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!!

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.

My personal SUNDAY

My Tucson is like one of the kids. It has been with me through the good times and the bad times. I want to thank the Hyundai corporation for making this awesome vehicle that I hope to keep in the family for a very long time. Great job!!

Great little suv

This is a great car I have owned it since new in 05. Everything on this car still works great. It goes every where summer or winter. Body still looks great. I just love this car. The v6 is a strong running beast.

This is by far the best purchase I made from Hyundai. I've had two other cars from this dealer, I love their vehicles. I wouldn't dare buy anything else. I don't like the new tucson, no detailing everything is all one piece. No fuel exhaust like mine. Don't like the new tail lights has no character. The 2005 tucson was by far the best one made.

2005 Tuscon still running like new!

By having Winn Hyundai take care of my car for every need I have, I have no doubt the car will be going in great condition for a really long time. The Tuscon is a great car, and I am a happy owner. Thank you Hyundai, and thank you to the service department at Winn Hyundai!

2005 Tucson GLS V6 4WD

I have been very happy with my Hyundai Tucson and have driven it across country twice. I’ve been to California, North Dakota and Atlanta Georgia and all those states in between. 165,000 miles and still going strong. The gas mileage is really good too. I have to say I’ve used my Tucson for working, camping and traveling and it has been ideal for each of those uses. I’ve owned many cars and trucks and this is as good as any of those except when I needed to bring home my riding mower. To sum it up, I love it.

Still going strong

My dealership, Antwerpen in Clarksville, Md, keeps it in shape. I have been driving this car for 14+ years and never had a real issue with it. It has some of the first safety features available and I took a chance in 2005 with this new model. It's paid off. I am really happy with this car.

My Tucson

I have decided this is the last car I will ever buy and it has served me very well. It is 14 years old and I am still pleased with it.. I have had this car since 08 and consider myself "that little old lady from Carson City" who has gotten a lot of use out of it.,

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.

Fifteen years and running strong.

We bought our Tucson 15 years ago and have used Ken Garff Hyundai for all it's service except for tires. So they know the car and it's service history. We bought this car with the thought that we would be keeping this car for a long time and it has not let us down. That is why we just bought a third Hyundai 5 days ago. I know a car dealer does not want to hear that this may be my last new car, but I hope to keep this new car as long!

2005 Tucson

This was my first hyundai purchased. It seems you get a lot more from hyundai from the other brands. This car is 13 years old and I have only had one minor problem when the air hose worked lose. I have done all service myseft including a timing belt changes which was not easy. Still runs great and have no plans to get rid of it in the near future as it has been so reliable. I wish it would have got a little closer to the EPA milage but I am still OK with it as it has been so reliable.

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 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.

Great auto!

I've been very fortunate to find this vehicle. Have owned it since 2011 and purchased it with less than 12000 miles on ti and it has proven to be dependable and trustworthy! Very happy with it. Still runs fabulously even after being 13 years old!

Love my 2005 tucson!

My car, Charlie, is fabulous. I have had him since 2007. I have some bells and whistles, heated seats, sunroof, 6 cd changer and cassette player, etc. Charlie is not hard or costly to maintain. My recommendation is to invest in a tucson!

Replacement Car Keeps Me In Business

Bought this car in September 2018 as a replacement for my 2007 Sonata--four breakdowns in a month, and the last having to do with the engine. My mechanic had this car on sale at his workplace. Found I liked riding high and the Tuscon is easy to handle. Trunk area and one seat folded flat gives me as much room needed as the trunk space in the Sonata. Good pickup in traffic, great headroom, fairly decent gas mileage, and no body damage. Poor points are no inside vanity mirror, noisy cabin, and the fuel gradations are so tiny that amount is difficult to gauge. "Consumer Reports for 2011", said it was one of the cars with the least amount of repairs overall.
