Just wanted to tell all here what a fine experience owning a Kia was. The day before yesterday, I convinced my wife that we should get a normal sized truck instead of the sub-compact Sedona. Hence, we are now the proud owners of a 2006 Avalanche.
That said, the Sedona has been a very good car over the past almost five years. I have had zero problems which weren't handled promptly by the dealer. For those of you still driving Kia's enjoy!
I may be back if my mom's new Sportage ever decides to act up. Until then...
