Being retired military, I don't think I could ever own a Kia. As all us military types know, kia stands for "KILLED IN ACTION". But that's just me.

We have two Kia cars and two F-350s. I'm good with that.

Wife drives a Kia Sorento I bought her for just a knock around car. She will not give it up. 180K miles. One crank shaft sensor. great car.

We had a 2012 Kia Sorrento with the 270hp V6. That thing really moved! Also would knock down 28mpg driving 60mph on the Hwy. Quality of that vehicle was excellent. The only reason it got sold was the company needed a write off so we sold it and leased a car. Miss that Kia alot.

Our son just bought a loaded Kia Sorrento. Very impressive.

Useless or not, it's interesting that lowly Kia is #1.
They're definitely moving up in the automotive world.
I wonder when they will produce a pickup truck? 🙂

Is this initial quality or vehicle dependability? The former is completely useless, the ladder is somewhat less useless.

Thus the reason I replied the way I did..just doesn't really matter
