Well I am sure glad I decided to post in here, seems like there is a lot more to towing then I expected, and honestly If I had know before purchasing my Santa Fe I would have gone with the XL model with a 5000lbs tow capacity....Well, I will switch it in 5 years or so, just got to be a bit more patient :-)....in the meantime I will probably get a Viking Popup or a Flagstaff since it seems to be the brands that are available in my area...
Here is a thought... just a thought... It may be worth going to talk to the Dealer about getting the XL model now.. It may be cheaper to do that and go straight to a TT you want than spending 5-10k on the Pop up.. losing 5k in trade in a few years when you do get that TT, plus losing 10 plusK on the current Santa Fe in five years. You may find very little difference trading now.
(I wish my Kia had a 5000 lb tow rating!!!!)
Just another thought.
Thanks!
