Replying to: chuck1959 (Nov 07, 2005 8:04 am) well I BOUGHT a 2006 kia rio and let me tell you that the dealership was the worst I have EVER been to, the car is not all that they said it would be and I will NEVER buya kia anything EVER again. I have had nothing but problems with both the car AND the dealership (to include calling kia corporate headquarters, which was bad as well). The car stumbles almost every morning when I go to work, the engine struggles when going up small hills, the seats are as uncomfortable as all get when traveling more than a few miles and the gas is not as good as I was told it was going to be, maybe I went to a crappy dealership and got a crappy car but I will NEVER EVER buy a kia again. and I HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOCK KIA ALL I WANT TO INCLUDE THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE (which was as helpful as my asking my 10 yrold niece for help)!!

Replying to: dchanco (Jun 29, 2006 11:26 am) Have you tried going to a different dealer? Some are excellent, others redefine the term "suck." There's not much corporate can really do if the dealer won't play ball, and they could be better at weeding out the bad dealerships. But there are a lot of good Kia dealerships out there, hunt around for a different one. Which dealership are you dealing with and where?   Todd in Beerbratistan
#512 of 605 question about the rio5 hatchback by canuck785 Jul 10, 2006 (1:12 pm)
hello, 1st post here... i got questions...   1- i never saw a rio5 hatch in person yet..(i live in RURAL kansas... ) and i am wondering about the size of it? i see scion xA pretty often and aveos, it is roughly the same size as these cars?    2- i read most of the post here and the rio doesn,t seem to get as good gas mileage as yaris, xA or aveo ( which isn,t mention often??) i am looking for at least 35 mpg, is it doable with the rio? i would drive mostly highway.   3- i am putting the rio on my list of future buy (in the fall i will get a new car) because of the warranty, is it worth it to buy this car versus a nissan versa (i am really interested in that nissan) because it has a better warranty?   4- is the sitting position pretty high? or is it like the 1990's honda civic where you sit on the road and you have to CLIMB OUT of the car????   here is my list of cars, feel free to comment or give me some advice...i am getting a litte confused 1- rio5 hatch 2-chevy aveo hatch 3-nissan versa hatch 4- toyota yaris hatch 5-scion xA hatch   i drove a wrangler for a couple of years and recently sold my cherokee...it is A MAJOR change for me to even consider driving a small car...but i drove the aveo and the xB and the sitting position is high enough that it convince me to give them a try!!!

Replying to: canuck785 (Jul 10, 2006 1:12 pm) My rio sedan has been getting 38-39 miles per gallon highway. Im very pleased with that. After driving a wrangler for years i understand about the sitting low. The seats in the rio adjust so you can put them up or lower. Its not the same as a truck in anyway but it is a comfortable little car and the gas milage is great Replies to this message: canuck785 (Jul 10, 2006 3:22 pm) misrie (Jul 11, 2006 3:18 am) canuck785 (Jul 11, 2006 10:51 am)

Replying to: misrie (Jul 10, 2006 2:29 pm) thanks for your reply!! nice to know you understand my point about wrangler...i had 31" tires on it too..was a rough ride but was my dream car!!! i could go on on about my jeeps but that is beside the subject here...  good to know about the gas mileage!that is my numebr 1 criteria at this point.  how about the size? comparable to xA and aveo?? i have the brochure but it is hard to tell with a picture. don't get me wrong, i think it is a really nice looking car, i love the sunset orange btw!!! looks a bit like the pontiac vibe, which i like too but a few $$$ more than i can afford.
