There’s lots of edges in the world, both actual and more symbolic. Everything from the Schick Edge razor blade to the Ford Edge crossover, and plenty of edges in between. Like the edge someone might have at a new tech job if they’ve been exposed to the latest gadgets their whole life.

It’s been a few months since Kia unveiled a fun commercial that shows how many jellybeans a 2016 Kia Soul can hold compared to its competition, a Honda Fit. We’ve decided to take that one step further by comparing the 2016 Soul with several competitors like the 2016 Nissan JUKE and the 2016 Mazda CX-3 to demonstrate how much cargo room they all have, and how many Frisbees (like in the jelly beans commercial) they can hold in the cargo area as a result.

The reason why we’re excited about the upcoming NBA season is Kia has a partnership with the pro hoops league, and NBA team schedules were recently announced, so we’re busy penciling in just how many hours we’re going to devote to watching LeBron James, Kevin Durant and the rest in the coming months.
In our quick guide of the Kia NBA Tipoff for the 2016-17 season, we have a list of what to look for among opening night games, the new rookie class, and Kia-themed commercials. So stay with us; we’ll continue spinning basketballs on our elbows and knees until then.
How does the old saying go? “Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink?” Of course you wouldn’t want to drink the water of Tampa Bay, but we’re fortunate to have so many bodies of water and opportunities to go boating in the Tampa, Clearwater and St. Petersburg FL area.
Whether you enjoy the luxury of a pontoon so you can unwind with a group of friends, the athletic challenge a canoe poses or the space and power needed for fishing trips, we have a list of local pontoon, kayak, canoe and fishing charter boat rental places.

The second-generation 2017 Kia Cadenza will be strutting its stuff at an annual fashion event, and it will be a stunner at this showcase, for sure. With a new-and-improved exterior that features a choice of two bold front fascia designs – “Diamond Butterfly” and “Intaglio” – and improvements like a retuned engine, this is one large sedan that stands apart from the rest of the pack.
Look for the 2017 Cadenza’s appearance at the annual New York Spring/Summer 2017 Women’s Runway Previews, set for Sept. 12 to 15, 2016. Also on tap to be at the annual taste-making event are celebrities like Kristin Cavallari.

What do you look for in a sedan? Is it fuel economy? Style and grace? Tech options? Well, then – the 2016 Kia Optima says “check, check and check,” as it gets nearly 40 mpg on the highway, has a European-sport design that recently garnered a Red Dot Design award and it also comes with an available Harman/Kardon audio system and Apple CarPlay compatibility. So this is one sedan that knows how to roll. And Kia shows this off superbly with its new 2016 Kia Optima e-catalogue iPad virtual reality tour, which is available as a free download on iTunes.

When a young Will Smith said “Parents Just Don’t Understand” in the 1988 hit rap song, he was talking about how an older generation didn’t know how hard he had it, back when he was still a teenager. In the case of the Kia Cadenza, the second generation of this large premium sedan is being born for the 2017 model year, so we can say in a way that the previous years’ models are the parents of the upcoming Cadenza model, and though the “parents” will surely try, they may not fully understand how amazing their “kids” – the 2017 models are.
While the 2017 Kia Cadenza will surely dazzle with its redesign, it also will sport improvements in other areas. So let’s get down to it and look at details of its release.
