Fun to Drive while providing the utility of a small "pick-up" truck.
My experience with my 2023 Santa Cruz as been very good. I have enjoyed the use of the covered bed for hauling many things associated with my gardening and other outside supplies at our home. It drives like a car and is really fun to drive. I appreciate the technology of the semi "self-driving" feature, which allows you to take your hands off the wheel for a temporary need, especially when making longer trips. There are only two things I would mention in way of improvement as follows:
1. I suggest that on future models try to make the cover on the truck bed water proof. It keeps about 90% of the water out of the bed when raining and/or getting it washed through a carwash.
2. The transmission seems to take a couple of seconds to move the car forward after changing gears. Although is not much delay, if you are in a tight spot in traffic at an intersection, for example, those couple of seconds could be the difference in a wreck happening.
Overall, I have been very satisfied with my Santa Cruz. If the transmission issue I mentioned should not be happening, please communicate to me and I will take it in to the dealer.
