Used 2005 Hyundai Tucson Consumer Reviews
THE "SMART" BUY
This is Dad's commuting SUV. I wanted something that affordable, cost efficient for commuting, and fit in the garage nicely. The fact that this card was only 170 inches long meant that I could park in the garage and still have room for the kid's bikes. (32 inches shorter than my old Intrepid.) I compared the CRV, Escape, and Tribute, Escape, and Santa Fe, Sportage. You just could not match the value of the Korean vehicles. I decided I like the look and Styling of the White Tuscon over Kia and other models. To each there own.
Value for money
Bought new and driving for almost 4 years - no breakdowns till date - running smooth. Poor mileage (19-20 mpg)- time to replace the stock tires (39,000 - guess not bad). Car used to pull towards right - aligned the wheels twice (almost everytime during the scheduled service) - they can't figure out why it's pulling like that - now they're saying it could be due to worn out tires - but the problem started after 20k miles.. I am going to put Michelin on it next week and balance the wheels once again - will see if the problem still persists. Otherwise a great car - my first car was a sonata which also did great for 5 years.. I hope Tuscon also does well in the coming years!

Great SUV for the price & dog friendly!
This is the third Hyundai we've owned and they just keep getting better and better. I liked the Santa Fe but thought it was a little too goofy so I was leaning towards a Toyota Highlander. For a much better price, we got a great SUV that's good looking and has a lot of zip to it. We bought the GLS with the body cladding instead of the LX because we're in Texas and certainly didn't need the seat warmers and I preferred the stereo system that had the cassette player anyway, but I wanted leather, so our dealer used a local shop and gave us much better quality leather than Hyundai offers for much less than the LX package price. Great fold-down flat rear seats for the 3 dogs!
