Best Car I've ever owned.
I have loved driving this car since day one. I bought it over another make because of the 10 year warranty. In 13 years all I've had to do is oil changes, replaces tires and batteries, and 2 small inexpensive engine repairs. The paint is the only thing that could have lasted better, but then, it's been parked outside since day one also. It has plenty of power, get up and go when needed. I really do love it, I could buy a new car but would want the same make and model, and they don't make it with 6 cylinders anymore, only 4 cylinders, so I will keep the one I have, maybe get a paint job!

VERSATIL!!!
Love my Tucson! It can haul about as much stuff as my Ford Ranger pickup did... and out of the rain. THATS BECAUSE THE BACK OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOLDS ALL THE WAY FORWARD. It allowed me to carry 8-foot landscape timbers diagonally from front to rear. But I think Hyundai changed the seat around 2011 so that it does NOT fold all the way forward in later models. BIG MISTAKE.
Other than that... the only things I DON’T like are the loud sound level, and poor gas mileage as low as 18 mph. But perhaps for a 6-cyl SUV from 2006 it’s the norm.

Cons
HEADLIGHT CLEAR PLASTIC IS A PROBLEM. Yellows and fogs up.
Noise levels of wind and road.
Low gas mileage. (But mine is a V-6)
Feel of braking takes getting used to, but just takes a little time.

LOVE This Vehicle!
This vehicle is great! This is my second 2006 Tucson. Both purchased with 120,000 miles on them. First Tucson is still running with 275K miles on it. Current Tucson now has 205K miles. Low maintenance, great in all weather, very comfortable, great size, handles wonderfully. These vehicles just run and run with minimal repairs needed. I would seriously consider buying another 2006 Tucson in good condition with low (120K or less) mileage!

My Tucson is 13 years old and I have loved it since day one. I have never had any major problems with it and it has seen me thru many snow storms. Its comfortable, and starts on a dime. If I had to purchase a new car, it would be another Tucson for me.

Best car ever
This is the best car I have ever had. It is all season safe and can handle any road condition. It is a comfortable car to drive. I like the window size which gives great visability all around. When you shut the door you feel like you are in a solidly built vehicle.

Awesome little trooper!
Bought it new... original battery lasted ten years! Maintenance has been easy. One thing I have a problem with is fuse for the radio and cigarette lighter, and I have read it is a problem for that year Tucson.

Car Performance
Always liked the Tucson style of that era..
The engine could have been a bit more powerful.
This car is very reliable and gets me to vacation places .
Keep up the maintenance and it will last for a long time.

Great SUV even after 12 years of Ownership
Owned this vehicle for 12 years and probably will own for another 6 years. Love to get a newer model, but this one works great. In fact, I was asked by family that they would gladly take this vehicle off my hands when the time comes.

Great car, just struggling financially to keep up with the cost to maintain it, seems to be falling apart quicker then I would like it too. If Inhad a hire paying job it would be a much better gig....

Expensive repairs, lots of rust and corrosion. But if you have the income for it, then you should be fine. Keep in mind I do have a 2006 with 93,000 miles so it is getting up there, just aging quicker then I can financially keep up with and do not have the income for a new car.

I've had this vehicle for almost ten years now. AC has broken twice. I was given two options to keep chasing the less expensive parts or replace the whole AC system. I will not purchase another one.

I love my tucson
Driving and maneuverability are excellent. I am 6 feet tall but it is easy for me to get in and out if the drivers seat. Love the way the back seats fold for maximum cargo space when I need it
I know when I turn the key my tucson will start in in very cold midwest winter

My Hyundai experience
Have had this vehicle since 2008 and it has been a fantastic car. Over the years had to do very little. Our Hyundai has over 245 thousand miles on it. Just had to get a motor recently and replace a few original parts but it runs super great. We’ve traveled many place such as Canada, St. Louis, Michigan, smoky mountains, Atlanta, Nashville just to name a few in the vehicle. And the ride was smooth and comfortable. We have had 4 Hyundai’s and have 2 at this time. Love them.

Hyundai are great vehicles. I had an Accent for many years, and then got my Tucson. Both have been reliable and great! Both have really stood the test of time. I like the styles and colors, and enjoy the comfort of the ride.

Love my Tuscon
I have never loved a car as I do my Hyundai Tucson! I have owned many cars since 1973, however this car has been the most reliable vehicle ever. I have invested very little
in repairs, except for regular maintenance, and it still looks like a "million bucks". If I could marry my car, I would. The day when I decide to trade it in, I will cry!
