I personally drive a 2006 Hyundai Tucson. We have not had one single problem with it in the 3 years we have driven it. The only thing that I would complain about is the fuel economy with the 6 cylinder engine, not too good at all. I have had several friends move from the Honda CRV to the Tucson and they have all had wonderful experiences with the Tucson over the CRV. Five years ago I would have said to buy the CRV, but the Santa Fe is now rated higher than the CRV for the 2009 model year and the Tucson is a rated a little behind the CRV. If your only concern is the gas mileage then buy a CRV it comes with a little 4 cylinder motor that is quite underpowered, but you will save lots on gas. If you want reliability for a fraction of the cost of the Honda, then buy the Tucson. Notice that I am not slamming the CRV, but you get more for your money in the Tucson. The main thing for me when I bought the Tucson was that it was much quieter on the road with wind etc. than the Honda. We found that the HOnda was quite noisy. Good luck.

Hyundais are good cars, Kias are good cars, Hondas are good but too expensive. Out of the three I would pick Kia Sorento because it looks the best, they are all dependable.

If you want to know everyone at the dealership on a first name basis including the owners kids, buy a Hyundai or a Kia. However, if you want to be there to congratulate the owners grandson for being promoted to ceo of the company, then get the Honda.

Skip the Kia, they are trash. The Honda are usually good cars, but are pricey. I would go with the Hyundai!
