Has anyone taken delivery of a 2022 yet? We put a reserve in for a 2022 Limited last week and the dealer says it has an ETA for 8/11. The car has a VIN and is apparently at port in PA (USA).
 
I paid MSRP at a local dealer to me. Some dealers near DC were asking $5k-$8k over MSRP.
 
The closest dealership to me shows one on their website. It doesn’t explicitly say if it’s actually there or not. I may go there tomorrow to look at a Santa Fe so if I do and have time I’ll look.
 
Are ya going to reserve one?
I was planning on stopping by a Hyundai dealer today to test drive a Santa Fe Limited or Calligraphy (and make sure I can easily get in and out of one since I am fairly tall and at my age I don't bend as easily as when younger), but none of the dealers near me even have a single Santa Fe Limited or Calligraphy in stock according to their dealer websites. According the Hyundai website, all the silver exterior Santa Fe's that are at dealers or in transit to dealers (5 dealers in my area) only have a gray interior, so I am wondering if the Hyundai Southern Regional Distributor only orders silver Santa Fe's with a silver interior (and no black interior).

So now I am not sure that the Santa Fe's Limited or Calligraphy has better availability than the Palisade.

To make matters more complicated, yesterday I had to put on the emergency spare on my Hyundai Genesis due to a nail in one of my tires. Even though the tire has at least 35% tread left, no one will repair it because they say it too old. Even though the tire is old, my car has spent 99.9% of the time in my garage (no UV rays on the tires from the sun), and has always had 95% nitrogen in them (no significant oxidation from inside the tire). The tire dealers all say I will have buy 4 new tires because of the age of the tires (even I want to buy one new tire, they won't do it, and will only sell 4 new tires due the age of the tires). But even buying 4 new tires is a hassle because Costco says the tires I want are out of stock from Michelin (not just out of stock at that particular store).

So Palisade's are out of stock, Santa Fe's are out of stock, Michelin's and other tires are out of stock, new houses are out of stock, resale houses are out of stock. The whole f'ing world is out of stock. There is no way I am paying more than MSRP, and even that price makes me sick.

My 2009 Hyundai Genesis only has 70K miles on the OD and in the last year I only drove 2000 miles, and that included one 1000 mile road trip. I don't expect to increase my driving in the future. The engine is in perfect condition, and has never used a drop of oil in-between oil changes (Mobil 1 5W-30 EP).

There is a night and day difference between the Sante Fe and the Palisade. Price is higher but we’ll worth getting the Palisade. I drove both calligraphy models and chose the Palisade steel gray/ beige interior. I love it !! You were I’ll too
 
I reserved a 2022 Limited AWD that is scheduled for 8/12 in NC.
 
For a Palisade I’d just wait until these stock issues nationwide are fixed. Yea it could be a while, but there’s no way these things are worth paying crazy money over MSRP. That’s just my opinion of course, but you guys do what you think is right for you. I think they’ll always hold a better than most value compared to other Hyundai’s but these values they have right now won’t last forever. I’d just be very cautious about ending very upside down in a year or two. Top trim limited and calligraphy Palisades and Santa Fe’s are produced in smaller numbers than SELs and SEs so of course sell quick but there’s dealers near me that at least sell for MSRP when they get em. MSRP is still losing. To pay several thousand over that plus the interest and tax on it just seems nuts. Unless you’re in dire straits and needing a new vehicle now I’d hold off. But for those that just gotta have one and the money is no object then I certainly get that too. Buy smart gang.

Yup, that about covers it!

I'm much less worried about this than others, as I keep my cars for a long time (current car 12 years, one prior 9 years) Obviously, if it gets totalled in the first year or so, that's a different story. But my credit union charged me $199 (IIRC) for gap insurance, and I figured that was a fair bet.

They're actually doing you a favor. Your tires are both too old, and too worn out (20% left is the wear bars). Rubber degrades over time, even in your garage (mostly by ozone). I always replace my tires every 5 years, regardless of mileage. My family's (and my) safety is worth more than that to me :). And if I got a flat tire with that little life left (even if within 5 years of age), I wouldn't even ask for a patch, but that's just me. Finally, it's always worth asking for fresh tires when buying new tires (the DOT 4-number code denotes manufacturing date: week #, and year). Many discount places sell old tires, so beware of cheap ones. Anything more than a year, I pass.

Maybe I did not explain it correctly, but my tires had plenty of tread left. Plus, I will not exceed 2,000 miles per year in future years, and I was hoping to buy a new SUV, so I don't need a huge amount of tread.

I do understand that the rubber can wear out after a certain number of years, but there are absolutely no signs of aging on my tires, since they have had relatively little exposure to UV rays from the sun (due to low mileage and I park it in my garage). Plus, having nitrogen filled tires (like mine) goes a long way to extending the life of the rubber, because it virtually prevents moisture and oxidation from the inside of the tire.

But I went ahead and dropped $1,070 on a set of 4 Michelin Cross-Climate2 tires at Costco, including 4 new TPMS sensors. Just my luck that Costco is having a $150 off sale on Bridgestone tires this month, and the Michelins don't go on sale until September at Costco (Costco rotates their sale between Bridgestone and Michelin every two months).

Buying new (old stock) tires is not likely these days, as popular tire models are in short supply like everything else. I couldn't even get the Michelin models that I wanted because of supply problems from Michelin. It took several days just to get the Cross-Climate2's.
 
Has anyone taken delivery of a 2022 yet? We put a reserve in for a 2022 Limited last week and the dealer says it has an ETA for 8/11. The car has a VIN and is apparently at port in PA (USA).
We ordered a 2022 Palisades Calligraphy AWD back on May 29th, we have a delivery date of 8/20. Hoping this comes through for us.
 
We put a reservation on ours back in June. Currently expected by August 5th. We had understood we were getting a 2021, but the VIN provided to us is for a 2022 they have coming in with our desired spec. Can't wait to get it next week!!
 
I am not having high hopes for my August 11th delivery. Hyundai ships from Ulsan, KR and the only ships coming from there wont potentially be at the Philadelphia port until the middle of August. The dealer said it can take about 2 weeks to get to the dealership from the port as well.
 
We took delivery of ours (Moonlight/Beige) just yesterday (July 31, 21). Came in about five days earlier than the dealer expected (over a month after our initial date of delivery). So happy to have it and I've already coated all the leather surfaces with Gyeon Leather and snuck in a quick wash/decon and wax today. Have to wait until after the vacation to get the front end PPF'ed and ceramic coated. The wife hasn't even gotten to drive it yet cause I've been working on things with it nonstop this weekend. Can't wait to take it on a long road trip soon!
