Okay now tell the truth...
You wanted the chrome ones so you swapped them out.
And the door strips....can't park it in compact (skinny) spots and expect
the door guards to stay on!

Bobo had started to get me interested in one of these until.............

I leased a Dodge Magnum instead.

I rented a Magnum in the US early this year.
Had it for a month.
It drove well, but shed those bump strips halfway up the doors within
hours of picking it up (had 30 miles on it when I got it and a couple
of thousand when returned), had different coloured grey trim on rear
doors compared to the front, and chrome doorlock buttons on one side,
grey on the other.....very interesting build quality control....

What do you expect from American car makers? When Chrysler/Ford/GM
sales drop they cut jobs, costs and make deals with workers. No one
every wonders to actually build a few good cars.
After looking at the Kia, Honda and Toyota minivans, we went to test
out a new Caravan. The poor thing was even more underpowered than the
Toyota and had switch-gear from 5 years ago. It was as dated as Sloco's
boat. Still worse, it was a brand new test car (not used before) and
had...non-working window switch, partially non working rear seat, dead
DVD player and a rattle in the rear hatch. We spent more money and got
the Kia which is 100% perfect so far.

How then, could you even tell it was moving? Did you test drive it on a flat
bed truck?

It can go BOOM....3 times better/longer warranty and roadside program
than Toyota and Honda.
Subaru's AWD minivan will be here in 2009. We may trade for that!

Great!

With the Kia's trade in value you could probably get 2 new Subaru AWD
minivans!


3 times the warranty and one third the trade in value! Makes anyone want to
buy a Kia over a Honda/Toyota!

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kerplang! Chuga-chuga-chuga reeeeee reeeeeeeeeee

Sienna is dead, more than a year before new one. And who'd buy one
knowing the new one is coming to kill resale on the old? Meanwhile
Sienna is beating no one in reviews. Came in 3rd in MT review. Engine
too small. Read it yourself.
But we don't exactly care about trade in values. That's for Scotty's
kind.
