1. It’s ugly outside but inside is okaaaaaa

2. I look at it yesterday 2/15/26, I'm going crazy love this Calligraphy. yeah, the 120months / 100,000 miles sound great. It only two of us. I have a 2023 Hybrid highlander, 18,000 miles. Let see what the best offer for my car before I make a deal take place. ask around 40,000 for my car. let see?

3. Day 22 of requesting for TheCarCareNut to review a W140 S500/S600.

4. I loves these videos, it's much better than the usual motoring reviews videos which focus on the driving and the daily usage. The technical focus is very educational. The mechanic POV is important for maintenance and long term ownership. Thank you for making these videos sir.

5. do you like this better than a touring?

6. Highway noise due to oversize 21" RIMS and 45 Series Tires. Purchase the basic model with 18" WHEELS.

7. Could the strange bend, in the exhaust, be there to keep it as far as possible away from the battery?

8. Hi can you do a review on 2027 kia telluride

9. I just could not buy that because of the horrendous exterior. I love everything else about it. That's sad they made it so freaking ugly on the outside.

10. It’s a 2.5 liter engine not 2.6 liter

11. Such an ugly car.

13. Bro. Not the space for this comment, but what do you think of mazda cylinder deactivation? Issues in 2025?

14. Day 20 of requesting for TheCarCareNut to review a W140 S500/S600.

15. I have the '25 SEL AWD hybrid and it has been a super upgrade from my Dodge Grand caravan. My GC was so loud so this one seems quiet to me in comparison. Getting great mileage in the winter for a vehicle this size; it's been consistently between 30-35 mpg.

16. Day 19 of requesting for TheCarCareNut to review a W140 S500/S600.

17. It gives me the really old 4Runner look and I can't tell if I like it or hate it but it's actually gotten my attention.

19. Great review as usual

20. Glad I got the platinum maintenance package and won’t be wrenching on it

21. The best reviews channel ever! I’m really looking forward to your review of the Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy hybrid.

22. Day 17 of requesting for TheCarCareNut to review a W140 S500/S600.

23. How do I get rid of the coffee cup take a break that comes on main screen

25. the gas model has more HP unless im wrong.

26. Nice review, I was impressed with this and the Palisade by Hyundai. The interior definitely blew me away on the Palisade and it had a nice soft ride.

27. Any plans on reviewing the 2026 Grand Cherokee with the new turbo engine ? Id love to hear your thoughts on it.

28. this car is what the new range rover should look like, not that curvy gross look it has now.
    these are really cool cars, and do diss minivans until you do the newer kia carnivals, they are so good.

29. I actually think it resembles the Land Rover

30. Could you make a video where you talk about which cars/brands that are the most reliable and well-built and easily repairable?

31. I am surprised by the complexity of what’s under the hood. Makes you think about it twice.

32. Could you do the Nissan pathfinder

33. Day 15 of requesting for TheCarCareNut to review a W140 S500/S600.

34. That it has a 10 year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty is a big plus.

35. I'm really looking forward to seeing your review of the 2026 Subaru Outback.

36. Is Hyundai dealer service comparable to Toyota. I owned a Kia 10 years ago and service department and mechanic was no where near Toyota

37. its god awful ugly like the flex from ford

38. I am in a confusion Kia Sorento or Santa Fe
    what is your suggestion… please

39. I was able to get the top of the line hybrid all-wheel drive calligraphy model for $45,500 in OK. This car is absolutely fantastic. I cannot speak highly enough about how well it is made. And it handles amazingly in the snow. For those not in the know, in other countries this vehicle also comes with a pair of fog lights. They don't come standard in America, but you can get them installed fairly cheaply and they only cost about $80. Additionally you can get an aftermarket dashcam for front and rear, and it looks like it's an oem part. You can absolutely add a spare tire to the bottom, and for those of you worried about clearance you can also add a 2 inch lift. Additionally the skid plate from the xrt model fits this vehicle perfectly.

    This is legitimately the best vehicle I have ever owned. It's perfect in nearly every way. 32 mi per gallon is about right, but in some instances I have gotten as high as 42 miles per gallon for good stretch of time going around 60 miles an hour. The air conditioning is phenomenal, and the heated seats and steering wheel really warm you up. It also has a premium Bose sound system and it is legitimately one of the best sound systems I've ever heard.

    If you're on the fence about getting this vehicle, take it for a test drive and you'll be hooked.

40. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

42. I don't buy plastic lawnmower engines
    I do like the body design looks different that all the other copy and paste car style
