I don't. But I love it. I want to convince my husband to buy me one with 7 seat capacity.

My sister had one and loved it. It drives really nice and it's roomy. My SIL also has one and loves it.

This is exactly the one Im looking into.
I need more seating because there are times when I have my nephew with me and my sister. I figure they can have their "own" seat and my nephew won't be right on top of DS.
ETA: I need the room as well. We usually drive with my inlaws to visit my BIL & SIL who live out of state and we will also be making trips to FL in the near future.

The 2007 (I believe) is the only one with the Touring option. I got quoted 21K for this car in AWD at Atlantic AutoMall . The 2007 is also getting great safety reviews and I have seen it marked as one of the best family cars this year in a few different places.

Thank You so much for this info! DH will definitley be seeing these posts tonight!
Im very happy they are getting good reviews too and they seem very reasonable. I honeslty just need the basics.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I used to lease one and I loooooved that truck! It was sooo good in the snow too. DH couldnt wait for me to get rid of it cuz he thought it was "unsafe". Whatever that means, I have no idea.
But Im a big fan of this truck! Never had any problems in the 3 years I had it.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I own one- (have the 2001) and love it!
If i had the chance to buy one again i would. I know some people would say Hyundai?????? but it has been a great vehicle to me and you can't beat the warranty.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I don't know much about them but my friend has a 2007 and loves it! She had an older one (2002) before this one and liked that, but she absolutely loves the one she has now. The color is gorgeous (dark blue).

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I have an '03 and truly love it.
I have 115,000 miles on it and it runs great! I take it on the beach, long trips, etc.
I can't recommend this truck enough...even when the guy rear-ended me on the LIE @ 40 mph the damage was minimal considering how hard he hit me. The auto body guy told us that Hyundai's handle accidents extremely well.

I had an 03 and loved it. Was sooo sad to get rid of it but we needed the extra room of a minivan.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I had a 2003 which I loved. I now have a 2007 which I love even more, if that is possible. I have the deep blue sea limited edition with the heated seats (I'm such a girl - telling you the color) and I would recommend it, it has a great little cargo net in the back to put your shopping under (very important)
I love my Hyundai - he's called Horace by the way.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I have one and I love it. Drives like a car, doesn't eat gas, GREAT in the snow, roomy, but not huge on the outside.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I quite fancy one as my next car (if that ever happens) does anyone own one with a manual transmission?? Does it come in Automatic only???

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
My mom had one and loved it so much she traded it in for newer year.
I don't know of any con's based on her experience there weren't any.

Re: Anyone drive a Hundyai Santa Fe?
I have a 2003 and love it.
115,000 miles and still going strong!!
I take it off road and on long trips.
I have had no major problems with it.
When I got hit, it took it extremely well.
I highly recommend them - but I do recommend the 6 cylinder/4 wheel drive.
Whoops!!! Apparently I answered this already
