I FINALLY got rid of the Tiburon. After all the grief that car gave me, I was finally able to trade it in for a good amount and get a relatively new car. I ended up purchasing a 2004 Dodge Stratus SXT; Light Blue Pearlcoat; 2dr; really friggin nice in other words. I haven't taken any pics, but when I do, I may or may not post them up since I don't really post anymore. However, I do have one final pic with the Tiburon.



So, good luck building the Hyundai community... I for one, will never purchase a Hyundai ever again, unless they can some how reach the abilities of the other car manufactures out there.

So long ya'll.

I really don't think you got anything better. Dodge has given more problems to people I know than Hyundai ever has. Maybe you just had some crappy luck. :\ Either way, good luck. They're pretty sharp cars.

Good luck with the new car man. I always loved your car... perhaps we'll see it back here with a new owner. Drop in from time to time, or drop me an PM, and we'll let you know if it turns up!

LOL

One last parting shot at Hyundai eh? Remember, almost EVERY FRIGGING ISSUE YOU HAD with that car was your own damn fault.

Hyundai has far surpassed almost every other manufacturer out there in quality and price, including Dodge for SURE.

Hope your new car shits on you hard.

I usually dont bash on other cars because all manufacturers have their own issues. However, I'll actually step in this one time and give some criticism. One of my good friends works for a Dodge dealership, and he has told me that customer bring back the new Stratus' more times than he can count. If you dont think you're gonna have any issues with it, then good luck. The biggest problem with them are the transmissions, and if you think Hyundai has bad wheel bearings....wait until you see how many times you have to change the wheel bearings on your Dodge. I'm not saying that ALL Stratus' are bad, but going by my friend that works for a Dodge dealer....I'll take his word that they're not the best cars on the road, in Maintenance terms.

Hope you're car is different though, and have better luck than most people. smile.gif

10 memebers of my family work for one of the largest Dodge dealers in the state of Maine. My Uncle is the service department manager. Let's just put it this way... he'll be employed for a long time!
Good luck with that.
Oh ya I forgot, none of them drives a Dodge.
