Poor service at Simmons Rockwell

Bought new. At 1400 miles in shop twice and for 31 total days for an injector wiring problem. Car computer said were the problem was, but it took Simmons Rockwell all that time to find and fix it.

Exactly what I have expected thus far

Everything has been great thus far. My only "complaint" would be for things I knew going in: smaller truck bed, a comfy back seat, slightly less storage than my previous truck. So the fact that I bought this vehicle after factoring it all in speaks volumes. Reliability is the next key metric but I won't have a full answer for than until about 10 years from now.

Versatile and Able

The 2025 Santa Cruz accomplishes all that I deem important. Room in the comfortable interior. All of the gadgets you could ask for. The exterrior is very attractive and useful. The bed is big enough to meet my needs. Finally, FUEL Economy for a "truck" is phenominal!

All in all, this is a great vehicle. However, if you are looking to transport passengers in the back seats, I would not recommend this vehicle.

I love my Santa Cruz

After 25 years of driving a Dodge Ram, I downsized to this zippy fun smaller truck. I LOVE IT. The gas mileage is a bonus. I can still haul what I need in the back!
