Replying to: gunga64 (Sep 25, 2007 5:36 am) Have you driven any of these vehicles? If not, I suggest that you do. I also suggest that you take a close look at the Hyundai Tucson. It comes with the same 2.7 liter V6 as the Santa Fe GLS and it's a FANTASTIC little SUV, especially in Limited trim. Check it out. |

Looks like a 2-2-2 seating arrangement. The 3rd row is optional. They'll have to change the name as I'm sure Ford would object. http://youtube.com/watch?v=97bFi1Z7w7E

Replying to: coolmazda5 (Oct 04, 2007 6:39 pm) The concept that previewed it was nice, but I think it came out looking a bit bland in the end. Toyota should take more risks. Style it better and market it as a Scion. |

Replying to: dnatoday (May 18, 2007 4:22 pm) Okay, creds in. No minivan, suv, crossover or wagon is going to be fun to drive if you think 2 wheeled curves are juicy. Anything in the above category is too tall, too slow in the shift (it's an automatic, man!), too soft in the struts and just not meant for clenching your jaw and praying. Tell your husband from me, you can't double clutch a minivan, but you can keep your wife and kids safe and well transported. Get your husband some sort of used fun-to-drive-something and get the Rondo for your family. You'll never get both in one package.

Replying to: jessinpgh (Oct 05, 2007 7:59 pm) I searched and searched for a family hauler (7+ passengers) that was sporting and finally gave up and just got a minivan. Even without a price limit, they just get too heavy, and still aren't sporty, no matter how much you spend.

Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 10, 2007 9:29 am) . It only stops every 1/4 mile. 2 things killed the deal for me: the color and no sliding doors
