I’m going to buy a next week and can’t decide to go with the Kia forte, I’ve heard the Toyotas more reliable but the Kia 6yr/60k&10yr/1000kwarranty is very appealing. About a 2-3k difference. Help me out

Makes them easier to find in shopping mall parking lots. Just follow the smoke.
If you are looking for an unreliable car with a long warranty case get the Kia.
If you are looking for a reliable car but with a short warranty, get the Toyota.
Kia has a longer warranty period just to get more customers in the door. But that doesn’t mean if something breaks, they will cover it. They always find a way out of it.
Toyota doesn’t need a long warranty period to sell their cars, because they are reliable. At least more reliable than the other cars out there.
Wait until they quote you for 5 to 8 thousand dollars above MSRP. Then those Kias won't be so appealing. The 10 year warranty is not bumper to bumper it is just drive train. And don't count on them to honor it 5 years from now.
Kia warranties are bologna. They never fixes up they're supposed to correctly
Toyota
