2009 Kia Sedona Base SWB

Pros

Comfort and great fuel economy!

Cons

None to whine about!

Pros

Dual Front and rear Temp Controls; Sirus Radio; good mileage and pickup

Cons

Rough ride, seats not great

Mileage is good I estimate about 24mpg. I was in the van 4 hours straight various highway and roads. A little rough of a ride for 16K miles, but maybe that is because the van was empty. The controls take some getting use to, wipers on right, and shifter in the center of dash. Manual shift mode available. The radio is a little far away for a short arm person. The higher end models might have steering controls for the radio. The radio is very clear, but has no power to push out the sound when the windows are down. Some squeaks and rattles are already showing up, and some engine bay noise most likely a fan belt or pully....read morehide
