Used 2008 Kia Rio5 for Sale

To start, I traded in a 2001 Subaru Outback. I wanted something smaller, lighter, and easier on gas. I got exactly that in this little car. It is really a fantastic little car. It's definitely a no-frills, bare bones vehicle, but it really suits someone who doesn't really buy into the car as a status symbol racket. It's functional. Perfectly functional, easy to drive, and you can fit a ton of stuff in the back with the seats folded down. My boyfriend and I go camping all of the time, and this car is perfect for hauling all of our gear. I think the best part may be how inexpensive it is to fuel this great little car. It has a ten-gallon tank, so if gas is around $2.50 a gallon, you can fill this car up for $25.00, and I can tell you a tank of gas lasts quite a while. The other wonderful thing about this car is that I've had to have very little maintenance work done on it. I have put 140,000 + miles on it, and truly have had very little work done. You can get away with cheapy tires too, because it's a light little car. Long story short: A fantastic little budget commuter car. Great for folks in their early 20s.

I've owned a KIA Rio5 for about 7 years now, and it has held up very well. I have not had any major issues with it, only normal maintenance such as changing tires, windshield wipers, etc. The fuel economy is very helpful for commuting back and forth to work. It is not ideal for long trips (>100 miles), but I am sure it will still hold up for a few trips like that. The storage space in the back is almost magic, because it will hold much more than it seems. For instance, I was once able to fit in over $600 worth in groceries in a single trip!
