Other Choices:

The 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe lands in an interesting middle ground between more compact crossover SUVs such as the Toyota RAV4, and mid-sizers such as the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. The Santa Fe is easier to park than those mid-sizers while boasting a more settled ride on the highway than the compact competition--though beware that the firm suspension is choppier than the norm on rough city streets. The Santa Fe's third-row seat feels bigger than the one offered in the RAV4 and works in a pinch for kids.

    Don't buy a Santa Fe

    If the dealership closes like mine did those "cheap" oil changes and the great warranty are no good. My next "closest" dealer is 2 hrs away. My NEW car already has been in 1X with an electrical prob and now it has died. The engine light and ESC light came on and then it gave up on the hwy. The window squeaks and the sun roof leaks. Look for another make!!!! For this price u can get something better.
