You can see here the difference between the IRS Expedition (top) and the F-150; the former doesn't have the big kick-up in the frame that the latter does, and actually runs the halfshafts through windows in the frame. |

My 4runner has a solid rear axle and third row that folds flat but the floor is about 6 inches higher then the non-3rd row 4runner.

Yeah, it is an articulation problem. It's not so much the pumpkin as it is the rigid tubes that are attached to it plus the locating links (or leaf springs) in a live-axle configuration. This forces the frame members out towards the wheels and up as compared to an IRS rear end.

I know there is a hybrid version of the Sequoia coming. The non folding flat rear seating may be for the system that runs it?? Not sure though

Batteries for it in the tundra are under the rear bench seat but not sure where they stuck them in the Sequoia so you could be right.
