    Very luxurious, but also maybe a little weird looking. Does anyone else agree?
    Thanks to Allentown Kia for letting me borrow this!

    Good review and thanks for funny acting. I needed a good laugh. Going through a tough moment. I like the new style of reviewing you did on the road. Thank you always for the scripture. Keep up the good work and God Bless.

    I love this car. I wish I could have got mine in that color. As for the back hatch if you are lowering it with the remote you will have to hold the button down when closing it. It’s a safety precaution to make sure it’s safe to close all the way. If you press the button on the on the lift gate when done it will then close all the way. But using the remote it needs to be held down to assure clearance.

    Thanks for the awesome review, I liked 80's feel of cheesy comments and humor. Keep up the great Bible verses. I like the location separation between the car review and verse. Thanks again for the great videos. God Bless!!!!!!!!!!

    Undoubtedly beautiful, I was interested in leasing one, but my experience with kia dealers made me give up since they put many stupid charges on it, and in the end the value is 8-9k above the msrp value (from $33k it went up to 41k) , the monthly payments for 36 months with a down of $4000 were more than $600 per month. For that value I think it is cheaper to rent a luxury brand. It is a pity that Kia dealers try to take advantage of this unfair way.

      this was my experience as well. It was supposedly a $35k car but the payments were equal to a $50k car. We then ask about the Telluride. They never gave me numbers but paid them a visit and saw a $42k base model Telluride S was marked up to $58k on the window sticker. They were next level scum compared to other dealers. Of course I thought their $35k car was out of my price range. Would have been good to know it was really $45k. Swore off Kia for life

      Wow…that’s terrible! What a bummer. I also had a bad experience with KIA sales when I got my 2021 Seltos. Their sales department gets more negative comments than any other manufacturer it seems. I think part of it is that they know they have the hottest cars on the market and are hard to come by. If you don’t buy it, someone else will in 5 minutes.
      I’m currently testing the waters to possibly turn in my lease early and get a Tucson. I love the Sportage but they already said I would have to order it, and I am sure they would be asking a fortune.

    Love this video. I’ve looked at so many videos of the sportage but this stood out to me so much. I already liked your vibe and info from the beginning but I didn’t really know why. At the end it became more clear. My spirit could just feel the God loving energy. I love that you added the scripture lesson at the end. Keep it up! You’re great and I wish you much success

  • @barbs1298
    @barbs1298 Před rokem +1

    Couple of questions after watching this again...are the 19-inch tires considered low profile? Not a fan of low-profile tires. And is the red interior an orangish red or red, red? I also read somewhere that the Wolf Gray matte finish color is hand wash only, That wouldn't work in very cold & snowy winters with road salt. I surely wouldn't be dragging a hose out for a car wash in winter...lol.

    • @AlphaShark
      @AlphaShark  Před rokem

      I couldn't say if they're low profile tires or not since this was such a long time ago. Though It's more of a red red interior. Also this grey is glossy, so it would be fine to wash normally, if it was a matte it would need to be hand washed.

    This is pure evidence that Kia has come a long way within the last few years. Back in the 90s and 2000s they were the laughing stock of vehicles. Now they're one of the most recommended cars out there. They have become a more premium brand like you said. The fact that at $35000 you get BMW or Mercedes-Benz level of luxury and tech for half the price is astounding. The appeal is evident judging by how many new Kias are on the road. Every day I see new Sportages, Sorentos, Tellurides, Souls, and K5s everywhere. And since Earth-tone colors are very popular right now, I particularly see them in this very color, Wolf Grey, except on the Soul since it's not available in this color. It makes the car look even more premium and sporty. A good friend of mine who's a salesman at a Kia dealer temporarily had a new black Sportage in the SX trim and was a wonderful car to drive and be chauffeured in. It was very comfortable, roomy, practical, good-looking, and a good value.

      If you had a disease that was slowly killing you, and you went from doctor to doctor and no one knew how to cure you, and finally after years and years you found the doctor who knew how to heal you, and not only heal you, but he could heal anyone! You know you'd tell everyone you could that you were healed and he could help them too! I bring glory to God at the end because he healed me and I want to share that with everyone I can. God is real Maribeth, and he would love a relationship with you too, the door is always open! :) If you'd like to talk about this in more detail here's my email: alphasharkpictures@gmail.com
