2008 Hyundai Entourage Minivan Silver 121k Miles Runs Great on 2040-cars
Noblesville, Indiana, United States

This is a FANTASTIC running vehicle. I work nights. We had -40 temperatures this winter, and it sat outside in the elements while I worked at night. It never hesitated to fire right up even in -40F. We also had record snow fall for us this winter, and again, this van handled tremendously well in all that snow and ice. I'm very hesitant to let go of this vehicle as it has really proven its worth this year, but, we don't need 3 vehicles. The local Kia dealership offered me $5000 for it. It does have a few small issues. There is a scrape on the rear panel of the passenger side. See the pics. There is a small chip on the bottom of the driver's side front windshield. It is not in the main field of vision. This happened a year ago, and it has not offered to worsen even after our -40 temps this winter. The second row, driver's side power sliding door doesn't work on occasion. It is intermittent. It will work fine for days on end, and then it will not want to close. We have just turned the power doors off when this happens and used them as regular, manual sliding doors. It starts working again on its own. I have not asked about the cost of repairing this as it never really bothered me that much. We will change the oil in it and rotate the tires before you pick it up. We replaced the rear brakes about 6 months ago. The tires are about a year old. This has a lot of great features for an even better price! CD, am/fm, cruise control, audio controls and cruise control on the steering wheel, power driver's seat, power door locks, dual power sliding doors, power windows, the second row windows come down also, dual ac/heat w/separate ac/heat controls in the rear, lots of cup holders and storage compartments, vanity mirrors, third row seats stow 'n go, power charging ports (only the cig lighter variety, no usb or ac ports), luggage roof rack, and the tray in between the 2 front seats lowers if you want to put something skinny down there. The second row bucket seats are supposed to be removable, but we have not figured out how they come out. Please ask any questions before bidding. I have listed this as 121000 miles. It actually has less than that on it, but I will be driving it until it gets a bid/buy it now, or I sell it locally. Once the auction has a bid/buy it now, I will park it, as it then belongs to someone else. $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction end through Paypal. The vehicle must be picked up, and the balance paid within 10 days of the end of the auction. I am not interested in trades. Buyer is solely responsible for picking up van. I will work with a shipping company if that is how the buyer arranges for pick up. I will not arrange pick up/shipping for you. |

Hyundai's rakish HND-9 concept has lots of Seoul
Thu, 28 Mar 2013Hyundai has unwrapped the HND-9 Sports Coupe Concept at the 2013 Seoul Motor Show. The design study is intended to give the world a glimpse at what Hyundai has planned for the look of its future products - an evolution of the automaker's current Fluidic Sculpture design language.
With classic front-engine, rear-wheel-drive proportions, the HND-9 looks great, and engineers graced the concept with a 3.3-liter turbocharged, direct-injection engine good for 364 horsepower. An eight-speed automatic transmission shuttles that thrust to the rear wheels, while touches like butterfly doors give the machine a bit of flair.
Indoors, the HND-9 features seats built with a special mesh that changes colors depending on the viewer's angle. Designers modeled the cabin after a cockpit for a close, sporty feel. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Hyundai Veloster Turbos strut their SEMA stuff
Thu, 07 Nov 2013Hyundai brought a pair of very yellow Velosters to this year's SEMA Show. The first is the car you see above - the Veloster Hylighter. Built in a partnership with aftermarket accessory supplier EGR Group, it's based on a Veloster Turbo, but has been extensively modified for its trip to Vegas.
The paint, a custom color called Yellowcake, a type of uranium powder used to prepare fuel for nuclear reactors, certainly catches the eye. And if for some reason it doesn't, black graphics and a LED light bar on the roof most certainly will. An EGR widebody kit has been fitted for an even bigger visual impact, while the DPE three-piece wheels add some flair. The cabin sports a pair of Takata racing seats and harnesses, as well as a roll cage from Creations n' Chrome.
The engine is an uprated version of the turbocharged, 1.6-liter engine found in the standard Veloster Turbo, but it's been fitted with an AEM intake and a MagnaFlow exhaust, for a bit of extra oomph. A coil-over suspension from ARK, an AEM strut-tower bar and Toyo Proxes R888 tires afford a bit more handling potential for the VT, while a Brembo brake package can bring things to a rapid halt.
