What's going on at Hyundai Showroom
TV ads are popping up everywhere about how good the Hyundai cars. The car magazine often give them high marks too.
I was drawn by the Hyundai Sonata because of price, fuel efficiency, and it's ranked higher than Honda Accord and Camry in most criteria. I went to the show room and checked out the car.
In order to achieve the fuel efficiency, all modern cars are slopped so much now, the outward visibility is compromised if you are 6 ft tall. I missed the old Honda from the late 80's and early 90s. The low hanging double wishbone suspension, semi-upright windshield - ultra wide view in every direction. The closest thing to riding a motorcycle. I missed that very much.
