I think Kia forgot that above all, it is supposed to be an SUV! In the freak blizzard we had this past October, I was driving home when my windshield wipers stopped working simply b/c snow had built up under them, I tried turning them off, back on, spraying blue stuff, nothing would make them come back...I got out in almost white out conditions & scooped the extra snow & slush from under the wipers. They started to work again..... can't imagine if I had still been on Interstate and that happened. The next day, it couldn't even get up the hill outside our house! Our Subaru Forrester had no problems at all! After only a year, traded it in on a Ford Escape.
Where's the storage tray?

Anybody else get a new sportage and have the dealer tell them the rear storage tray will be available later? It's listed as standard equipment, but my dealer can't find one or order one. Otherwise very happy with the purchase. Nice warranty - I got rid of a Ford Freestyle because the transfer case kept leaking.

So Far So Good!

Well I have had a Honda Accord and a Nissan Maxima. I purchased a Honda 2010 and really felt after all the snow that fell in my area that I should have purchased a SUV. I was informed that Kia has a pretty good SUV with a great safety rating. So I tried it and decided to trade in the Honda. So far so good. The ride is a bit firm and I am starting to get use to it. I will update if there are any changes.
New Adventure!

I just purchased my Sportage in August and I mist say I am impressed. After owning 2 Hondas and a Maxima, I was afraid to go outside my comfort zone. So far so good. I enjoy the comfort but the ride is a little harsh. Hopefully I will get use to it. I will report back on the progress.
MPG Sticker Lies drastically

I liked this SUV but the window sticker MPG is way off! I am a conservitave driver. On paved roads getting 17-22 best, but mostly worse. This AWD is a mountain goat as far as the AWD goes. I only got stuck going up one mining road in NV and it was not able to continue climbing the gravel road without slipping backward and sideways. It was a scary drive backward down a narrow road with a canyon on one side and embankment on the other. It was great in the sandy soil of my NW NV property but didn't quite clear the middle of the pasture roads. I sold it with only 5K because of the MPG being so misrepresented. Sorry to see it go but too much difference in MPG way below sticker. Not nice!
