Wife's new car
2011 Kia Sorrento. AWD, third row seats, loaded. It'll be a good grand kid hauler. |

I've rented a few Kia's. I surprisingly liked 'em.

I get to drive it tonight. We'll see. We are headed down to Charlotte this weekend- it'll get a workout. I do like the rear view camera.

Wife looked at those, the sportage, optima, and the Nissan murano. Chose a Nissan Altima after all of that. Rather surprised at the bang for the buck on the new KIAs.

Hard to argue with a 10 year warranty.

You'll like it. My wifes Santa Fefew is pushing 76k and she still loves it. We'll be replacing it with another Hyundai within a year. Gotta love the warranty too.

I was afraid it was going to be a mini van.
The Sorrento is much more acceptable! |

My wife got a 2012 in October. Other than the suckey OE Kumho tires, which I just replaced with Dunlops, it's a nice ride.The tires made a huge difference......
btw, you'll never use the rear camera after the novelty wears off, if you're anything like us. |

First thing I did was back up to see how close I could get to my truck. Wife almost slapped me.

Not very accurate , is it ?.....I have another two to three feet when the constant chime is on.... It's ok I guess, but I prefer the over the shoulder look, or the side mirror.

Should be about 6" from the closest part of the truck. Every one I've ever driven was dead-to-nuts accurate.
