The 2003 and 2002 have favorable reviews, as does the 2006 model. They all
must be that good!

Buying a 2006 Kia Sedona is like buying a watch from the guy's overcoat on
the street in NYC. It may say Rolex but you know better.

If you are driving a Kia minivan, you don't know any better and that same
watch guy willsell you a bridge to drive your Kia across.

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!

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?

So far.

Oh Yes it does!


You need to take Capt. Mooron's advice and "never argue with a woman"! ;-)

I also have a Honda Accord for better gas mileage. I used to like Pontiacs
until I bought a 1999 Montana. I had it for 4 years and only drove it 7,500
miles, and the air conditioner had to be replaced *twice* and they had a
recall on the automatic sliding door. My kids could open the door while
driving down the road. They had a recall on it so I took it in to get it
fixed. A couple of months later, they had a recall on the recall. When it
was time to buy again, I wouldn't even think about getting another GM
product!

I do like your little fun cars. I'm sure when my sons get grown I will by
something fun to drive.

I think so...I've seen the Kia Sedona and I am just not impressed. When I
used to sell cars in 1981, it was a known fact that you should never by a
new model in the first year or two. They always have bugs that need to be
worked out.

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!

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!

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.

Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-


Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows....
