The wife and I don’t get the same days off so progress is slow. Saturday we’re going to Toyota to check out the 4Runner and an Fj Cruiser, as well as a 2020 highlander as the new redesign interior is leagues better than what just left. Sunday is Chevy to go test the Zr2 (probably v6) and Monday hopefully go see the Ford Flex and an f350 (wife’s dream vehicle, it’s a no but we gotta look anyways).
We did test drive and price out both a Kia Sorento and Hyundai Santa Fe. Both had every option you could ask for and both came to just under 50k without haggling.
- both vehicles drive the same. Sorento has v6 versus the Santa Fe 2.0t
- Sorento seats 7 where the Santa Fe only 5
- Santa Fe interior seems a bit nicer, less hard plastic
- the buying experience at Kia was 100000x better than Hyundai, to the point where even if we liked the Santa Fe more we’d give our money to Kia
We wanted to look at the telluride but they sold all of them, and the used one they just got in was taken home by one of the managers.
I explained to my wife about resale value and such, and we plan to use the Sorento as the baseline for “at this price point, we can get this much car”
