Just a little jog out to the mountains.
Looks like a fun drive! Heading out to the countryside tonight.Just a little jog out to the mountains.
Went out to the country but forgot to take pictures. AWD was great while I drove along a dry riverbed to a ranch for the weekend!Looks like a fun drive! Heading out to the countryside tonight.
Limited parking on the wharf so cool pictures were tough to come by. Gotta say tools from working on an MGA, fishing gear, and a couple overnight bags fit perfectly. Added bonus - fancy enough for the valet at the hotel while looking way nicer than the plain SUVs there!Today its a trip the beach to go surf fishing....
Follow up - Make certain to keep checking items off your bucket list. A few weeks after this trip, South Lake Tahoe was evacuated due to fires! Here is a picture of the smoke on the day we left.So, back from another road trip. Went to Lake Tahoe for a week. Well over 1200 miles total. Was a dream to drive. Averaged about 32 MPG. Some dirt and gravel roads so used the AWD!

Thanks for the post. I've been thinking about a lift kit as well. As I use the KIA for camping, the AWD capability has opened up many new campgrounds!View attachment 1350
Took my Seltos on an off-road trail that recommended a true 4x4. It did really well, a lot better than I thought it would. AWD Lock and Hill Decent Control worked great. About 45 mins of getting beat on. I've seen no off-road reviews of the 2.0L w/ CVT. Crawled the whole way. I had no overheating, something did smell hot after about 30 min but kept trucking like a champ. Made it as far as the Jeeps and modded Tacomas did before starting my 5hr hike. Didn't get any pictures of the action since I was by myself. Will be adding a lift and tires soon.
I'll be taking the Seltos on a 6500km road trip in about 1 month from Canada, down through the western USA. We will be making a stop in Moab UT for a few days and will have to try some trails out there. I will defiantly post how it does.Thanks for the post. I've been thinking about a lift kit as well.

Safe travels! I was recently in Brice and Zion UT. Absolutely amazing. Looking forwards to stories and photos of your adventures in the Seltos.I'll be taking the Seltos on a 6500km road trip in about 1 month from Canada, down through the western USA.
