Great little SUV

I very much enjoy my 05 Tucson. The 2.7 V6 engine is very peppy! The vehicle handles and drives well. The overall performance of the Tucson is as good as much more expensive competitors. We presently own three Hyundais. I would recommend a Hyundai to all my friends.

2005 Hyundai Tucson

A reliable, cost-effective vehicle. Not too happy with the functioning of the automatic transmission (tends to downshift early and remain in 2nd or 3rd gear on hills,): the retainer for front ashtray broke several years ago and it's annoying that it won't stay closed; the functioning of the power door locks are a nuisance, and as of last week, the drivers manual lock switch is inoperative.

LOVE MY CAR

I have been driving for 50 years and I have never had a car so long (13 years). I only have 80,000 miles but I have never driven a car to that extent. I think it's probably time to trade it in but I hate to let it go!

2005 Best Tucson Year

The 2005 Tucson is comfortable and just the right size, not too small/large. The build quality is sturdy and it handles even the bumpiest roads well. It has good highway gas mileage and It's basic features performs well. The overall styling, interior/exterior is of good quality. If you keep up the maintenance on the vehicle it's reliability is fantastic! This make and model year of the Tucson is a great value for the money.

2005 Best Tucson Year

This model year may not have all the bells and whistles of the newer models but it has all the others beat in quality, service and maintenance. At 103,000+miles still runs like a champ in bad weather.

2005 Tucson

Still running, some parts are now starting to fail, horns, hydrolics for the hatchback, light housing is foggy, (after dealership cleared them up once). Not a bad investment for the money. I may buy another in a few years.

2005 Tuscan manual tranmission

I've driven a stick for most of my adult life. My last five cars have been manual transmission vehicles. I wanted a small SUV with a manual transmission. I live in Brooklyn. There aren't many manual SUVs in this town. In 2009 I bought this car from a guy who moved to NYC from New Mexico (where stick shifts are plenty). His wife didn't want to drive a stick, so he sold it to me at a bargain price. I love driving this car. I'm a very independent filmmaker. I sometimes sell stuff at flea markets. I lug big canisters of movie film to film festivals. And my wife & I shop big. This car is perfect for us. We've had to change the clutch twice in 14 years. Not bad. The worst problem was an electrical problem the dealership service dept in Brooklyn took care of. I can honestly say I am close to loving this car.

Tuscon at 200,000 miles

This appears to be a really well put together vehicle. I have the v6 and I'm concerned about the mileage as I'm getting just over 21 mpg with 2WD. The engine is tuned, brakes aren't dragging and the tires are new. Other than that I love it. I'm in Ohio and a lot of vehicles are already rusting out but no sign of rust here. It drives great, is quieter than my Cadillac and has lots of room for tools and people. Hope to make half a million miles.

2005 Hyundai Tucson

I bought this car new, and except for some electrical problems in the beginning, it's been a great car for 15 years! Because no one in the family has a truck, it's done a lot of moving and hauling. Hasn't let me down yet!!

Really love this car, has been reliable and minimal repairs for the year that it is. Love that it's a V-6 too. 4-wheel drive. See these around town and friends and family have one. Would buy another one.

2005 Hyundai Tucson

I've had this car for 16 years - at the beginning there was an electrical problem, but Hyundai found it, fixed it and it's been great ever since. It's comfortable to drive and it's comfortable as a passenger. The cargo area when the seats are down is terrific!

A smooth car fully loaded

I love my car. I have own a Accent and Elantra before. When I retired and was moving to the current location, I wanted suv and since I could not afford a brand new one, I was lucky to find this one fully loaded. I am very happy with its performance and hope to get a newer version of it sometimes. Up to now, I have had no problem with it except for few wears and tears which are taken care of at the maintenance level.

Dependable small s u v

I love my diverse Tucson. This 4 wheel drive SUV has never let me down during the snow or heavy rain. This vehicle has transported kayaks, queen size beds and frames. The Tucson. Has also towed a trailer with no problems.
