2010 Sonata sighting by backy

I saw some 2010 Sonatas at my local Hyundai dealership today. As previously reported, they look the same. But the pricing seems higher. I looked at a GLS with AT ($19,900) plus PEP ($650), mats and I think a cargo net, and it was $21,4k! That seems several hundred more than a 2009. Maybe Hyundai is preparing us for the price of the all-new 2011 Sonata, which I expect will be higher still.
 
(Wasn't sure where to put this, as there's a discussion for the 2009 Sonata and 2011 Sonata, but not 2010. Since the 2010 is a carry-over, maybe this one could be called "2009-10 Sonata"?)

Sure, why not?
 
IIRC, the 2011 discussion was originally 2010 and you (I think?) asked me to change it to 2011. So this is a good compromise, thanks!

Why does my brothers 09 sonata v-6 get the same or better mileage than my 09 sonata v4? I thought my 4 cyclinder would be better on gas.

Swap cars and see what happens. I'll bet it's driver technique.

I bet jlindh is right - it's probably due to the fact that you two drive differently. You may be a little heavier on the gas, acceleration, braking etc.

It could also be the type of driving you both do...mix of highway/city. How much stop & go, short trips vs longer trips.etc.

Could be the type of gas. Ethanol lowers your gas millage up to 20%

This is only a suggestion you might try, I found by trying different brands of gas
with my GMC truck I consistently got better mileage w/ Shell regular unleaded.
It has a 4.3l v-6 and I used it for oilfield hauling (hotshot). Many miles in short
period of time like 5000+ miles in a week, 1900 miles trip, etc, so was able to
check mileage closely. With that kind of gas bill month after month you will do
your best to save fuel!!! 1 mile per gallon does make a difference. Average about
16,000 miles a month 19 mpg gas price about $3.00 + a gallon ($2500./$3000.)
a month. When self employed and that comes off the top one drop of gas matters.
Have checked my new 2009 Sonata se v-6, same results even more evident. It likes
the Shell much better. Around here not all gas has Ethanol. (don't like it anyway).

I have the same problem with my 2009 Sonata Limited...they did wheel alignment, but problem still here...next step, they are going to give me a loaner and have their Hyundai rep get involved...possibly considering frame machine adjustment...when I had the wheel alignment the castor was out of spec on the hunter precision machine..also, left and right castor differed by 0.2 degrees....no adjustment available for castor.....will be going back in a few weeks....stay tuned....
