Mazda3 now Maverick soon

I parked beside a Frontier the other day. Still would go with the Maverick
I used to have a frontier and loved it... but the gas milage was terrible and it didn't like the highway very much. Other than maverick I considered (and if dealer tries to force me to pay over the msrp as promised) I will consider again, Ridgeline, Colorado or frontier. All good trucks... all $10k more than the Maverick with 10 less mpg's

I actually like that color of the santa cruz. But maverick just better looking overall, and seems a better value. My altas blue maverick is in production now.

I actually was looking into both but decided on the Maverick b/c the Santa Cruz is priced too high for what you get. If they wanted to compete with the Maverick they needed to come in at a lower price point not higher. If i got a Santa Cruz with all of the options I got on my Maverick it would be over $40k with taxes.

Santa Cruz is over priced. Local dealers asking over msrp with lots of dealer installed options pushing the price way over msrp! I'll wait for my Maverick!

I personally think the Santa Cruz is better looking but too expensive. Unfortunately I think the Maverick looks like it was designed in the 1990s compared to the SC.

I believe Hyundai is slow on the draw to fix problems. I had a 2021 Kona with less than 10,000 miles on it that had a recall (possible fire). Hyundai could not give me a date for a fix. I traded for a Honda Civic. I am now waiting on my Maverick. I have a better chance of meeting the Easter Bunny!
