Previous Hyundai owner in 1987.

Enjoying the Santa Cruz very much. Drove it to Minnesota and was impressed with how well it handled on the trip and pleased with how comfortable it was.

Will never buy another

I really like the vehicle, but I will never buy another unless the " Take a break" feature is done away with or a method to disable it is included. There is nothing in the user manual which allows this nor can the dealership do anything about it. It was not mention in manual or by any salesman in the buying process.

I love this truck!

I love this truck - all the features are up to date and easy to use. The interior has everything I need. The truck bed is perfect and I love the plastic lined flooring inside.
