I think this was a dependable car, overall. We took it on a long road trip when my kids were younger and it was comfortable for everyone. We went through some hot climates and I didn't feel like air conditioning was able to keep up when things got really hot. We had plenty of trunk space though and were able to spread out easily.

This is a fantastic family car. The interior is beautiful and has held up really well, even with two young children. I love the versatility of the third row or having the roomy trunk space. It is so easy to convert the third row to the trunk, too; I can do it in under 30 seconds. The tech specs on it are also really nice. I never knew I cared about having a navigation system, but it is really well done and includes traffic info and points of interest. I love my Santa Fe, and am so happy I get to drive it every day!
