I own a 2007 Hyundai Veracruz with just over 520,000 miles. Aside from regular replacements, I've never had the engine or automatic transmission serviced. I'm very satisfied with my car

By far the best is the Hyundai Palisade. Hyundai Group is really on a roll lately; they are making hit after hit!

The Hyundai Palisade Hybrid is the one to get. They did a great job with the refresh and I'm happy they finally brought a hybrid to the model. We're going to wait and see what the 27 Talluride Hybrid looks like before pulling the trigger
