2005 Hyundai Tucson GL 4 Cylinder
Summary:
I will continue to recommend the Tucson to anyone looking to purchase a small SUV at a great price
Faults:
Radio not connected to antenna when vehicle was delivered. (Repaired immediately by dealership)
Rear Defroster disconnected during repair of radio antenna (Repaired immediately by dealership)
General Comments:
The mileage has been acceptable - around 21 mpg city, which is where I am normally driving. The locations I am most often in are very "stop and go" type areas.
Highway mileage is great - around 25 mpg, when the car is not loaded down or traversing mountains.
Highway mileage when loaded down and traversing mountains is around 21 mpg, still acceptable.
I have no complaints so far with this vehicle. It is not as powerful as a V6, obviously, but I'm very happy with the model I chose. It suits my needs quite well.
We took the vehicle on a 2000 mile round trip about 2 months ago, with no problems.
The vehicle handles very well in the snow and ice that we have in New England.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Just wanted to add an update to my original Tucson comments. I'm still very satisfied with the vehicle. Still no problems, and we're up to about 11,000 miles now. Have had a couple oil changes, and routine service. I still really enjoy the vehicle - and still recommend it!
