Nice truck for suburban living but it is missing some features.
I like the ride and the bed size is perfect for me but there are some features that are missing. One of the biggest is no memory seats and mirrors. I share with my wife so we are constantly adjusting. There should be proximity sounds as you near obsticals, my last 3 vehicles had it and it is hard to get used to not being there. No power rear window, I used it a lot on my previous trucks. The sound system is ok but I wish it was better. The adaptive cruise control is way to slow to react to changes, when an obstical appears that requires slowing the vehicle reacts fairly well but when the obstacl moves out of the way it takes 6-8 seconds to resume the original speed. that is a lot of time at 75mph. The automatic braking is scary at times: on a 4 lane highway in the mountains, there was a sharper than normal curve in the highway, the sensor picked up the semi in the lane on my right side and slamed on the brakes at 60mph. both the semi and I were within the lines of the highway. The lane keep feature is not good, The stearing wheel vibration is so slight you don't even feel it most of the time. The technician told me it is working properly. The calendar does not work on the infotainment. when we are on long vacations we use a calendar a lot but we have to check the phone instead of the dashboard. I will buy a new vehicle in 2026 or 2027; I like the Santa Cruz but if some of these features are not added or not improved I will try a different brand.
