All cheap junk.
The Kia is not a bad car in our experience. Our neighbors on both sides have one. They look good, drive well, and they are happy with the dealerships. Both neighbors say they will never buy another American car again after their experience with their KIA’s.
I have no first hand experience, just neighborly reports.
Dang; that’s a little harsh for my 2007 Ford Focus.
109,000 miles and it’s still getting 37 mpg on the highway.
Not a “car” person here, but we have an ‘05 Ford Focus, closing in on 190k miles. Other than tires; brakes and hoses, NO problems. Goes great in avg snow storms (FWD); still gets great mileage. And it’s LONG been paid in full:). It’s just a great little workhorse vehicle.
All good reliable cars that are reasonably priced and/or offer rebates, I’d buy any of them except for the Chrysler products and even then I’d have to make an exception for the Ram 1500 , it’s the best deal in a full size pickup right now in the base models.
