Hyundai Veracruz, yet another SUV

Post by ColonelPanic »

I'm glad that Hyundai found it necessary to offer another SUV... Those poor SUV buyers, man, they have such limited choices! official site It does have some redeeming qualities, like auto dimming outside mirrors and rain sensing wipers, woo hoo! I wouldn't mind having the mirrors especially. It looks roomy, and has a 3rd row seat that might just be usable to haul a human or two. 260 HP and a crappy 25 MPG highway, but considering it's the same engine that's in the Azera which gets 28, it isn't doing too terrible despite being a huge, heavy SUV.Don't think I'm sold on the schnoz yet, the cluster of lights reminds me of the aztek for some reason. But aside from that, it looks alright I guess.http://www.autoreviewsonline.c...15154LOTS of pics here:http://news.windingroad.com/bo...-4550

The exterior looks like they ripped off a CR-V and then fixed the weird nose.

Yeah, so the next day, the CR-V calls up his buddy RAV-4. CR-V: "dude, I scored last night with Tribeca!" RAV-4: "Who is Tribeca, I don't know her. What does she look like?" says the RAV-4.CR-V: "Oh, she's alright but she is a butterface..."RAV-4: "wha? butterface?"CR-V: "Her body rocks, but her face... " lol
