    What do you guys think of the Kia Borrego? I think it's really nice...and the V8 isn't too shabby either.

    At least as long as I don't do any Ranching or live in a desert or mountainous area, I totally agree.

    Are you guys saying that because of gas mileage? Because according to Edmunds the V6 Borrego averages 17/21 mpg city/hwy. That's almost as good as a normal sedan.

    Are you one of those undercover marketers?

    Firstly, no - its not my kind of thing because I don't like that style of big plastic off-roader. If I do end up deciding to get a 4x4 at some point, which is unlikely as while doing those offroad days looks fun I'd have no need for it otherwise, it'd have to be an old Series or Defender LR or something similar.

    Also 17/21 mpg is rubbish for a V6 - a guy I know with an early '90s V8 Discovery got better, and as for "normal sedan", not really, is it? Surely "normal sedan" would be a little over 30 miles per US gallon?
