Kia has it right

Kia Spectra and Rio has great body designs and interiors are very well designed. Great gas mileage. 36-38-mpg city and 42 mpg highway. My wife and I are both retired senior citizens and have driven Fords for over forty five years. Ford, GM, Chrysler all have went down hill over the last few years. Toyota and Honda have priced themselves out of the market and quality has also went south on the Honda and Toyota. We purchased a 2008 Kia Spectra and a 2008 Kia Rio for my wife. Both vehicles was $7000.00 and $8000.00 less than Honda or Toyota. Both Kia's are very quiet even at 70-75 mph and ride is a nice soft ride. Dash controls are very user friendly as well as the windshield wipers and lights are also. The cruise control is the easiest and best cruise control I have ever used on any car I have owned. Body fit is superior to the top three domestic brands. Interior is very well organized with a double compartment center console. Leg and head room is very spacious in both the front and rear seats. For $650.00 each we purchased an extended warranty that takes both vehicles from a 5 year 60,000 mile bumper to bumper to a 10 year, 100,000 bumper to bumper warranty. 0 - 60 mph is very generous and smooth. Only complaint was the Goodyear Eagle LS tires that came on vehicle. Goodyear tires are just not a good tire in my estimation. We replaced tires with Toyo spectrum tires when both vehicle had less that a thousand miles. We both literally love our Kia's and feel the prices paid out the door verses other brands you can't go wrong.
