I don't to drive a lot as I work from home, so Kia is always after my rides. I traded in my 2012 Rondo on a new 2015 Sorento. The ride is impeccable and firm, in my brother's words (he has one as well unbeknownst to me until a few days ago), we upgraded to a luxury vehicle, from a Ford Escape.

In May of this year we decided to take a trip from Ontario to British Columbia, driving all the way. I was afraid the Sorento wasn't up to it but I was pleasantly surprised. Pulling a 1300 pop up trailer with a 4 liter engine we had no problem going out west with the big (ok, huge) hills in northern Ontario. Gas mileage isn't the best, but you will enjoy all the amenities and the drive.
