      I know, right. I guess it's better than "plain white."

    @nickr3441 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    BTW, I think you do a great job at these reviews. I have subed to you, and two others for car reviews. The two others are car journalist which I think means car companies give them cars to review. Whereas you go rent them, so you tell it like it is and have no bias. You have no affiliate with any company.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for the kind words. And you're right, I don't have any built in bias, but... I've noticed that whenever I'm overly negative about a car I do get some backlash in the comments. I try not to let that influence my opinions, but I do think about when I'm editing. I guess what I'm trying to say is, nobody's perfect.

    For 2019 the Tucson is getting a midcycle refresh with a new dashboard and exterior trim plus more features on high line trims. Though the base engine like in your car stays, the low fuel mileage rough 1.6 turbo and the troublesome dual clutch transmission will be replaced with a smooth larger 2.4 engine and a conventional transmission. Hyundai's thinking is that since the best selling medium suvs (Toyota Rav4 and Nissan Rogue) have non-turbo engines, real world consumers if given the choice prefer a larger non-turbo engine to a smaller turbo engine.

    • @BTC909
      @BTC909 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Any Hyundai or Kia with a DCT.
      Customer: When driving around town the transmission seems herky jerky.
      Service Writer: I had my best tech road test the vehicle & didn't experience any issues & this is "normal behavior".

    Excellent review...I prefer the Santa Fe Sport over this one, though. I am very impressed with the Hyundai and Kia quality lately. The channel has come very far from episode 1!!!

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. I really like KIAs. And thanks! I've been working hard, I'm glad you notice some improvement.

  • @jeepguy95
    @jeepguy95 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I drove a Tucson years ago, a 2014 model, in the midlevel SE trim... it was nice but felt a bit light, being based on an Elantra platform. Still a very nice little SUV. :)

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think "light" is a great way to describe the Tucson. It also feels hallow compared to other SUVs. I hope that makes sense.

  • @MoonInPisces1962
    @MoonInPisces1962 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you drive the "Sport" version with the 2.4 liter engine,
    the acceleration might be better. The "Sport" version also has
    the same 6-speed, automatic transmission.
    The 2.0 liter engine may not provide the best acceleration.
    However, this combination of engine and transmission have been
    used for several years and have proven their reliability in the
    Kia Soul "Plus" as well as the Hyundai Tuscon.

    I almost test drove one of these a few days ago when I had my sonata in for service but they wouldn’t let me because I wasn’t going to buy it I only wanted to see how it drove. Needless to say I’m never go to that dealer again.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Are you kidding me? That's crazy and stupid on their part. Maybe you would have bought it after a test drive. Dummies.

  • @patricktravelandcarvlogs680
    @patricktravelandcarvlogs680 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had to rent one as a replacement rental because i had a Dodge Grand Caravan rental with only 3,000 miles on it had a seized transmission so it died in me in a truck stop so I ended up driving this car

  • @pedrofernandez3893
    @pedrofernandez3893 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am renting one of these right now, I find it lethargic around town, you gotta either push the gas pedal quite a bit, or place it in sport mode. It's comfy and it does handle well, plus the screen doesn't seem like it was added on as an afterthought, like so many other OEM's do these days.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. It's a nice vehicle, but I'm not dying to rent it again. There's many other better opinions out there.

    The BT audio issue you faced is interesting, I had the same issue on a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. Seems like an issue Hyundai should have been able to iron out.

    • @BTC909
      @BTC909 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Could be his ASUS phone. If you never see an update be it an ASUS update, OS update, or Security Patch update wipe it and sell it.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is likely my cheap cell that's causing the issues, but it's still strange, because it hasn't happened with any of my other rentals recently. Just this one.

    Have you considered doing the occasional 3-4 minute video on the current stock you see on Enterprise locations. This would give an indication of what a person might expect to receive if they were renting a car on the near future of the video being posted
    Just a thought.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's an interesting idea, but the vehicles don't last long on the lot. Typically they're gone in less than a day. Unfortunately, by the time I posted the video most of the cars would be gone. Instead, I'm thinking about renting some cars off Turo.com. You can select specific cars there, so I might be able to get the cars people are asking for. But... it's not cheap. I was thinking about asking people for a little help with the cost via something like Patreon. I'm just not sure how that'd go over.

    • @andrewtate2380
      @andrewtate2380 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the reply, it's that I picked up on you saying you used to see lots of Grand Cherokee's but they have disappeared.And of course there is a constant turn over of stock.

  • @nickr3441
    @nickr3441 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fun fact about the parking break, either use it all the time or never use it. I have had my current car for about 4 years now(never use the parking break) and I parked on a hill acouple weeks ago, so i put the parking break on. I ended up snapping the cable. Dealer wants $500 to fix it lol.
    I said no thanks

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It broke!?! I mean... isnt that the one part of the car that should NEVER brake?

    • @brendame

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's kinda what I thought too. Actually, to be completely honest, I never thought I'd make it to ten reviews. I started doing this on a whim and calling the channel "100 rental cars" seemed like a good, aspirational name to use. It was almost a joke. But now that I've actually done 100, I can't imagine stopping.

    • @chocolatewheelchair
      @chocolatewheelchair 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oceanic Flight not really bro. Renting a car isn’t that expensive. Especially if you keep renting from the same company. Just saying.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Billy!

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      And I agree, I am pretty lucky that I get to rent these for work. Each one is about $35 to $55 per day depending on the time of year. I could probably afford to keep going if my job stopped having me travel so much....but I hope it doesn't come to that. My hope, however, is that the channel will continue to grow to the point where dealers and manufacturers might consider giving me free cars to review. We'll see. 🤞

    Trying to decide on a new family car. I'm 6'5", wife is 5'9" and we need something large enough to haul our giant babies 😂
    Something with some light off road ability, because camping and kayaking.

    • @100RentalCars
      @100RentalCars  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmm, nothing beats a minivan when it comes to babies (giant or otherwise). I fought against buying a minivan for a while...and lost...but now I freakin' love our Kia Sedona. It so much easier to get kids in and out of a vehicle with sliding doors. So that'd be my recommendation. Bite the bullet and look at a Kia Sedona, Chrysler Pacifica, or Dodge Grand Caravan. You should fit fine in all three and it'll be a great investment for your family. Good luck. And let me know what you choose!

    100 rental cars this is what happened to my grand caravan i was on the highway i rented this car from an airport location after a long flight i drove the car and noticed that when i was going 65 the van slows down to 55 and when i press the gas peddle the car kept struggling to accelerate and then it would stop accelerating and when I pressed the gas peddle it slowed the car down to 5 miles an hour and a bunch of warning lights came on so I decided to pull over and just as i get ready to pull over suddenly the van dies out in the middle of the road so i call roadside assistance and they eventually diagnosed my rented grand caravan as having a seized transmission i even tried poking the shifter with a rubber mallet to put it in park and it wouldn’t budge and enterprise towed me a new Hyundai Tucson with only a 1,000 miles on it they finally got the Tucson off the flat bed but they couldn’t move the grand caravan on the wrecker and they couldn’t so roadside assistance sent someone with an electric dolly to push the grand caravan on the flatbed please tell me what you think about what happened to my grand caravan rental?

      I know... I drive like too much of a grandma to do that. Plus, my camera is on a tripod in the backseat so I'm always worried it'll fall over if I drive too aggressively. I'm saving up for a GoPro that I can strap to myself when I drive. Hopefully, I can do a better job when I get that.

      @terri4233 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because it is the base model. This is not a Hyundai DEL PLUS. I know because I own a 2108 PLUS and it looks nothing like this. Mines beautiful and I love it. There is also a sport mode in the PLUS for better acceleration when needed.

  • @terri4233
    @terri4233 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is not an SEL PLUS. I have one and mine is loaded with extra features. It also has a sport mode for better acceleration when needing to pull out into traffic or the freeway. This is definitely a base model shown here. Please verify your information because you are making the model look very bad. Everybody looking for a Hyundai Tucson, please go test drive and disregard this video. Once you are in the car, you must definitely see a difference before even starting the car. Thanks for letting me vent. 😡
