    Most Excellent Road Trip

    The wife and I recently completed a round trip from Orange County, CA to Denver, CO over the course of 8 days. Overall we averaged about 27 mpg for the 2500 miles which is not to shabby considering all the 2 lane highways and mountain driving we did. The trip to Denver was mostly freeway with...

    My ride has been feeling terrible ever since my road trip.

    Hi guys, ever since I went on my last road trip to Canada in July (about 4000 miles) my car has not felt the same. It feels jittery and wobbly (tires) could they be unbalanced? I just had them do a tire rotation and balance at oil change about a week ago but maybe I should bring it back and...

    First Road Trip - Compliments & A Question

    Well I just completed my first road trip in my Genesis, took it from the San Fernando Valley to Palm Springs and back, with a little local driving while there. I was totally blown away with the car, from how comfortable it was to how efficient it was. The only other car I've owned is a 2005...

    Weekend road trip - mileage and cruise control "thing"

    Took another short road trip this weekend. On the way down I64 Thursday evening I topped over a little hill and saw there was water running across the road in front of me. I was in cruise control at 75 mph when the car hit the water. It immediately hydroplaned and started sideways (just a...

    Canada trip ahead

    We've been to Niagara Falls, Toronto and Montreal. Thinking about heading to either Ottawa, or Quebec City, in early summer. Which city would you Canadians suggest we visit first? We're leaning toward the French experience.

    Advice on Long Road Trip

    Need some help! I am stationed in Germany and while I was on leave i got a great deal on a 2012 Black on Black R-Spec (39K out the door). So needless to say I bought it. I will be returning to the states for a few weeks next month and wanted to know if anyone had a great route to take from...

    500 mile trip

    I just drove 250 miles each way, mostly freeway in my 4.6 genny. Round trip MPG 27.2, and that's with 4 people in the car, going between 75-80mph. The ride was very quiet unless the pavement was rough. It was mostly comfortable except for bumpy surfaces in which case a Lexus or Toyota Camry...

    Hey everyone, I am debating about whether or not I should drive my brand new 2012 Genesis to Connecticut or Rent a car, I live in Florida so this will be a total of 2,200 miles road trip in my car. The main concern isn't the mileage but more of the rock chips and such. What do you think I...

    Should I go on a road trip with XM problems?

    So long story short, the dealer still hasn't fixed or diagnosed the cause of my 2010 4.6 XM radio problem, and they want the car for at least a full day (with no loaner replacement since according to them, its not a "driveability" issue) so that they can troubleshoot it with Hyundai HQ...

    Equus Trip Report

    First, please excuse any typos. I know how to spell and use proper grammar, but I'm still getting used to this iPad. Secondly, for those that don't know, I'm coming out of 2009 Genesis w/Tech. We didn't have Smart Cruise Control back in the old days (for example), so when I extol it's virtues...

    Observations of my Genesis after 1400 mile Road trip.

    Observations of my Genesis after 1400 mile Road trip. 1.) Seats were very comfortable driving over 500 miles a day. I love this car even more after the flawless road trip. The Trunk was huge and helped a lot as we had a lot of stuff! 2.) Smart Cruise Control is very nifty and very smart. It...

    Car Trip In Winter

    What idiot (me) takes car trips in the WINTER? Well cold, but so far, not so bad. Left Florida a couple weeks ago, about the time of the freezes, and went to my "3rd" home in Roswell. Weather was not too bad, other than the dust storm a few days ago, but then, it got COLD. Left Roswell...

    Trip computer tripping?

    I have noticed two things about Average MPG mode data displayed by the trip computer. The first one may be by design, but the second definitely looks like a bug (hopefully it does not indicate anything more serious). 1) The collected data used to compute the average MPG is discarded after...

    Trip meter - i can't track 2 trips at the same time

    :(I'm embarrassed to admit that I probably am not smart enough to figure out how to use the trip meter to track two trips at the same time. It seems like whenever I reset one trip, it resets all or part of all trips. I love the display, its well laid out, but I just can't figure out how to do...
