I apologize for it's length, it's just under 20 minutes, but I wanted it to feel like you sort of took the test drive yourself. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_cz3lwAqUY&feature=youtube_gdata

A few years ago, 16 inches of snow fell overnight at my house. Parked in our driveway was my Sorento, my friend's Ford Edge and my mother's Pontiac Aztec. My Sorento pulled right out of the driveway with no problem, while we had to shovel the other two SUVs out!! They were stuck!! Mine wasn't :)
The vehicle has been 100% reliable to me for 6 years, and the Kelly Blue Book value for this car is about $6,600 in a private party sale in "good condition".
"If it's so great you say, then why are you selling it?" is what I'm asked. And the answer is one reason and one reason only and it starts with the letter H. A big H. We bought a HOUSE! And in a month I have to make mortgage payments. Please write me and let me know if you are interested. I'm in the Lehigh Valley, Delaware Valley & New Jersey all the time if you'd like to meet up and see the car in person.

A/C just Recharged today (5/29/13) by my mechanic -- now ICE COLD -- you're set for the summer!
On May-29-13 at 12:27:57 PDT, seller added the following information:
Forgot to add that the rear lift gate glass opens (see photo) with the touch of a button on the driver's door. I'm sure there's more things I'm forgetting and I'll be uploading more photos during the next few days and adding more information. It's 92 degrees here, I just drove the car a bit and the A/C blew ice cold. Really, really good.
Also, did you check out the Youtube "test drive" video? If you're serious about purchasing this car you should watch it. I apologize for how long it is, I just wanted to cover as much as I could:

So I've have had a couple questions about the condition of the paint. While it was just detailed, there are some scratches (being a 9 year old car) on the hood and one here or there on the side, but nothing major.

Another thing I forgot to add, there is a roof mounted rear spoiler with a brake light near the roof rack :)

2014 Kia Sportage facelift arrives with updated 2.4L, new grille
Mon, 16 Sep 2013The third-generation Sportage has been around for a few years now, but Kia is making some minor changes to its compact crossover for 2014. As expected with a small, mid-cycle refresh, there isn't anything too major to report here, but the important news for the 2014 Sportage involves what's behind that modestly updated fascia.
Kia has revamped the Sportage's base 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine to add direct injection, which is said to improve efficiency, although no fuel economy numbers have been released yet. Switching to DI has also increased the engine's output, up slightly from 176 horsepower and 168 pound-feet of torque in 2013 to 182 hp and 178 lb-ft for 2014. Additionally, LX models now receive the sportier shock setup previously available only on EX and SX trims.
More importantly, the base trim level has been dropped from the 2014 Sportage lineup, meaning the car's manual transmission has been axed, as well. Pricing hasn't been released yet, but the 2013 Sportage already undercut competitors like the Chevy Equinox and Toyota RAV4 by thousands of dollars, so even a modest increase for 2014 would still position the Kia rather nicely in the segment.
Kia Soul getting turbo power, possible AWD
Wed, 17 Sep 2014It's been a long time coming, but it appears we might finally see a turbocharged Kia Soul next year. Kia officials reportedly confirmed the hotter Soul to Motor Trend recently, and also stated that the company is (still) investigating the use of all-wheel drive for the next generation of its boxy hatchback.
The turbo Soul will arrive with the same 1.6-liter four-cylinder found in the Forte, rated at 201 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque. According to Motor Trend, Kia wanted to launch the hotter Soul this year, but didn't have the retuned steering or suspension calibration, as well as the larger brakes, ready in time. Transmission pairings weren't discussed, but Kia does mate both its six-speed manual and automatic units to the 1.6T.
As for all-wheel drive, this isn't the first time we've heard reports on this front, and it seems like a pretty natural fit, to us. Adding AWD would allow the Soul to better compete with vehicles like the Nissan Juke and the upcoming Chevy Trax and Jeep Renegade. But as of right now, a four-wheels-driven Soul hasn't been given an official go-ahead.
2014 Kia Soul totally redesigned, now bigger and more refined
Wed, 27 Mar 2013The 2014 Kia Soul has been unveiled at the 2013 New York Auto Show, and the all-new five-door box-on-wheels offers up nearly an extra inch of wheelbase and a track that's wider by .6 inches. The changes offer up a bit more space indoors, and since overall height has remained the same, the Soul now looks a bit less top heavy than before. A wider rear hatch opening also makes loading and unloading cargo easier. Indoors, the 2014 Soul offers a substantially revised cabin with more soft-touch materials, and leather seats are now on the option sheet. Designers borrowed inspiration from the Kia Track'ster Concept indoors, using organic lines throughout.
An available eight-inch touch screen takes care of infotainment duties on the center stack, and now features the ability to scroll through content by flicking a finger, just like a smartphone, instead of paging through multiple screens. Buyers can also fit their 2014 Soul with a larger TFT LCD color screen in the instrument cluster, which now displays turn-by-turn directions on vehicles equipped with navigation.
Engineers managed to create a chassis that's also 29-percent stiffer, with 66 percent of the shell using ultra-high-strength steel for safety and rigidity. Under the hood, base models bow with a 1.6-liter direct-injection four-cylinder engine with 130 horsepower and 118 pound-feet of torque, while Plus and Exclaim trims get a more potent direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder. That engine develops 164 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque, and both mills can be bolted to either a six-speed manual or automatic depending on trim.
