Hyundai's are awesome and Santa Fe's hold onto their value pretty well in the last 6-8 years.

Get a new GF.

I bet you'll make that Sante Fe look good though.

Nissan Maxima


I thought Nissan were the ones that sucked? Personally, I like the Maxima (had one as a rental for a week) but I heard they didn't hold up well.

Never heard anyone complain about the Hyundai FWIW.

Not at all, but the Santa Fe is one of my least favorite SUV/cross over body styles. It's terrible.

Nope. Also have one of the best warranties out there as well.

Tell me about the warranty. There seems to be some tier system where 3 year 36,000 covers everything, then another for 6 year 60,000 then 10 year 100,000

Sonatas are slowly trending toward a specific demographic.

I've considered them but Mazda wins out in my analysis in MPG, performance and aesthetics. Price isn't much diff.

Made in AL. So yes, they still suck.

Also they want $2,000 for an extended warranty. This feels like highway robbery to me. Should be around $1200 right?

Get the extended warranty online. The mark up at the dealer is outrageous unless you own the dealership.

“How do you double the value of a Hyundai? Fill it up with full tank of gas"
- Jay Leno 1994

In 1994 Hyundai was ranked dead last in JD Powers Associates survey. Times have changed after 20 years.
