Best car ever!
by clvh on 3/15/2026 5:00:59 PM
Our 2017 Kia Optima EX has been our best car ever! It is stylish, well-equipped, and runs like a dream. We bought it new in August 2017 and it now has 45,000 miles on it. We have had zero service problems with it. Other than our scheduled maintenance, all we've had to do is install a new battery (we were in Europe for 6 months) and change our tires at 35,000 miles. This summer it will be nine years old. We have had many different new cars over the years, including a 1993 MB 190 2.3 and a 1999 MB S320, and this is the most trouble-free vehicle of all. Plus, it drives very well, is comfortable inside, and gets super mileage (28+/38+) Also, it does not have a digital speedometer which manufacturers insist on putting in new cars these days. All and all, a great car! - 5.0

No mechanical problems what so ever. The best car I have ever had and I'm 61yoa. Have had a number of vehicles in my lifetime But this is the Best. Thank you - 5.0
Missing My … KIA Optima
by MsMcK133 on 11/3/2025 5:54:29 AM
I absolutely loved my 2019 KIA Optima LX/S. I bought it brand new in the beginning of 2019. I had not one problem with my car whatsoever. I drove it for 3.5 years. Then it went to my son when he turned 16 years old. He had it for just over 2 years until one of our neighbors was pulling out of her parking spot and out of nowhere she slammed right into the front passenger fender, breaking the rim, fender, and tore a window. It was over $8,700 in damages! How do you total two cars in a parking lot, especially when you are backed in your parking spot and pulling forward?!? Her insurance company wouldn’t give me any choice unless I wanted to deal with a loss title. USAA is the worst insurance company around! I just read yesterday that my car had minor damages! Not a surprise! I had the worst, rudest adjuster ever! Long story short, my car was taken to a lot and sold for a whole $200! But in the statement it says minor damages and “great deal.” With the VIN number it of course showed all my service records! I knew something wasn’t sitting right about everything with this entire situation! You can’t trust anyone anymore! It’s sad! From car dealerships to auto insurance right down to the person that was you don’t expect to slam right into you 10 minutes before 7 in the AM! I’m everything when it comes down to it, everyone in the entire world should and needs is honesty, people. Lying, stealing, and cheating people are only sad, miserable, greedy people. I’m glad I’m not them… Long story long … My son and I absolutely loved our 2019 KIA Optima “Sally.” She was a great car! We will miss her!
