Gen I Sequoia; but it's getting a bit long in tooth and it's going to have to have the timing belts done soon. I just sunk money into brakes this summer (did it myself, so i'll chalk that up as an 800 dollar learning session of NEVER to buy parts from the local parts store or Summit).
So, I'm toying with possibly getting a used Armada. This won't be a daily but a 6-8x year tow vehicle for the track car and out of state vacations to beach, mountains, etc.
I guess what scares me about the Armada are:
1) Nissan quality
2) Don't hold value...is that due to quality or just because it's Nissan? However, it means nice (< 75k miles) can be had for a decent price.
Toyota quality is known; however, the Gen II Sequoia seems a super ancient design as it came 'round in 2007 vs 2017. That said, the Sequoia Gen I brakes SUCK!!!!!!!! And the transmission is a bit questionable (granted, mine was used and is now getting close to 200k).
Thoughts on the Armada appreciated.
