Topic: 2011 Hyundai Sonata

Well, 10 days in and there are a couple of niggly little things that bug me about the new Sonata.  The dimmer switch doesn't dim all dash and console lights....still 4/5 bright led lights on...when I want to dim, I want to dim!  Gas guage has 12 bars that disappear one at a time as gas depletes.  But when you are down to the last bar I think it stays until empty...there is the KM's until empty indicator, but I prefer a gas gauge that tells me more accurately just how much I have left.  But, it drives well off the line, handles well and looks great, and aside from that no complaints really.

Which car has a good gauge that works
they all are off

That and... when you're down to that very last bar, it might be a good idea to go ahead and fill up, rather than reflecting upon what fraction of a 1/12th of a tank you actually have remaining.

Well common sense says don't push the last fuel bar to the limit...fill up!  While I embrace all the new technology, for some things, I prefer throw back guages.  Give me an analog needle indicator when I really need precise info....like the gas gauge!
