One thing you forgot to mention was the electrical outlet in the other cubby of the truck bed. I think that's a really cool addition worth mentioning.

Thank you for the great review -- and the scripture reading! God bless you and all viewers! Your video helped me in my decision to upgrade from my 2022 SEL Activity FWD. Loved that Santa Cruz; it was a great vehicle over the last 3 years. But, I wanted to step up to the AWD turbo, the nicer interior with all the amenities, and LED headlights. Ended up getting a great deal! All glory and honor to God!

Isaac!!! I don’t know if remember at all but , I was one of your first 100 subs and used to watch your videos religiously. Oh my days , well I was 16 at the time I’m now 20 . You inspired me to rededicate my life to Jesus and that no truck beats a Toyota tacoma lol been one of dreams since to own one 😂 . Thank you so much for everything and all your amazing reviews ❤

I really enjoyed your review. I've been admiring the Santa Cruz, since I saw one on the hwy in Alaska, where I live. I have read quite a few reviews by people in CO and MN, saying how great the AWD is. I definitely won't be off-roading, but I deal with lots of snow and ice every year. We're due for a new vehicle and already have a 2005 Ford F150, so no need for a full-size truck. I love the unique look of the Santa Cruz, so I am very drawn to it. I think I'm going to seriously consider getting the 2025, since it will have many new updates and I'm hoping they will have the transmission issues figured out. It has such a great warranty, so I think I'm willing to take the risk. I'm so glad I watched your review to the end. It was so refreshing to see you claim your faith and share the Word of God. Stay strong and faithful. God has soo much more in store for you. God Bless You!

@@AlphaShark Yeah, I thought I needed to dial it back a little. But I basically mean what I say about your approach to reviewing. We need some good tech, some comfort, some practicality, and an interior that is stylishly minimalist. This checks a lot of the boxes, and you showed that in your review, whereas other reviews focus on other obvious stuff. But I think a potential buyer of this vehicle is more concerned with what you chose to discuss. Keep up the good work.

Santa Cruz has wireless car play and the trim you liked so much is part a multi vent system for air and heat you missed the digital mirror for when the rear view is blocked by cargo, You missed all the features of blue link to get updates for service lock unlock, start/stop and heat steering wheel or climate control. Blue link is shareable if you want to lend you car/truck. You also missed the 135 plug in in the rear storage. Blue link comes free for 3 yrs not 2 or 6 months the warranty is 5 years or 100000 km with 5 yrs roadside assistance. Hope that helps!

Just checked it out at the dealership,the xrt model. I really wanted to get one but I hit my head getting in. I tried 5-6 different times. I’m 6’1”. I had to bottom out the seat height and headroom was pretty bad. The rear seat is very underwhelming, no center armrest no ac vents or usb ports. While I’d never use the rear seat, the kids who would,that you don’t want complaining, would certainly get fidgety.

4x8 sheet goods fit nicely. There’s a shelf/step formed into each side of the bed that you guide sheets onto and then the tailgate cables can moved up to a higher indent that levels out and supports your sheets.

Isaac, saudações do Brasil! Hyundai está cogitando importar a Santa Cruz para cá. Estou torcendo muito! Já estou no meu terceiro Jeep Compass Trailhawk mas cansei do modelo e não temos nada de novo por aqui. Pesquisando, KZbin me trouxe até seu vídeo. Amei a forma calma que usa para apresentar, sem pressa, falando calmamente (o que me permite entender con tranquilidade seu inglês!) E, a chave de ouro, foi você se dizer um Cristão no final do vídeo e encerrar com A Santa Palavra! Incrível, inédito, surpreendente e estimulante! Ganhou um fã no hemisfério Sul! Deus te abençoe muito e sempre!

Love the Santa Cruz. I was a diehard GM?Chevy fan for most of my life until they decided to get rid of Android Auto and Apple Car play on their newer vehicles. Then there is the greed and lack of affordable cars and trucks for normal middle class people. I have a 23 Bolt EUV that I love and 2004 z71 4x4 truck. Unless something majorly changes with GM/Chevy I will be looking at other car companies, The New future model of the Bolt will be to little to late.

I think this design was an absolutely beautiful truck/car concept.

But if I had all the money in the world then I would definitely buy this as my JUST FOR FUN second vehicle. you did a nice review tho.

@@AlphaShark For me, more physical buttons and a better looking screen. The aesthetic of the way the screen is built into that ugly slab of gloss black panel is not to my liking. The way they've done it on the Palisade would be more to my taste. Yes! the Palisade (Calligraphy trim) that is another dope ass car they make. sadly neither the Santa Cruz or the Palisade is available here in the UK......so to get them we would have to do an international import which would add even way more money and extra hassle. Why would Jesus and the CEO's of Hyundai allow such a world to exist...WHY!!!?

I was NOT trying to make a direct or equal comparison of the two cars.

The typically cheap made Hyundai Santa Cruz is rated at 22 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. Adding all-wheel drive drops city and highway figures by 1 mpg. The turbocharged version has estimates of 19 mpg city and 27 highway. Compared to the 2024 Ford Maveric with 40 mpg city/33 mpg highway. Even worst the more versatile Ford Ranger gets 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. The best in breed 2024 Toyota Tacoma Hybrid gets 24 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway! The much more versatile full sized RAM 1500 gets 22 mpg city/32 mpg highway! The way bigger GMC Sierra 1500 gets 24 mpg city/29 mpg highway. And both the RAM and Sierra are real trucks! Why in God’s name would anyone buy one of these cheap Hyundai lemons? Must be because of the great record Hyundai has in building engines 🤣🤣
