Hi,
I'll keep this intro line short. Literally just explain things you love and hate about your car.
I'll start by doing that for the Santa Fe.

Things I hate:
1. Wheelspin because FWD
At the gate of a wet driveway I was pulling out of, there's a small incline which the car has to climb over. There was a lot of mud in that incline because it had just rained and I wasn't able to build up speed, so the car sort of got stuck. I gave it some throttle, and all I got was wheelspin and rolling back. I tried again and I wheelspinned my way out. If my car had been a 4WD, wheelspin would have been minimal and there wouldn't have been so much traction loss.

I caught the whole thing on dashcam. You'll see and hear it starting from 11 seconds into the video until the end.


2. The shape of the key
I've had friends tell me stuff like "that looks like a... *points at crotch area* " after seeing the key to the car. They're talking about the plastic part of the key, which, according to them, looks like the tip of the male organ. As much as I'd like to disagree with them, I can't. It's not the best key design, and it surely doesn't look appropriate for a car like the Santa Fe. Furthermore, it's the same old generic design they used on all their cars, which means the Santa Fe literally has the same key design as the Accent, and these cars are worlds apart by classification and price range. Simply put, the key looks cheap, and I don't think that represents a Santa fe really well.

Things I love:
1. Comfortable ride
The 2009 Santa Fe is arguably one of the most comfortable cars from Hyundai. If you fall into a pothole, you don't feel like you've grown 2 inches shorter as other cars do. It's got a softer suspension than Hyundai's other cars. There's not much road noise on the tires either.

2. Overall design
While the design of the 2nd generation Santa Fe may not be impressive today, it's surely better than the design of most Hyundai cars of that generation. I admit, it's not beautiful, but it's not ugly either. It's right there in the middle, and that's why I love it. It doesn't draw much unnecessary attention.

my dad car got an oil change so we got a loaner from the dealership to match his car value.
It was a 2017 Cadillac CTS Luxury ($58,000)

Pros: Nice that car turns off when your foot is on the brake, looks beautiful, nice heating/cooling seats, nice massaging seats, Very fast 4G hotspot internet
Cons: rearview camera is pretty low quality
