What is everyone's thoughts on this vehicle? I'm thinking of trading in my 2013 Silverado for one, but curious to get some reviews. According to Edmunds, Cars, and the like it seems to have decent reviews
Any info that can be given is much appreciated.

I have a 2012 Santa Fe. No problems. I like it. It's an automobile

Yeah, I'm not exactly thrilled about it, but it's a smart decision. My wife drives a CR-V so I'm used to the type of vehicle.

My wife drives a 2012 Santa Fe, which is the previous body style. It's been a really good car for us. The new body styles look to really improve upon fit and finish.

My wife has a 2015 Santa Fe Sport with all the bells and whistles. It's a really nice vehicle, but yes, the ride is a little harsh.

About 10 years ago I went from a Bronco to a Civic. It takes about a week to get used to the change. In fact, what I lost in utility I made up for in practicality for daily driving.

I don't hunt or fish or pull anything. I love my truck, but I don't really have any use for it other than the twice a year we load up on mulch, etc. to do yardwork. Dropping down would allow for some pretty nice monthly savings. I like SUVs so I'm not so much worried about that aspect of it.

My wife has the 2013 Sport. Great little car. She wanted an Edge and we got this at a far far better bargain than the fricking Edge with tons of bells n whistles.
Had some problems with the steering but they fixed them all on the warranty.

Kumho tires? If so, swap em out once they get enough use and you'll notice a huge difference.

Stock tires but I'm not sure what they are. All I know is my arse feels every bump. I'm sure you're right and I'll have no problems buying her different tires when the time comes.

My wife shredded a tire last Christmas. The timing sucked, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
The stock tires could barely pull into our inclined driveway without spinning out.

We have a 2013, my only complaint is the passenger seat sits so damn lie with no way to raise it.

Is it permanently stuck in the L.A. lean position?

Consider getting the Santa Fe with the available third row. The wheelbase is not much longer, but you get added versatility. More cargo space as well.
Ride is also better due to a little wider wheelbase.
The proportions look better on the 3-row Santa Fe models, IMO.

No, it won't raise up to sit taller.

Can you pump the recliner handle, or does it only control the recline motion?
