A Big small truck

I moved from a sedan to a Santa Cruz and after a few months of ownership can not imagine how I did all that I’ve done with this vehicle already. Super comfortable, versatile , comfortable, rides so smooth. I just love it!

Satisfied, yet issues were expected.....

The Good: The correct color. Handles well. Love the bluelink. Lights brighter than the reviews said. Plenty of power. Bed space adequate..... Bad points: My auto windshield wiper function does not work. There is a glass scratch on the underside of my sunroof. I was expecting front recovery tow hooks. Under the wheel wells and some undercarraige panels are some kind of fabric that IS NOT plastic, rubber, or metal. Shame they wouldn't downgrade from the leather to the fabric seats I wanted. Overall,.....as long as there are no recalls, I'm happy. Hopes: a closer maintenance shop or authorized tech.

Hard to get used to

This is a very functional and comfortable truck. My one complaint is the way it changes gears..the engine revs, shifts, loses some power and then continues. Ive. been told by the dealer that this is a "smart" function and that since the truck has 8 gears is does it often...Its off putting but I am getting used to it.

Great multi use vehicle at good value

The AWD SEL model is a good multi-use vehicle with a good selection of amenities and features for the price, making it a good value.
