I went Laughlin. The place kinda small huh. I was looking at the small step ladders.
I saw the cargo mat but it didn't have price and I didn't ask.

Was also looking at the mats. All have two big ones and 2 small rectangular ones. Since I wanted two big ones for the back wud the big ones also work for the back?
Didn't realise mats so expensive to. Confused

he said that only three things are different in the new models and you must have the 'eye' to notice the differences...

1. the inside cover of the door is no longer black w/ red..its now just black
2. the indicator light is now amber
3. the little 'tuscon' sign to the front is now shaped a little different

nothing much to bother with if you ask me and there is no difference in the price from the old model... Laughing

Hey DW, if you want reverse sensors, call Hamza (Alarmania). He did both of our SGVs - Clean and professional installation. PM if interested.

i hope that the budget on the 22nd does not affect the price i have to pay. Confused

N&M is putting in the sensor for us but the sales rep did say that they have contractors who they cld put us on to who wld do it for a cheaper price than N&M.

Once you have the proforma, its good for a certain amount of time I believe, so you would be ok.

I will need to go in and see what kind of sensors they are putting in now since they have that stuff now..thanks.

Hi my Tucson people Smile

So with all this talk on the increase in Premium gas price I have a question.

Can super be used in the Tucson? I know most of you probably have diesel but you might still know.

Yay ..I heard they might have increased the price of diesel as well, glad they did not...well at least for now Razz

I can only imagine the fuel bill now for the gas based Tucs for someone who does highway runs regularly.

So here's another question.

This morning on 95.5fm I hear Inshan Ishmael say tht RORO dealer have a quota of vehicles they can bring in for the year.
He also said they only allowed to bring in gas vehicles and all the vehicles use premium.

So I was wondering, all the RORO Tucsons tht come in are gas?

I believe so, unless the RORO ones that are diesel dont have the "CRDi" badge on the back.

Gosh the increase because of the MVT is going to hurt.

As for the south to POS run everyday (and weekends too), I know it well....I am just happy they did not raise the price on diesel..yet Confused

well spoke to the sales rep and he said that once we are buying one of the vehicles parked at Mid centre mall, we won't have to pay the MVT...that means we may have to take any colour we get, which is fine cause the MVT may work up to an extra $8K-$10K... Confused

DW at least you have diesel...gemini and i wld have to deal with premium price... Neutral

Yeah, I know what you mean. The difference in diesel was a bit, but with the amount of driving I do, it was working out cheaper in the long run to go diesel.

Hottgirl you have to take gas or you could take diesel?
In my case I had to take gas.

Its averaging to be an extra $40-$50 for each full up.
I just think twice abt driving around to much when not at work or school which are a must.

well diesel is over the budgeted amount, so we have to take gas....

normally with our B14 we have to fill up every other day, i wonder how often we'd have to fill up with the Tuscon? and i am sure that we'll be driving the B14 when we are not going to work!

Actually, I had a B14 and when compared to using the Tucson its not much more gas being used. It just cost more to fill up as I guess its a bigger tank.

Not sure if I observed wrong. Laughing
