Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your new Sportage! What did the Sportage replace for you? I'm glad you found us.
The car we replaced was a Prius. We have had very good luck with Toyota products. The best vechicle I've ever owned was a '92 4-Runner. My father in law had a Kia Sorento. He loved the warranty and service. He actually just replaced it with a new Sorento. So, after discussing it with him, and due diligence, we opted on the Sportage over a Rav-4.
We don't need all wheel drive and got the front wheel drive option. It's a good ride. It has more bells and whistles than I need.

But the wife likes them. She's the one driving it.
Looking forward to learning about Kia's on this forum.
