Replying to: rickyt2 (Dec 12, 2005 3:28 pm) I worked out a deal yesterday for a TOP-o-the line EX Sorento with 4K miles on it.(dealer car) Sticker was 30,493, and we got down to $23.8 with rebates et al. But i still didn't buy it...I think you can get a fully pimped out EX for under 23K....just my opinion.

#139 of 174 Sorrento LX Rental by sandman46 Apr 10, 2006 (5:06 pm)
I got a Sorrento LX from Enterprise this evening and it's a real blast to drive. It's a bit to big and tall for me with my bad back and all, but I now know that a small sport ute might just be the ticket for me. I'll still enjoy the ride for the 3 or 4 days that I'll have it though. Doesn't Kia make a smaller sport ute now?   The Sandman Replies to this message: lok888 (Apr 11, 2006 8:38 am)

Turned the Sorrento in earlier this evening to Enterprise. Totally unimpressed with the car. With only 7230 on the odo, the car shuddered from a stop when I started to accelerate. Very disconcerting. It sure moved once it got going and the brakes worked o k, don't know if it had ABS. The plastics were not up to Japanese standards and it wouldn't fit in the garage. The mileage was worse than I expected also. I did love the high seating position though...a nice commanding view of the road ahead. I wonder if the Sportage would be a better fit for me when the time comes. Still unsure about the long term reliability & quality of the interior parts though. Think I'd rather pony up a little more for the Rav4 or the CRV and get the Toyota/Honda quality. I know one pays a premium for them, but they do set the benchmark in the small ute class...hands down! Just my $.02 here after having driven the Sorrento about 100 miles.   The Sandman
#145 of 174 Honda quality? by tomsr1 Apr 15, 2006 (8:35 pm)
I bought a 2002 CRV when they came out.When the warranty was up the steering wheel and drivers seat were trashed. I traded it for a Highlander hopeing for longterm durability. So far so good.As to Sorentos I now have an 03 Sorento EX 4wd which had 38000 on it and it was and is like brand new.It is much higher quality than any American car I have owned.It absorbs bumps better than the Toyota and it's quick/light steering make it a breeze to park. I have two very good SUVs now but gas prices make me wish I had an economy car.I like sitting up high and all the bells and whistles that comes with the Luxury Package but poor gas mileage is the price you pay.The Toyota with 3.3 ltr averages 20 and the Sorento with 3.5 ltr averages 15.
