Back in 06 wife wanted the glitzier more featured Kia Sportage. I over ruled and bought a Rav4. Don't see any Sportages from that era on the road today. Still plenty of those Rav's. Not to mention when the Kia/Hyundai folks see a credit rating over 300...they lose interest in trying to sell because they realize they will have a tough time sucking you into their perpetual credit trap.

We felt the same way while comparing the Rav4 and Tucson phevs. The Tucson was definitely better featured for roughly the same price, but all of the extra tech and resale values of Hyundai vs Toyota pushed us back towards the Toyota.
I wish insurance hadn’t written off our old Rav4. I still see so many of those early 2000s models around Calgary. I bet it would have lasted ar least another 10 years with regular maintenance.
