When I was going to get down to one vehicle and I wanted an SUV that was small enough to be easy on gas and yet large enough to haul a whole bunch of stuff. I looked at a number of different vehicles, drove around five different makes and sizes. After a month of reading reviews, test driving many vehicles, I decided it was the Hyundai Tucson for me. The vehicle is a bit larger then the previous Tucson's yet easy to drive and offers plenty of room. We've had the vehicle for about seven months now and it would take an awful lot for me to even think about the need for another vehicle. We have over 8,000 trouble free miles on the vehicle and have taken it on trips all up and down the Eastern seaboard. No matter how we drive the vehicle, no matter how much stuff we are hauling and no matter how many stops and starts we make, we consistently average over 29 miles per gall. That average comes when driving 70 to 75 with the air on for extended periods of time with a fair amount of stops. Funny note...about two weeks ago the dealer where I bought the vehicle called to see if I was interested in trading in my 2013 vehicle for one of the new 2014's. Took me all of five seconds to tell him it was not for sale or trade of any kind. The ride is quiet, smooth and you have plenty of power to accelerate when needed. The entire vehicle is just a job to drive. If you are looking for a smaller sized SUV that delivers on goodies, ride, overall comfort and a offers a carefree ownership, I would highly recommend you go test drive a Hyundai Tucson as it will surprise you with all that it has to offer.

I own a 2013 Red Hyundai Tucson Limited. I love the very soft leather seats, they are so comfortable on a long road trip. We have a built in navigation system and rather than your normal sun or moon roof, it comes with a Panorama roof which means the back seat area also is glass. We also have a backup camera which is great for backing out of parking spaces or parallel parking. The car handles very nicely and has an ECO boost button for better mileage. The backseat is rather roomy and there is plenty of cargo area along with the back seats folding down for carrying large items. The Tucson is very quite on the road and has a shield to keep the noise down when the roof is open.
