Re: Luxury SUV

thanks for the links Kia. I read the reviews for the X5 and most of them complain about electrical problems, inefficient cupholders, door handles that strip, and mechanical failure. Oh and the brakes burning out fast as well as the gas.

Re: Luxury SUV

Dahjah the X6 looks sexy as all get out but looking at the trunk space alone would deter me..not enough room for cargo

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Kia</div><div class="ubbcode-body">but the issue with the escalade and buick (basically the american cars) is after 5 years dem look 5 yrs old.. cause the style change often no? </div></div>

Actually Japanese veekles change their body style on the average of every 2 years. One of the problems with NA veekles was dat dem did tek too long fi upgrade de body style, sometimes even up to 5 years (especially fi de SUV an pickup dem). They've been trying to do like the japs and change faster, but wid all de ppl dem let go dat is anoddah uphill bakkle.

Re: Luxury SUV

Kia mi nuh like di MDX dem ....


and also I am getting used because

1. I really don't want any payments

and

2.As soon as you drive a new car off the lot it drops in value.


So mi looking at vehicles between 01-04 (dat suit mi budget).

Re: Luxury SUV

if you was looking new another one but not in the 'luxury' category is the honda pilot

it have 3rd row seating, cup holders, galore, nav system, headrest monitors for movies, etc etc, - a neighbor of mine just got one and loves it

i think in the 01 - the honda pilot you could get either a nav system or a dvd player but not both.
