  • Tuscon for Corvette - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    Traded 2002 Corvette for 05 Tuscon (even). Drastic change but no visits to service dept. after 1800 miles. Corvette couldnt pass dealership without needing service. Nice comfortable vehicle so far. Good use of space and comfortable ride. Believe it or not,better milage on the Vette. Main reasons for purchase (swap) warranty and even swap for vehicles. Had 75000 miles on Vette. Ran out of warranty in 20 months. Wont happen with Tuscon.

  • Great Car for the Money - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON

    Our dealership bent over backwards to help us find the perfect vehicle. As soon as I got in our Tucson, I knew that it was the one. Its great on gas and peppy. Its comfortable. Plus its got great little extras, such as hooks in the cargo department to latch grocery bags onto so they dont slide! We are so happy with it.

    Solid engineering and reliability. It is primarily used for comuuting. Fuel economy could be better but overall I am happy with the car.

    Like this vehicle a bunch. Good comfortable ride. Cant beat the warranty. A/C is cold and love the tinted glass. This is my first Hyundai and Im very impressed. Gas mileage is disappointing. Lucky to get 13 mpg in the city. Stereo is great. Nice and roomy.

  • My Baby!!! - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I bought my Tucson on April04, since then, Ive put 6K miles on it with no problems. After reviewing SUVs for months, I was undecided between the Equinox, the VUE and Tucson; fortunately, I think I chose right! Even though I havent had the opportunity to test the 4WD, it seems to be a very solid vehicle with nothing less that good safety features. The vehicle has a decent gas mileage, but the engine could be more powerful; may be they can design a 3.X one able to jump over the 210HP.

  • 2005 Tucson GL - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I purchased my first SUV and I love it. For the minimal amount of added cost to my payments I should have gone for the GLS like I wanted. I am TOTALLY satisfied with the GL. Havent seen any Tucsons on the road but mine and I am having a ball with it.

  • Best Vehicle Ive Owned - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    Im in my mid 40s & I have owned many cars over the past 25 years. This Tucson is by far the best vehicle that Ive ever had the pleasure to drive. I currently own a 2005 Toyota Matrix AWD, too. The Toyota is not in the same class as the Hyundai. I have no interest in driving the Toyota if the Hyundai Tucson is available. The problem is my entire family chooses the Tucson if they need to go anywhere. The car is very reliable, great in ice & snow, has very good visibility, plush & supportive seating, good power, smooth & comfortable ride, the sound system is second to none - What else can I say?

  • Best Small SUV - 2005 Hyundai TUCSON
    By -

    I did months of research for a new(my 1st!)vehicle to suit my needs and considered these factors- Price,Safety,decent cargo room,reliability/quality,snow/rain handling,good MPG,& looks. I tried the CR-V,Escape,Rav-4,Prius,Vibe & Matrix & Murano among others. The V6 GLS Tucson was the clear standout. I would recommend it.I LOVE IT
