Limited AWD - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Pabs54321 - March 31 - 9:10 pmWe bought the Santa Fe so that we could transport our newborn grand daughter. My wife had a Mustang convertible and it was impossible to place the child in the car seat. We looked at quite a few SUVs and chose the Santa Fe. I never thought Id enjoy driving an SUV but I do enjoy the Santa Fe. My only complaint is the gas mileage, it is almost as bad as my V-8 powered truck which is also a 4X4.

Amasing - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By H Johnson - December 12 - 8:30 pmThis is our second Hyundai. We traded our 05 Elantra GT for the Santa FE 06. We drove it to our home here in Texas and was quite pleased with all the features as advertised by Hyundai. It has enough power, it navigated the mountains and curves exceptiopnally well,The only thing I didnt know at time of puchase is the inside trim. The glare from the chrome on the Console is the thing I cover with a cloth. NO big deal. The Santa FE will give milage with Cruise Control on and handles high winds with ease here in Soth Texas. The 07 is probably even better than ours but we will keep this one FOREVER! Good Vehicle and you feel SAFE in it. Keep up the good work but dont over price it.

I luv my SUV !!! - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Michigan - September 12 - 9:53 amI bought it a year ago and, even when I see the new Santa Fe on the roads, Im very proud of my last years choice ! Nice, safe, excellent warranty and quality, needs only to get the scheduled maintenance and it runs forever... Its nice to have the automatic 4X4, in this way everybody can have it without even think about "when to switch it on" or "how to do it"... its just there, only when you need it !

my new santa fe - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Anita Corrado - May 29 - 12:40 amI am very impressed with my new Santa Fe The gas mileage for a 6cyl, 3.5 engine is 22-24 mpg (fwd). The car has plenty of power and handles very well in the mountains. You can make a u turn in no space at all. The vehicle comes with everything you need without being nickel and dimed to death.

My baby - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Liz from Queens NY - March 16 - 6:50 pmI picked up my Santa Fe in August 2006. My hubby & I have a house in PA. We travel out there on weekends and Holidays. I noticed the caravan of Santa Fes on the highways. We look @ each other with wow I made a great choice on this SUV. Sometimes my husband and I start to count on a given trip we counted for about one mile there were at least ten on the same highway. Four were the same color as mine. I love my truck, and just like my American express I never leave home without it. Great SUV, great price for it and relly a reliable. Liz from Queens NY

A Teachers Dream Comes True - 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe
By Donna Coffin - February 5 - 6:03 pmI love my new Hyundai Santa Fe. There is plenty of storage for my school books, bookbag, posters, etc. On to the grocery store and still enough room for my groceries. We love traveling in my Santa Fe. The two Chihuahua cages fit perfectly in the back and a roll-down shield to protect them from the sun, what more could I ask. The students love my new vehicle. Thank you Hyundai for my "totally awesome ride".
