looking to buy and wanted Some opinions. Looking at Rouge ..Sportage ..Tuscon...or similar vehicles Any help would be great. Thanks
I did end up liking the Hyundai Sonata over the Kia Optima (sedans) but it was not by much.
I love my Subaru Forester. It has made me pretty darn loyal to the brand.
We are on our second Equinox also and really enjoy driving it. My husband is 6'4" and there is plenty of room for him even in the back seat. My son who is 6'2" has plenty of room sitting in the back seat behind my husband when he is driving. That's one of the reasons I like it, back seat leg space.I'm on my second Chevy Equinox and love it. DH had a GMC Terrain and also loved it, but it was virtually the same car. The Terrain has a few more bells and whistles being a GMC, but to me it wasn't worth the price difference. But with the Equinox, I get great gas mileage and love the space it has.
No surprise you liked them almost equally. They're sisters. Built on the same platform with a ton of shared components. Hyundai and Kia put their individual "window dressing" on each, but they're the same DNA.
Why do you love it? My dh and I are looking at either the Forester or the Outback but they both look so small to me and I am not sure I want one. The plus side on them is that they get better gas mileage than a mini van or my car.

My gas mileage has been great plus it has a wonderful safety rating. It rides very smooth, much better then similar vehicles I test drove while looking. It has more then enough cargo space for me and the back seats fold down nice and flat if more is needed. I also love having the all wheel drive all the time.Why do you love it?
