    So far no one has mentioned if this truck has more head room than the old one. I'm 6'5" and feel like I have to duck to drive my current Tundra. The seat doesn't go down far enough.
    Anyone?

    Do you have a sunroof? Way more headroom if you forgo that option. I will make an assumption this will still be an issue with the 3rd gen.

    I’m 6’5 and have plenty of room. Maybe a 3 inch lift and move the steering wheel up with the seat tilted back.

    6'3 here with no issues... Step bars or those automatic step ramp thingy will help. Good luck

    First thing I noticed when I bought my 20 was how high the seating position was, felt like I was siting on top of the hood! I was coming from a 16 F-150 which had a much lower seating position. From what Ive seen I think the front head room is similar to the 21 but in the rear it looks to be less. There is a spec sheet floating around here that shows the actual dimensions of the 22.

    The only interior dimension to increase is headroom in the front row. Slight gains in 2022 over 2021 for both DC and CM, with or without moon/panoramic roof.

    With the CM, a 1 inch gain in headroom with the panoramic roof over last gen's moonroof is welcomed, especially as it is standard on Platinum, 1794 and TRD Pro and optional on Limited.

    I really hope the next Sequoia will have similar headroom to the new Tundra as I don't fit in the current one.

    I know their price point is out of proportion to their apparent value; but I was researching seat comfort and found a lot of posts from taller folks touting seat jackers.

    If you're industrious and have tools you could make your own. I'm about 85% happy with the seats, and only 6' tall, so they're not high on the list; but they're on it.

    I think the big issues from what I’ve seen is the rear head room, especially with the Pano at only 36.9”. Most reviewers have mentioned this as well. The gain in the front is welcomed for sure though.

    also, how raked that A pillar is. now I have to bend down to get in my tundra since the A pillar is so raked.

    time will tell on the new 2022 if this is improved or not. the back seat with less headroom, legroom, etc will be tighter for sure
