    Depending from what perspective we are looking at....
    There will always be Toyota over Hyundai any time of the day....
    If you looking to buy cheap and think that lifetime warranty that doesn't cover how bad your battery gets over time....
    Go for Hyundai

    Ugh..you again? Can you stop blatantly trolling on these threads please? Especially ones that are specific to Hyundai? From your recent posts, it seems like this has become your life's work lately...:whistle:

    I might have used different words but I don't see this as trolling as much as raising questions that in some cases are difficult to answer. I would use engineering terms and focus on harder sources like SAE and other professional paper publications. With hopefully, rare exception, I try to give the benefit of the doubt but you may want to test the effect of using 'Ignore User.' It has a similar effect to turning up the squelch on a CB radio and filtering out 'noise.'

    Good idea! Frankly, I didn't even realize there is an ignore user option. Thx for the tip.

    unfortunate that she decided to compare plug in vs straight hybrid.

    Superficial review that could have been done from reading brochures. Has no driving or MPG insights.

    Not much of an article. No discussion of reliability. No mention of mileage. Pretty useless...
