Maybe I'm drunk, but is Hyundai the new Toyota?

And vehicles that will hold together past 80k.

 

They could give me a million mile warranty I still wouldn't buy it. I don't want to bother with getting it fixed all the time even if it's still under warranty. I remember my buddy's old Excel, what a pile that thing was. I was able to bend the door with my bare hands when it got tweaked. Maybe they make decent cars now but I still can't forget what pile of shit that old Excel was.

 

Toyotas are just that dang good!!

 

Long time coming but here is my status update on a Hyundai. Traded said Sonata in yesterday for a Honda CR-V, had nothing but postive things to say about the Sonata. Treated us well, never had to do anything with it other than the wife didn't screw the gas cap all the way one time and that set off a warning light that cost us about $100 give or take. Not the cars fault there LOL. Would consider buying another... this case is closed.

 

I know it' hard to really tell but, how did you do on the trade in value on the Sonata?

I remembe when Hyundai came out with the longer 10/100 deal. Seems I remember it was to help stimulate sales...other manufactures have upped theirs as well. I'm not sure I'd buy one...yet but, I agree with some of the older post in the thread. Hyundia is (or seems to be) improving.

 

toyota becoming the new GM?

 

They gave us about $500 off of KBB value so about $4000 in trade in which is why you should sell private party, but I'll admit its so much easier to trade in. I did wince when i seen their numbers....but I signed the paperwork regardless.

Again we really had a great experience with the Sonata, wife wanted to try Honda so we went that way this time.

 

Dependability has nothing to do with length of warranty.

 

Just because I am a government retiree, I am very qualified to give you the best answer. My nephew put up a good word for me. Now, just in case you do not know,
we both got into "Toyotas" at the wrong time.

 

Very true, Very true.

 

I was referring to vehicle dependability, not warranty dependability. In JDP's 2015 vehicle dependability study, Toyota ranks 9th with 4/5 stars. Hyundai ranks 26 with 2/5 stars, two higher than Fiat.

 

I wonder if This is covered under the warranty...

 

LMAO Skrain that's funny stuff!!!

Okay, I'm double posting this....

Toyota has 5 of the top 10 spots...

 

Say what you want about Toyota, but their quality has been on the decline for a few years AT LEAST. I can not say I'm 100% satisfied with my truck after some of the failures I've had including one that left stranded on the side of the road.

I don't believe in product loyalty, your product and longevity speaks for itself. Much like actions speak louder than words. I feel like what they are doing as of lately is using subpar materials to build a vehicle, slapping their well known brand on it, calling it a premier vehicle built with "premier materials" and riding on their brand reputation to make money. You can cheat the public out of their money, you can only do it for so long. Which is why GM went bankrupt at one point.

Toyota is becoming the new GM. That is most likely due to the fact that they are IN bed WITH GM. Don't believe me, go look at the new Colorado/ Silverado and Tacoma power window master switches, power steering reservoirs etc.

If Toyota is using the same manufacturers and builders that GM is, what are the chances that they are assembling these new vehicles for them at the lowest bidder offer? (Something GM is very guilty of, and their plethora of Recalls, TSB's, and common failures speak for that.)

 

Toyota sales double what Hyundai sales with the warranty as is.
