Hyundai Tucson

[mazzipino]

I got free LTO at Hyundai Alabang and standard freebies included Tint and Matting. Just waiting for the unit to arrive.

Heads up, as of yesterday Laguna Binan (Areza Motors) had a black and a white GLS units available. They offered it to me but since they couldn't match our deal we declined. Not sure if it's still available as of now....

sa casa po sir para di sila aangal na voided warranty :p (which is hyundai alabang)

nadinig ko na pala yung tunog ng busina na kinabit - eto yung model (sound file download link is on the lower right of the page)

baka nga yun rin yung busina ng lumang tucson eh XD

and I think readily available siya (yung bosch horns) sa suking banawe/evangelista shops pero yun nga, sayang yung coverage ;p so konting tiis sa bulsa para mataboy yung mga pasaway na sumasakop sa daan...
at least tunog macho na :D

Maraming salamat, taintedwhistler, ....... pero teka.......walk-in ka ba or may appointmment ka prior to the installation?

walk in - ang talagang sadya ko sa pagpunta ko sa casa ay para makuha yung kulang na invoice extension letter... naisipan ko lang na "nandito na rin ako, might as well..." so ayun, tunog Expedition na :D

Mga bossing magandang brand din ng horns yung Hella Twin Tone at FIAMM Fanfarens

mas malakas at buo yung tunog nya keysa Bosch. Bosch gamit ko sa Trooper (medyo nahihinaan ako at matinis yung tunog). sa FD, Hella Twin Tone (ang lakas at mababa yung tone) yung sa Explorer naman, FIAMM yung stock horns nun (halos same sound lang ng Hella)

whitebug & Lui, kelan dadating yung GLS 4x4?

saan na casa sir? d na po ba nila binaklas bumper mo? maayos naman po ba pag kkabit sa mga binaklas? tnx tnx

Wala paring discount sir eh pero LTO reg pumayag kasi family friend yung dealer. Eh may 50% refund kami dito sa office sa LTO reg so yung monetary equivalent nalng sana yung hihingiin ko sa kanila. Ang standard freebies talaga ay matting, seat cover at generic tint. Ok na ba kung 3M tint, at busina idagdag ko? Magkano po ba HID?

Merry Christmas nga pala sa lahat.

yng dealer ko nag commit ng 3yrs LTO, seat cover, matting and tint. and then later on i realized na d na ata kailangan ng seat cover kasi naka semi leather na sya. ewan ko nalng sa dealer kung saan sya kakuha ng seat cover na kinumit nya. =)

palagyan mo sa kanila ng HID,3M at Busina as freebies or LCD monitor radio.

How much ba yung HID? Iniisip ko nga kung 3M nalng na tint pero hindi magic tint tapos HID and busina. Pero sabi ng kaopisina ko mahal raw HID past 10K raw yun. Tama ba sya?

Did the dealer accept 3M tint & the horn as freebies?

Haggling pa sir pero mukhang papayag na...sana hehe.

How does the 2010 Tucson 2.0 GLS compare against the 2010 Honda CRV 2.0 V AT? Can anyone make a side by side comparison? I'm shopping for a new SUV to replace my 2005 Toyota Fortuner that was a Typhoon Ondoy victim.

I visited Hyundai Shaw to check out the new Tucson but I still could not pull the trigger on shelling out the P10,000 reservation fee. Also, can anyone suggest what's the best color for the Tucson? I've only seen the phantom black and have no idea on the other color choices. Can anyone help me please?

I like all the colors except for the blue one, it doesnt seem to fit an SUV but i wouldnt say it looks bad either. I think the nicest one is the Silky Bronze, though that seems to be the most popular choice according to the orders placed for it in the dealers, super haba ng pila for it. I personally placed an order for the gray titanium since it looks sleek and i know not many people will place an order for it. My two cents.

HID na taiwan i think cost mga 4-5K depende sa brand. pero coming from casa themselves tingin ko taga na sila sa price.hehe.

btw, 2009 tucson won the SUV of the year 2009!

[junsd]

kamusta naman power ng new Tucson? di ba underpowered yong 2.0?

dami nadin tuscon ix dito sa dasma cavite. ganda siya. usually silver meron din black. somehow the front reminds me of a cobra. (the snake not the one from ford)

[pudspuds]

kamusta naman power ng new Tucson? di ba underpowered yong 2.0?

Tucson ix 2.0L - 166 PS * 6000 / 20.10 kg-m * 4600
CRV 2.0L - 150 PS * 6200 / 19.40 kg-m * 4200
Forester 2.0L - 150 PS * 6000 / 20.00 kg-m * 3200
Escape 2.3L - 157 PS * 6000 / 20.70 kg-m * 4500
RAV 4 2.4 L - 170 PS * 6000 / 22.84 kg-m * 4000
Outlander 2.4 L - 170 PS * 6000 / 23.04 kg-m * 4100
CX-7 2.5 L - 163 PS * 6000 / 20.90 kg-m * 2000

Looking at those numbers, I don't think that the 2.0 Theta-II is underpowered compared to its peers. Although maximum torque it a bit high on the rpm range, the power starts at about 2k rpm and it is very usable in stop-and-go traffic.

~~~

Update on FC, right now the reading is 11.0 L/100km mixed city and highway driving (max speed of 140 kph, SLEX Southbound). I filled the tank with Petron XCS as well. I think we can consider EDSA and Commonwealth Ave traffic at 2:30 AM as highway driving - well, technically they ARE highways but normally you spend more time in a bumper-to bumper traffic during the daytime. I also alternate between D and S modes (for some reason, D mode won't shift to 6th and I suspect it won't unless you hit high rpm or the redline at 5th gear.) Based from my observation, you can't shift to 6th unless you reach about 65-70 kph in 5th but once you are in 6th, it will stay there until such time that the engine will is in danger of stalling OR you hit the brakes at speeds lower that 60 kph.

For everyone's benefit, I might suggest that we also post which brand of fuel we use. Napansin ko kasi sa Crosswind namin na mas maganda yung FC pag Petron Diesel Max kung ikukumpara sa iba.

And on another note, here are more pics, posted on the other thread.
