My wife loves her Sorento-Mercedes and an Escalade in the driveway and she chooses the Kia

Wife has a '17 Sorento SX V6. It has a lot of the bells and whistles. She likes it better than the Cadillac SRX that she totaled, it was a base model though.

Yep, I have a Stinger and I love it. I also have an older Tundra to balance it out.

Wife had a 2008 minivan. Was perfect for the first 160,000 miles.
Then started having problems.
Dumped it around 175,000.
I would say 160,000 miles of great reliability is getting your money's worth.

Beautiful vehicles.
The Hyundai Palisade is nice, too.
People shite on these brands but they’ve come a long way in the last decade. My wife is due for another suv and we’ll be considering both of these.

I totaled my Accord at Thanksgiving and looked hard at the Kia Optima. I liked it, but not as much as the new Accord, especially with the deal I got on it.

Gets me to work and back.
It had 3000 miles on it when I bought it.
At times, there is a little hesitancy when accelerating, but it’s not a huge deal.
2015 Optima.
It’s ok. I’m not a car guy. Only drive because I have to to get to work and the golf course.
I’ve had it since 2016. Only have 52000 miles on it now. Will drive it until it falls apart and then get something else.

We have a Limited Pallisade. All the bells and whistles and about the same price as the mid level Yukon she wrecked. Not a Kia, but basically the same as a Telluride. Had a Sonata and a Santa Fe in the past as well. No problems and keep going back.

Everyone I know has to justify their Kia purchase. They can't actually say why they like them.

My friend has a newer Kia Optima. I rode in it the other day it was a smooth ride I was surprised. Very nice interior as well

Keep the belts changed on them regularly because unless things have changed those motors are zero tolerance and if the serpentine belt snaps the motor is shot. Just saying from experience but other than that good vehicles

What does Kia stand for all I’ve come up with is Korea in automobile

Also does anyone remember when ( at least here in northeast Ohio ) when if u bought a Kia, I think van or suv, you got the Kia Rio free, that rio was a piece of crap ,.. I’m sure they rolled the price of the rio in but still 2 cars for like 20k

The wife has a telluride and seems to like it. The kids love it. I couldn’t believe how inexpensive it was. Its great on gas, rides good and quiet, plenty fast, has all the bells and whistles, cost 3k more than her new 4Runner did 11 years ago
