From Ep. 4.16![]() |

Appears to be a base equipped Limited, not a well equipped Limited. |

I don't know if there is a difference in the Limited edition of the Toyota Sequioa? I think the most expensive or top of the line Sequoia is the Platinum Edition. Since this vehicle pictured above is Agent Booth's (David Boreanaz) FBI issue SUV it would make since it would be the base line edition. In previous seasons he and Bones (Emily Deschanel) used Chevrolet Tahoe SUV's. |

Its not a Platinum, and not a base SR5, it’s a mid range Limited for sure. |
◊ 2009-10-14 04:15 |
It wouldn't be a Platinum because I doubt the FBI would supposedly purchase the most expensive model for operatives to use. I forgot about the SR5. But I agree, this looks like the Limited edition. |

First of all, there is no need to quote the comment that is directly above yours. And secondly, this is only a TV show depicting fictional FBI agents. They can use whatever they want as long as a sponser hands over some free cars or money. -- Last edit: 2009-10-14 04:20:21 |

First of all I was referring back to the comment above mine so I chose to quote it. If that bothers you...don't read it. ;-) Also, even though this is a fictional show (don't remember stating otherwise) most shows now days usually try to use realistic aspects for them...including vehicles. Besides, what does it really matter? Some of us just enjoy discussing and trying to find out the smaller details with cars in shows. If this annoys or bothers you...again, you don't have to read it. Perhaps you are "ticked" because none of these SUV's are Fords??;-) |

Yes, and that's exactly why it's unecessary to quote it. It's obvious who you're replying back to and doing so takes up space. It's a bit of an unwritten rule here and I was just giving you some friendly advice. But for some reason you think I'm extremely bothered by it ![]() The way you worded your statement, it made it sound like this probably had to be a base model becaue that's what the FBI would most likely use. And as for realistic aspects, yeah...right. Most of the FBI Suburbans (for example) I see on TV are trim models that the FBI doesn't use. And are you kidding me? I never implied discussions couldn't be had. I just found your argument to not be very solid. By mentioning the fact that Toyota probably sponsored it, as they did with 24 and Prison Break, I'm contributing to the discussion. Toyota would probaly want to show off their higher-end models off. You somehow assumed I was bothered when in reality I was trying to be friendly, or at least informative. -- Last edit: 2009-10-14 04:53:04 |

TV shows and movies are accurate when it comes to cars? ![]() According to this movie you could get a Chevrolet Lumina in 1973 /vehicle_182657-Chevrolet-Lumina-1995.html -- Last edit: 2009-10-14 04:52:29 |

We as admin ask that you and other uses not quote comments that are directly above yours as its not necessary unless you explicitly need to address something specific. Just talking or discussing does not merit such behavior. |
◊ 2009-10-14 05:07 |
Uuhh...I did not say all TV shows (and I did not mention movies) are accurate with all cars. I just simply said that many times with TV shows now days they try to be as accurate as they can with some things. If I "made your day"...great! Don't know anything about a Chevy Lumina in 1973?? Most crime shows on today do not take place in the past (except for CBS's "Cold Case" which continually refers back to past years). |

I think you're taking this the wrong way. He's just giving you a hard time ![]() |

I'm sorry if quoting the comment right above mine is supposedly "against the rules." I just like to let readers know which comment I'm referring back to. When you begin a comment with "First of all..." it does not sound "friendly." When you immediatly started to make fun of the fact that I was discussing aspects of the show about FBI issued vehicles, that too did not come off friendly. It sounds like you are annoyed, irritated, or just trying to be "jerky." I know many aspects of shows are not realistic. But sometimes they try to be somewhat realistic. They might use a top of the line model of a car, but sometimes not. It just depends on what the automotive company sponsors and/or loans them to use. This was not meant to be a big huge deal by just discussing a model of a SUV used on a TV show. |

I was not making fun of you...I simply didn't agree with what you said. You're assuming things. And sorry if I didn't sound friendly, I wasn't trying to come off as a jerk. And as we said before, the issue of quoting comments above yours is an issue dealing with space on the site. Even though it might look neater or whatnot, it doesn't change the fact that its something we try not to do here. So please, try to avoid it. |

It was how you were "disagreeing" with me that made it sound like you were making fun of it. Like I said, I did not state that as absolute fact all TV shows are realistic with every vehicle aspect. I just meant that sometimes they try to be as accurate as they can. I've seen documentaries and shows on real-life FBI agents and/or profilers (such as on TruTV--used to be CourtTV) where they use fancy trim models of Chrysler 300's and SUV's. Maybe they're the only ones...who knows? ![]() I will try to remember to not quote the comment directly above mine if that helps save space. -- Last edit: 2009-10-28 07:01:59 |

Indeed, usually the variety of cars they use is endless. But it depends on what their task is. I bet they use the most trivial of cars at times ![]() |
◊ 2009-10-14 05:53 |
I'm sure they do. I bet sometimes they even get stuck with some ugly compact. ![]() -- Last edit: 2009-10-14 05:54:35 |
