Hyundai Tucson: Prices paid & buying experience by raythegerman

Sorry to see you leave Erie County but I can't blame you...My step-son graduated from UB a few years back and just couldn't find a suitable job here....He finally left and moved to Lancaster, PA and works for the federal government....The whole situation here in Erie County just disgusts me...Watch the 1% tax go through along with a huge property tax.
 
My wife had a RAV4 for four years under a lease and it was a great car---no problems for the four years she had it....However, as you say, a loaded RAV is going to cost around $27,000......We obtained the GLS Tucson after all the discounts for less than $21,000....and it has a much better ride than the RAV! I just hope it holds up as well as the RAV over the long term. I also see in the paper today that Fuccillo on Grand Island is going to open a Hyundai dealership there around November---maybe you can get a better deal with them, if you're still here at that time....Good luck in Louisville---maybe a race horse would be better than an SUV????

I'm a teacher, so my contract starts in August. I would only be back in Buffalo to help my mother move out of state...she is a retired school teacher who has decided to sell her house now that I won't be living in the area!
 
As far a Fuccillo, I started off there looking at the Matrix and I wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be. I was approached before I even got out of the car, which compared to the dealerships that completely ignore you, was a pleasant surprise. However, we got into a debate about the amount of time the cars have sat on the lot...I got the usual "these cars just came in" and I responded by saying that they looked like the same exact three cars that were there about a month ago...I remember colors and options and these were definitely the same cars! Also, the salesman was limited in his knowledge about Toyotas and told me that the car he just showed me had a sunroof...which it didn't. After he noticed his screw-up, he fell all over himself trying to correct it. (A gaping hole in the roof, or lack thereof, is a hard thing to miss) I can only imagine what the final contract would look like if he came in contact with it! To make a long story short, that's how I ended up at West Herr.
 
I looked at the Tucson again today...I really like the drive of the car...very quiet and responsive. I, like you, wonder about the long-term reliability, BUT with a 5/50,000 bumper to bumper warranty, I guess you can't beat it! I'm still on the fence, but I am leaning towards a new Tucson.
 
As far as the race horse...if I place my bets right next May at the Derby, I might be facing a very early retirement...wouldn't that be a shame?!

TMV ? by batman47

The TMV pricing given by Edmunds for a Tucson LX 4WD is about $22,000. My question is will this TMV price included all the other additions like license, taxes, plate, etc? If it doesn't include the additional costs how much approximately should I budget for this extra cost?
 
Thank

TMV does not include taxes and fees. They vary depending upon state, dealer etc... Look at the paperwork on your last purchase and you should get a general idea.

Tucson vs. Kia Sportage by rdillier

Since both are owned by Hyundai, can anyone tell me the basic differences between the two? Considering a 4wd SUV for my wife, who works with a catering company. Haven't driven either yet. Also considering a Santa Fe, but I'm not sure about around-town mileage. After our '98 Mercury Sable died (Sheesh, how come foreign auto manufacturers can open U.S. plants and produce quality vehicles while Detroit churns out more of the same crud?) we DID test drive the '06 Sonata in both 4- and 6-cylinders, and they were GREAT.

You can buy Honda CRV EX for 22,000+ Tax easily in upstate NY. Why to go for Tucson when the price differential is just about 1,200 for Tucson. I would expect at least a differential of 4,000 for Tucson. If one get Santa Fe for 22,000 then it is ok.

My deal in south Florida by rich67

Just bought a Tucson GLS and found basically the same deal at two dealerships, King and Rick Case......both mark up the sticker price about $1500. with phantom services which mean nothing.....if you deduct them and about another $1000. you should come close. The Santa Fe is a better and cheaper buy with the 3500. rebate, but is somewhat underpowered. I understand they are going to offer a new Santa Fe which is bigger and more powerful, made in the new plant in Alabama for 2006. The Tucson was compared with the Subaru Forester, RAV 4, VUE, Honda CRV.....found it to be the best ride and warranty.

Read the Sportage or Tucson Forums from the start, look at both websites or compare brochures!!!!!!!!!

I also drove about 50 miles to buy my Hyundai, and I have 3 other dealerships within a 12 mile radius. They just wouldn't match the quote. Their loss. You'll love your Tucson - it's been great the first 7500 miles.

Tucson LX 4WD by ysheldon

This evening I bought a Tucson LX 4WD w/ sunroof at Kerry Hyundai, Alexandria, KY. It is loaded, and I guess the package is the top of line. Looked around Greater Cincinnati area for a week or so. It is amazing that I could not find any LX FWD with the color we prefer. Finally moved to 4WD with the right color. The OTD price is $23,000. My wife and me are happy with this new vehicle. Hope it will run great in the future.
