we got a 2023 Kona back in August

Wanted to get a VW Taos, but for the cost and accessories , it cost more than my wife's atlas

the Kona is pretty good, no complaints,
got it to drive my mother to appointments , its easier for her to get in and out of , she has mobility issues.
averages about 41mph on the highway which surprised me.

I got a Kia last year :mjcry:

I love the car but I basically can’t go to any so-so neighborhoods since one of these brain dead zombies might try something eventhough it’s the new model not susceptible to the TikTok hack. If they don’t get that sh*t under control, when I get my next new car, it won’t be them.

the dct8s in those things randomly die, to be fair when it does go bad kia will install a new transmission under warranty, they try to weasel their way out of that every other time

they also burn oil, don't warn you until it's too late, then grenade the engine. as usual kia didn't honor warranties and tried to hide the defect, see this lawsuit: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.847198/gov.uscourts.cacd.847198.1.0.pdf

kia still hasn't made a single reliable engine under hmg - a 25 year streak of failure :mjlol:
My wife had her '17 Hyundai Sonata snatched last month....during the day. :dead:
damn breh, sorry to hear that, i'm assuming it's either lost/totaled, what'd you get to replace it?

USAA totaled it....funny thing is these fukkers blew the engine when driving. Got almost 15k for it so that was a blessing. Haven't replaced yet cuz she wants it to fall of her Credit report before buying a other but she's looking at the '21 TLX.

Looking at a minivan.

The new Carnival finally has a hybrid option.

Will take a good look at it in a couple of years when I am looking to buy.
