    MY first experience with a Hyundai product was a 1986 Excel. Just started searching for a new vechicle and found the Tucson. WOW, I fell in love with it the moment I spotted it on the lot. Test drove it and was hook - had to have it. All the instrumentation was easy to find and read. Controls were easyily accessible. I was new to the SUV type vechicle and I felt at home behind the wheel.

  • Awesome SUV - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I had the Tucson 4WD V6 for about a month now. It is currently the best value for an SUV. I tested the ESP system in the snow and its almost impossible to make the vehicle slide or to lose control. The V6 offers a good amount of power but a little more would be nice. The back seats are very roomy. Im 61 and I can sit there without any problem. Engines around 2800 RPM at 100 km/h (62 mph) so its very quiet. SportShift works really well and its a nice feature, I cant live without it now ! Radio can play MP3 ! More powerful and quieter than RAV4 and CR-V. Cheaper than Ford Escape for a lot more features. Thats a deal !

    This vehicle is fun to drive. Although youre high above the ground it feels like youre driving a car. Nice design and cheaper than all its competitors...more for the buck!!

  • Tucson it will grow on you - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON

    I bought this suv under the thought of dependability,and not soly on it`s looks.I did not want a large payment and felt this vehecle offered a lot of safety with the six air bags standard.But know that Ive owned it for a short while I like the looks and love driving it. I drove the tucson in nasty weather and it handled great.This vehicle that i bought was a gls v-6 4wd .My only regret is that i should of shoped a little more for a better price.The dealership had only two at the time I purchased it.

  • My 2005 Tucson - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON

    From the actual purchase experience to taking the vehicle home and owning it for a few days has been extremely satisfying. The dealer was upfront about everything and gave me a really great deal considering its a new model. It drives great, feels much more expensive than it is. (I can say that my opinion is educated considering my previous car I traded-in was a late model Toyota Camry.) When you go down the very long list of standard features, you see just how much of a superb value this SUV is compared to the others SUVs. I was particularly dissapointed with the Nissan X-Trail (not yet available in US). The Tucson was smoother, more roomy and had a much better ride. Way to go Hyundai!

  • Tuscon - Another Western Winner - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON

    The only thing missing on this vehicle is a lighted mirror in the sun visor. It has everything else. OK, I am a little tall so an extra two inches of leg room would be nice. But I still love to drive it.

  • Tuscon is a good buy - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    The Tuscon is a well designed SUV. Good safety features such as Electronic Stability, and Air Bags all around. In 2 wheel mode power will transfer to the rear if the front tires slip. A button puts the car in full time 4 whl drive. The car calls for regular gas however I find that it is more peppy with premium. Handles great on and off the highway. Handles great at high speeds; road noise low. Rear seats fold flat along with the front passenger seat. Can handle an 8 ft piece of lumber with the seats down. Excellent sound system. Only negative thing to say is gas mileage. I get 14 to 15 locally and 20 on the highway. The more heavy footed you are the worse your mileage will be.
