It’s great.

I started out with an SEL with Activity Package because after having a few turbo vehicles, I was shy about getting the Limited. After a few years, I decided to get the Limited and love it and the additional features that come with that level.

Love it

Really enjoying my Santa Cruz. It rides well and is quiet. Really no complaints, although back seat leg room could be better.

The truck is just about perfect for everyday city life.

Perfect for beach or mountain. I have four complaints. 1- Rear trunk is entirely too small to be useful. 2- Rollup tonneau cover broke six months ago and I am unable to open the cover to use the bed. I am still waiting for a warranty replacement (on back order with no end in sight). 3- Inability to have a full-size spare tire and a tow hitch, its one of the other as there isn’t enough room underneath. 4- Way too much plastic cladding. It looks ok now, but I am worried about what the sun will do to it in the coming years (e.g. the Chevy Avalanche). But thats it, the rest of the truck is near perfect, and I am very pleased with the purchase.

Not happy

The factory installed tonneau cover takes up too much space in the truck bed. The tires they sell them with are terrible.

One of the Best cars that I’ve ever owned

Awesome vehicle. Gets the job done. I’m a drummer and this vehicle is perfect for moving my drums and I still have room for passengers.

Love my little truck

I have the Limited Edition and enjoy all the bells and whistles that come with it. The safety features really enhance the driving enjoyment and were a life saver driving it home the day I bought it. I was on the interstate in a driving rain storm and visibility was horrible. Add in all the water being thrown at the windshield from the big semi's I could barely see 3 feet in front of me. But the cars ability to control following distances and lane keeping made it a safer drive. I was confident in it's ability to keep me safe.

Santa Cruz

Over all I've been very happy with the Santa Cruz. The worst impression I had of it was somewhat poor leg room in the back seat.

The Santa Cruz is a fun, stylish mini truck that’s fun to drive. Offers enough bed room to accommodate small loads. Overall a great vehicle. Have had issues with the sound system
