Mrs Crantz's 2005 Sienna gets about 26 mpg under the same conditions when we run it down to Santa Fe. Remember, that is not flat terrain. |

The engine is not a lot less powerful. To see the 30 hp difference in engines you would have to run them near redline. At 5000 RPM and up the KIA has more horsepower. So tell me you are going to be redlining a mini van with automatic transmission. The Sienna also has larger cargo volume and it weighs less. The KIA also fails with regard to wind noise. The cost of ownership of the Toyota is much less, the resale value is a big factor. How about a 20 seat lucheonette over in Canarsie? |

I met the aforementioned ridiculous man in an elevator in the late 1970's or very early '80's. I was on an elevator going up to an exclusive restaurant all by myself to meet a friend and some dude put his arm in an held the elevator up. I was ****ed, and then this weirdo climbed in with his body guards. I tried my best not to laugh or mock him, but I couldn't wait until I could get off the elevator...the man was taking up *my* space! LP |

His schtick was making a great caricature of himself and connecting with the audience. I'm his biggest fan! Liberace was engaged in the 1950's: http://www.bobsliberace.com/decades/1950s/1950s.4.html What is your favorite Liberace moment? Just imagine Liberace at the piano and Divine at the microphone! That's even better than William Bendix in a fur lined canoe! Glory! |
