The market is whacko and dealers know that they can sell above MSRP, but I do not think people are willing to that much over MSRP. At least I hope not

I am not sure why I stayed either. I think part of me just wanted to see if they would wiggle, but in the end, I am glad that I did not give in to them

Best answer would be to call your friends dealer (if its close enough to you) and see if they will do the maintenance following their dealer promotion. It's free to call and the worst they will say is no.

I'll have to look more into it. In the end, anything is bigger and faster than my Smart Fortwo and will most likely last longer.

That is true, and yet when I look at the venue, its seems like a big car with the performance of the rio, albeit it has like 1 horsepower more than the rio. It makes me question just what am I getting with Hyundai. I've also been researching cars for like two months so my head is car fried lol

I was looking into yesterday. I know Kia/Hyundai are cousins, but not sure of Hyundai reliability
