2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
I liked the way that it looked when I got it. Had them order me one off the truck as I wanted one that no one had driven before and got it with every option that is comes with.
Got the V-6 with 4WD and it's awesome in the snow.
I got the suv lowered and had 19s but on and took the olds off. Car's power lacked so had some motor work done. Supercharger, intake, cams, epc and etc. Car runs 11s on good day.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
Really nothing, Have owned three new Hyundai vehicles, and this one by far rates the worst to date.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
Give the engine some power, add cargo room, update design interior and exterior.
2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
I have owned this vehicle since new, hated it since week two, paid a little to much to make a valid trade. Had a lot of service due to lack of power and surge when driving. Never really resolved. Would never purchase another 4 cyl. vehicle from Hyundai.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
Style.
Handles well in winter with the 4 w. drive.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
Gas mileage sucks. Could be a lot better. Had a Olds Cutlass that got 30 on the highway and 27 in the city.
This gets 15 in the city and barely 20 on the highway.
2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
Would not buy another one. I bought it brand new, had it in for recalls and issues more times than my Olds, which I owned for 12 years. All I brought my Olds in for was maintenance. This is in all the time.
I thought it would be a better car....:(

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
This thing is solid. There's hardly anything to add. I've got the GL with the base CD player, which sounds awesome. Ride is smooth, and I like the safety features including the stability control and traction control which came standard. Additionally, I got mine for less than $17,000 out the door. Keep an eye out for rebates.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
Body seems to hop a little when you hit bumps. It's not difficult to control, it just has a slightly disconnected feel between the body and suspension on some bumps.
2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
Overall, a really fun, reliable vehicle. My second Hyundai in 12 years, which must say something.

Make it even more noise free. I can still hear noise from outside while driving. Increase the seat size so seat extends till the back of my knee.
2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
Less than 10,300 miles and 1 year later the 2006 Tucson makes a squeeling sound upon cold start. We have been told it is belts that need to be replaced. I am dissapointed that a brand new car will have these issues.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
It handles nice and seems to be quite peppy around town.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Hyundai Tucson?
The gas mileage really stinks!
2006 Hyundai Tucson Review:
The gas mileage leaves a lot to be desired! Mine consistantly gets 17.4 mpg regardless of how we drive or baby it between fuel stops. I feel that this is a gross miss representation of what the sticker says. The dealer told me to drive it 10,000 miles and it would improve. Right! At this milestone... it did not improve one bit.
