Replying to: inharmsway (Nov 10, 2007 6:41 pm) OH, no question the lawyers are controlling your load ratings for maximum risk management (of Hyundai), but I'm just saying, your car isn't built with the overload capacities that a car with a towing package would have, like heavy duty brakes, cooling and transmission and oil cooling. If you really want to tow something, get a truck of some appropriate size to do it. That's what I do, and I recommend it. In all ways, it's safer.

Replying to: nvbanker (Nov 11, 2007 7:29 am) I am sure it would be much easier to tow with a truck, rear wheel drive and truck frame etc. But I read about the tow ratings on european cars compared to here. So for the last 15 years I have been trying to prove, that we do not really need all those big trucks in this country. I have towed a light colapsible camp trailer with a Saturn an Escort and now our Elantra. Since most pople only need a truck once in a great while the rest of the time you can drive a smaller car and save imported oil. I am just stubord I guess.   Niels

#1568 of 1634 MP3 Aux Input Question by g_designer Nov 13, 2007 (11:41 pm)
I bought a input cable from Radio Shack to connect my iPod Nano to the car. It sound kind of like its in mono. I don't here much stereo separation as compared to when I play CD's. Do I need a "special" cable? Thanks for any input. Replies to this message: backy (Nov 14, 2007 8:48 am) nthe (Nov 15, 2007 3:07 pm) butterflytiff (Nov 19, 2007 1:05 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: g_designer (Nov 13, 2007 11:41 pm) Some other owners, and reviews, noted that a cable came with the car. Did yours come with a cable? Replies to this message: nthe (Nov 15, 2007 3:07 pm) butterflytiff (Nov 19, 2007 1:05 pm) nthe (Nov 21, 2007 12:11 pm)

Replying to: nthe (Nov 15, 2007 3:07 pm) I am a little confused. If the car has mp3 capability and an aux spot it was supposed to come w/ a cable? What for? Replies to this message: nthe (Nov 21, 2007 12:11 pm)
#1572 of 1634 Re: MP3 Aux Input Question [butterflytiff] by nthe Nov 21, 2007 (12:11 pm)
Replying to: butterflytiff (Nov 19, 2007 1:05 pm) the mp3 capability is for playing mp3s burned onto a CD. The cable is for plugging a satilite radio or mp3 player directly into the radio.
#1573 of 1634 Whatta car by backy Nov 29, 2007 (2:21 pm)
I got to drive a 2007 GLS with 17k miles on it courtesy of Hertz this week. Took it up from NYC into upstate NY and western CT. Drove it for 3 days, about 160 miles, on a little more than 1/4 of a tank. Even with 17k rental miles on it, it was tight and rattle free, and the interior had held up well--just a couple faint scratches on the inside driver's door (too much hard plastic there). I was reminded how much I like the Elantra's smooth, quiet ride. It absorbs all but the biggest bumps well, and is nearly silent cruising at the NY/CT speed limits (55-65 mph). I do wish the GLS had the telescopic wheel like the SE though--I found a nearly perfect driving position but wished I could move the wheel towards me a bit. Also FM radio reception was poor. I don't know if it was because I did most of my driving in and around the hills of the Brewster/Somers area. The heater was great, warmed up in about 1 mile on mornings of around 30 degrees. I like the intuitive, smooth, precise-feeling HVAC controls.   Before I got to the Hertz lot, I thought, "It would be nice if they gave me an Elantra." And they did.
#1574 of 1634 no low winshield fluid warning light. by mariogp Dec 11, 2007 (11:10 am)
I find it hard to beleive that there is no warning light for "low winshield fluid"   Am I missing something here.. or this the way it supposed to be.
