    According to Reuters, Hyundai will be introducing a new Sonata in 2014. Hyundai CEO Kim Choong-ho revealed the product update plans at an industry meeting in Seoul, South Korea.

    The current Sonata has become the brand's biggest seller in the U.S. and the third best seller in Korea since going on sale in both countries. The Sonata has also helped propel Hyundai into one of the major players in the U.S.

    Choong-ho also told Reuters that a new Genesis will be arriving sometime in late 2013.

    I wonder if this is 'new' as in an MCE of the current car or an actual generational change. The 2 previous generations of Sonata each lasted 5-7 years with an MCE each.

    The Sonata has to be a refresh, 2014 makes sense for an MCE. Probably a tweak of the front end, and perhaps an 8 or 9 speed transmission to max out fuel economy. A new Genesis already seems surprising because the car isn't that old. But considering they went from nothing toa pretty good RWD sedan, I look forward to what they do in generation 2.

      Toyota News: 2027 Toyota Highlander EV: Specs, Range, Price & Trim

      By smk4565 · Posted

      Grand Highlander is slightly bigger, but still close enough in size that you wouldn't need both if they had the same powertrain.

      yes exactly. And if you think about it, because the highlander and grand highlander are now about the same size, this is effectively the only model that can be had in EV, Hybrid, or just gasoline.

      Only if you're a rapist or Pedo! Those seem to be a requirement with the current administration of Idiot47. Never flew on them, I not really heard much good from folks except if your just focused on price.

      What I was really going to post ... This is more of a QUESTION than it is a random post. Have any of you flown on the lesser known airlines like Frontier, Allegiant, etc.? - - - - - I flew on Spirit only once and surprisingly got a good fare from Pensacola to South Florida (Lauderdale, in this case).  It was about $105 with the bag underneath and a window seat.  I got lucky that time.  It was cheaper than driving and less tiring. What about Frontier and Allegiant?  They initially display a favorable price with zero add-ons.  But, by the time you add a rollaboard and a bag underneath, does it come out to about what the legacy carriers might charge?  I always get turned off when I check out Frontier or Spirit, only to find that it's not as cheap as it looks and I don't get miles credited to a significant account. As for Southwest, they're just like the other carriers now ... you pay for bags, good seats, etc. Help needed with the "other" cheapies ... especially Frontier.  Thanks.
