I'm no Kia or Hyundai fan, period. BUT calling Kia junk is an overstatement. Junk is FIAT, Chrysler,and usually Jeep. Kia and Hyundai are along the same lines of Ford. They still have a ways to go, but they have made some huge improvements.

My family has had several Fords over the years. The only one we had issues with was my 86 escort and that was due to the duel alloy engine design. I consider Ford miles ahead of Kia.

I am not an LB person at all. I have never found any really sharp unless they are modded. The biggest issue moving forward is that Toyota is essentially discontinuing the Yaris platform in markrts with thier Mazda collab BS.
