Bottomline A price that’s much less than the competition is the strongest appeal of the 2009 Kia Sorento, which boasts good towing capacity and all-weather traction but doesn’t stack up to modern crossovers in other ways. The 2008 Mercury Mountaineer is what an Explorer looks like in lipstick and heels.
