  Big Buck Bang - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By Tbow - July 27 - 10:00 am

  You want more bang for your buck?? Then youd better get a Santa Fe. Im a tall man and need a little more leg room at the drivers seat. Other than that I love my car.Very very reliable. Not one problem after 14 months of driving.

  Pleasant surprise - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By skr3100 - July 21 - 2:00 am

  I have to admit I had my doubts, but this suv has surpassed all expectations. It is a real pleasure driving this vehicle, especially since I traded in my old car and got this suv.

  The best SUV on the market for the money, who needs 4wd, when the frt wheel drive is just as good in snow & ice.

  love my hyundai - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By marla - July 21 - 2:00 am

  i was so excited to get my first new car in 30 years and i couldnt have made a better choice and the price is perfect so many standard features helped me make the decision. I picked arctic blue because everyone has silver and the color is getting old,at least i can find mine in a sea of silver at the mall. i love the stereo system.the ride is smooth not bumpy like my brothers jeep liberty,even he agreed.and wished he had checked into the sante fe before he had puchased his liberty. and thats why i love my hyundai!!!!!!!!

  Eat Your Heart Out Ford Explorers - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By Gary Erskine - July 10 - 10:00 am

  I bought this vehicle for the quality, price, the warranty, and the reputation the company has. I have never been disappointed in any of its features. I had a Ford Exploder before this with the 4.0 SOHC and the Santa Fe will not only run away from it but get gobs better gas mileage while doing it. It handles like a dream in mountain curves and straight aways never wandering or feeling like you were out of control. The Ford product did not give you this same sense of security. I have done nothing but drive the vehicle and have not had ONE single incident where I had to take it to the garage for any repairs. Would buy another in a heartbeat.

  best vehicle i ever bought - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By DANIEL JACKSON - July 4 - 10:00 am

  THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BEST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER BOUGHT. THE V6 ENGINE HAS GREAT POWER AND RUNS VERY QUIET. IT IS ALSO A COMFORTABLE RIDE NOT ONLY IN TRAFFIC BUT ON ROAD TRIPS. FUEL ECONOMY IS NOT THE BEST. I GIVE THIS VEHICLE A VERY HIGH RATING OVERALL.

  Hyundai doesnt mean crappy anymore.... - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By Brian Bolan - July 2 - 11:00 am

  Took a gamble, and bought the Sante Fe, after doing alot of research. I was leery knowing Hyundais past. I was surprised at the level of quality and care in making the product. Granted, the leather seats are... well, cheap looking/feeling. Ive enjoyed a trouble free 120K in daily driving since my purchase in 2005. Cant say one bad thing about it; including my mileage, which has ranged from 21 - 24MPGs. Tooling aroud town, it is considerably less, but still for a SUV, not bad at all. HIGHLY Recommend!

  Love my 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By Lincoln, Nebraska - June 21 - 8:53 am

  For the money, the Santa Fe had the best combination of features, comfort, quality interior materials, and performance of any smaller SUV we test drove. I have had my Santa Fe for about 9 months and have driven it about 12,000 miles so far. It is a joy to drive, hauls children and their gear as well as groceries admirably. The only problem I have had was a large radiator leak at about 5,000 miles and the Hyundai dealership corrected the problem without hassle. The EPA ratings are very accurate, about 17 in the city and 22- 23 on the highway. Bottom line, I am very happy with my Hyundai.

  New 2004 Santa Fe - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
  By Southern Gal - June 9 - 2:00 am

  After doing serious small SUV research,the Santa Fe came out on top! It is well built, solid and fun to drive. The warranty is great as well...Its almost like buying the warranty and getting the SUV for free. We are looking forward to buying another one in 7 years when my oldest son gets his drivers license.
