2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz Truck Quick Test Drive Review

[@arizonaunplugged-neilbrook9509]

I’ve got 28,000 miles on my Santa Cruz… People stopped me all the time to ask me about it. I drive it daily as a realtor, and on the weekends it’s high enough that I can get to trail heads for hiking that I couldn’t get to you in my Prius… It’s short enough that it fits in my single bay garage so I don’t have to share the two car garage with my wife, which is definitely a plus ha ha… The bed is perfect for going to the store and hauling small things that are hard to fit into an SUV etc. it’s my favorite vehicle honestly of all time🤙🏽👊🏽🤘🏽

I just picked up my 23 limited in SageGrey and I love it. ❤️. Only thing I might trade it for is if Ram brings back the Dakota with a V8.

Is the back big enough for three kids? The main use would be just for dropping them off @ school. They are 9 and two 11 year olds.

[@MrSmokingfrog1]

@Francisco Queiruga They should be ok with head and shoulder clearance, the foot space is a bit tight, though. I have no kids, so it's perfect for me.

I bought the base model SEL AWD and very happy with it. I upgraded it with a hitch, soft tonneau, bug deflecter and 18" Falken Wildpeak A/T trail tires.

Non Car people Don't know or remember Ford Made a Beautiful Pickup in the 60s Combined cab and bed that now is a great Collectors item. Look it up.

COME ON! TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THE WARRANTY 100K AND LIFE TIME SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES. THAT IS A HUGE SAVER!

[@rusty383]

If you look at the dashboard it's the Startreck bridge ! The shape and everything is Captain Kirk witch is very kool .

[@rusty383]

I get 27 City and 36 Hwy with the turbo. I can prove it

[@geneticrex]

Why people continue to call this vehicle a "truck", is ridiculous......and do you know how I know it's ridiculous??? I know because even the people who !!!MAKE IT!!! say it's NOT a truck. What it is, is basically a compact SUV, or SAV as Hyundai calls it, with an open rear for all those times you need to carry something you wouldn't want to put in a typical SUV. For example......something dirty, or smelly, or tall, etc.. Let Ford call their small entry with the interior straight out of 1981 a "truck" even though it can do nothing in a truck like fashion.

Tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me your didn't watch the video.

[@geneticrex]

@@DriveBreakFixRepeat I watched the video. My post applies to many video reviews. Moreover, my point is this - IT'S NOT A TRUCK......by any measure. A bed does not make it a truck, just as the bed in an El-Co didn't make that vehicle a truck.

[@clarkj3396]

Yes, it is a truck, and it's a truck that 95% of Americans should be using over their full-sized trucks.

[@B_noJ]

I call it a little truck. It hauls everything my 2005 xlt Ranger could, except a wheeler...

[@rusty383]

@@clarkj3396 I got rid of my huge F150. My Santa Cruz and my utility trailer does absolutely everything thing I need.
