Love my Lil Truck!

This is one of the Most 'Fun to Drive' vehicles I've ever owned. Sporty, quick, responsive, and economic to drive. I also get loads of compliments on it.

This is a fun sporty vehicle that turns heads everywhere I go.

Fun and sporty vehicle that turns heads everywhere I go. Great on gas. The built in cooler in the truck bed is great for tailgating.

41000 miles later

This has been a great vehicle over all. Live in Ohio. It’s been to Florida, Arizona, and Tennessee. Comfortable, handles well, quiet, unassuming to law enforcement, handled 20 bags of mulch with no problem, lawn equipment, pressure washer and associated equipment. Complaints: the black chrome grill looks terrible due to road blast, the bulb seal on the tonneau cover is easily damaged and hard to replace, the bed needs to be deeper.

It is all paid for and I have no payments and I like it that way

I especially like the heated cool seats and heated steering wheel. Excellent handling I love the camera features all drive by itself.

Love this Trucklet

The first time I saw this vehicle, it was a '22 Blue Stone sitting in a dealership parking lot. I only saw the front and I was intrigued, when I saw that it had a truck bed, I did a deep dive. I ended up buying a '23 in Gray. I love how comfortable it is to drive and be a passenger in. I wouldn't have a problem putting kids in the backseat, and we did take a road trip with my parents and while they did not complain, I did not enjoy the back seat for a long period of time. The ride is smooth and the console is easy to use. I have used the blulink system a lot, especially for starting my car to cool it off in the desert heat. I have had a few problems: The finish on the dash randomly started peeling by the driver display. The tonneau cover is terribly difficult to open, and as an older woman with arthritic hands, it is annoying. The teenagers have requested a USB or USB-C port in the backseat to charge their phones.

Love it

I got my Santa Cruz because I needed a small truck to haul things like hay and feed but wanted the feel of an suv. I love pretty much everything about it and will drive it til it dies probably.
