Today was the first time I went to look at this vehicle. I'm in S.CAL. I really respect all of your posts as this is also my first time at this site. I'm glad I found it.

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

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 |
