My wife and I wanted a car that would be comfortable for us and our kids and 2009 Kia Borrego LX V6 is perfect. Plenty of room, nice interior, and the ride just feels good. Some people mention a rough ride, but I haven't experienced that. The only thing I would say about that, is I do feel speed bumps a lot more than I do in our Prius, but I think that is just because of the vehicle style. I used to own a 4Runner and it did the same thing.
