Best car I've owned

I've been a buy USA car guy since being a kid, well maybe a little older, but that all changed in late 2013. I took a chance and purchased my 2014 KIA Forte. The chance turned out to be the best decision I've ever made in a car purchase. The car has run flawless. I enjoy driving it more today than ever and not one thing except a low air pressure on one of the tires has appeared. The only thing I have had a problem with was and is the gas mileage. KIA stated at the time of purchase a higher mileage per gallon than what I got and still getting.

I bought my car second hand in 2016 with 63k on it. I now have 101,200 miles on it and literally the only thing I have done to it was replace the battery this year and do the regular oil changes. This is a super reliable car. The instrument is are set up in logical places, the interior is stylish, and I live that I still get 39mpg. For the price of these cars I feel they are underrated. It's also a very nice looking car. I will buy another just like it in the future.

Update: March 26, 2017. Bought used with 36k miles, now has 48k miles. No problems with it at all. I get 29-32 mpg regularly whether hooning it or driving conservatively. It's acceleration is fine for normal driving and highway merging. The sound system is great, but is sometimes buggy when trying to connect to bluetooth through your phone. Very easy to change your own oil in this car; everything is easy to get to under the car. These are good cars, you can regularly find them under $11k on autotrader or your local domestic dealership. Overall, a good replacement for an Altima Coupe.

I was looking for something with a great warranty AND something that had a classier look, I found both in the Forte. I got the EX model because I wanted something with a bit more kick. Its a smooth drive and its nimble I am able to weave in and out of traffic with a breeze. Overall I am COMPLETELY satisfied with my purchase.
