I bought the Santa Cruz, and I love it. 28mpg city and 35 highway, and I can still pull 3500lb.
It's rated at 22 city 26 hwy, do you really get that much?
The super short bed looks a little less than useful but I do like the idea of an actually small truck because every truck these days is monstrosly large.
Yup, but it mostly depends on the road inclination. If there's a lot of uphill it's more like 26/30.
And the bed is pretty useful, especially with the tourneau cover you can get. I did end up getting a bed extender to let me carry stuff like plywood sheets.
It's really not bad. I've had people sit behind me (6'3") comfortably. It's actually the first vehicle I've driven where I had to scoot the seat up a bit.
I'm pretty sure it's just the Tuscon with a truck bed instead of a trunk.
