Santa Cruz review

I do like the Santa Cruz. The style, storage, acceleration, and electronic are superb. If I were to make some changes I would ask for a little more leg room in the rear seats, a fold down back seat to created a table of the rear seats, and lastly more attachment points on the pickup area to place and lag down items on top of the roll up cover. I added side rails.

Things changed

Not as impressed with 2025 as I was with 2024.

Great Truck but Could Be Awesome

Love it but would like power rear window to allow ability to handle longer items. Fog lights would also be a great addition. Like a mini Starlink option

Scrappy (our Car/Truck's Name)

I love the design. I think it's smart and stylish. I find myself spotting everyone of them that drives by.

New car

A few things I'd change if I could. Door's are heavy and cumbersome. The heater/defroster fan is LOUD and it turns itself up to high all the time. The speed it takes off at and when it shifts is not at all what I'm used to. The brakes seem off, occasionally squeaks when backing out of my driveway, and there seems to be pedal fade when stopped at lights. The rear suspension makes a strange sound occasionally at right-hand turns. Sounds like something is rolling around the bed. I've looked nothing is there.

Not bad

My views on the car is a little obscured as I’m coming from a Santa Fe calligraphy. Having a premium stereo and more power. I find myself reaching for those things in the Santa Cruze. But compared to my Ford maverick I find it a little more comfortable and roomie.
