    All of these should include this lift and tire setup as standard equip.

    Hyundai should start giving people the option to get their trucks lifted. Looks so good.

    They should make it a new model to the Santa Cruz lineup just like the big 3 all have their lifted off road models . Probably have really good sales with it .

    If only it wasn't dual clutched and had lockers....it misses the point of being an adventure vehicle when you put a dual clutch in it...terrible for actual adventures.

    I have a '22 SC, SEL w/activity package, so I'm not sure if I will lift mines, especially since my wife is short lol, but definitely getting more aggressive tires soon to handle more off road camping.

    I would consider this vehicle, if you could get an upper trim level without a sunroof. I would also prefer a V6 to a turbo 4 cylinder.

    • @MTBVermont
      @MTBVermont Před 9 měsíci

      I'm not a sunroof person. I have a sel premium and it's a tinted window so it doesn't let light in. Much more desirable

      The New Honda Ridgeline's look sick with lifts. But Honda can't make a good V6 to save their life.. 4cyl Kings tho.

    I have the SEL Premium turbo and we Love it. If you put the new K&N filter on really help and I too the big Hulking Resanter off and put a stainless steel Steel dule exhaust tail outlet totally awesome sound and look .Your Fuel economy gets better after first Oil change mine is now 25 City and 34 Interstate! But But you have to keep your foot out of it . Because the Sound is so good without that 3rd muffler in the back and the huge weight reduction it's Amazing. The fricken Ford Can't touch this. Last Make Sure your Dealer is changing your oil with the Factory Synthetic because I I cought my Dealer Cheating me. Please Check!

  • @norsefalconer
    @norsefalconer Před rokem

    Did the dealer do anything to correct for the larger tires? Otherwise, the mileage mentioned isn't correct, neither is the speedo, or odometer. The latter could allow Hyundai to claim warranty fruad as it will show fewer than actual miles. Something to consider.

  • @B4thunder28
    @B4thunder28 Před rokem +1

    Fuel economy? You hammered it during a 3 miles loop? I drive mine daily, on a range road (dirt, rocks, sand) and she’ll get 26.2 mpg so no worries on if a Santacamino gets decent fuel mileage. PLUS, the thing is a hoot and will fly quite well with its power adder motor. I don’t miss my 2022 AT4 Duramax at all…especially since I have nothing to tow over 5k pounds. SC are a fun drive, handle great, decent fuel mileage w/1400 pound payload, yup works for me.

  • @godwhomismike

    That should be a factory option, as well as a Sport-tex water-resistant/stain proof seat material. Lose the piano black trim pieces for some faux-carbon fiber scratch resistant plastics, and offer the Bose in it. That would make the Santa Cruz at the top of my shopping list, bumping out the Forester Wilderness.

    If the speedo is not corrected for the tire size that may actually be close to 19 mpg.

    Hyundai should consider doing what Ford does and offer a Black Widow package to showcase how powerful this thing could be with the proper mods and still be under warranty. But, overall, I'm okay considering this an actual truck because of its increased stance.
