It's a 2013 Kia. Consumer Reports gave it really high marks, unlike its predecessors. Among other car review websites, it has a really good rating. Haven't read much of anything bad about the 2013 Kia models (aside from them lying about their MPG).

shiit...

the problem is, it may have high marks, but you have *no* idea how long it's going to last, and neither do they. It just hasnt been out long enough.

Like i said, i *have* heard that recently kia turned up their game, and that their cars run longer, and more reliably but... there's just no way to tell at this point.

I'm not saying it was a bad idea, im just hoping that you dont run into any problems down the road. Please, please, please shanna put aside 1-2k just incase something goes wrong. the last thing you want is to have it break down and not have something set aside to fix it.

Hope it works out for you! how much did you pay?

Total was around $15k, which is just what I wanted to spend. Put down well over half, and still have ~4k in the bank. I really, really like it!

Just think, if you spent 4k on the car you could have the "over-half" in the bank.

Oh, looks the like previous pic posted didn't work.
