Hello All.
Just bought and brought home a 2023 Calligraphy Awd in Steel Graphite and Black. It was a tough find and need a bit of luck to get one in my area...remote NW Montana. Drove 5 hours to Spokane.
Sadie, as my daughter has named it, replaces a 2020 Subaru Ascent Ltd with 38k that has been in the shop for 2 months waiting on a transfer case assembly deemed unsafe and 2 recalls that do not have parts or solutions. No ETAs from Subaru. It was our main travel vehicle.
This is my second Hyundai I have owned. My first was a 2016 Hyundai Tucson 2.0 CRDi (Diesel) Elite Awd we had in New Zealand. Best car ever. Too bad I couldn't bring it back with me...right hand drive.
I am really looking forward to reading up and contributing. First may be to test fit my Black Rhino Sandstorm 18x8 with 265/60r18 Yokohama G056s that I had on the Ascent. Want to check if I need a lift. Here's to hoping.
My other vehicles that I am enthusiastic about include:
2003 GMC Yukon XL Denali w/290k - Snow/towing beast and near complete project
1962 Oldsmobile Starfire Convertible w/13k - All original
Cheers

Wife and I both retired and a new vehicle was on our bucket list. Always a bow tie person but after a trip with friends we were sold on a Palisade. Purchase a new 2024 Palisade fwd sel premium on Aug. 24 have 800 miles on it and both of us agree its the best car we have ever owned. looking forward to a lot of great years!
Kay from SC. Just purchased my 2025 Night edition Calligraphy. I traded my 23 SEL premium Palisade for the Calligraphy. Only disappointment was the "suede" seats. Definitely a downgrade in my opinion but wasn't a deal breaker. There were too many other fantastic features for the seats to be a deal breaker but I do think they need to rethink that idea. Something as beautiful as the Calligraphy shouldn't have cloth/suede/Alcantara whatever you call it seats.
