For all the award-winning news we keep sending your way about our new and used cars here at Fred Anderson Kia, it's been a good long while since had some green news to share with you folks. To be honest, we have no idea what's been taking us. Because if there's one automaker out that's leading the eco-friendly charge, you can bet it's the brass at Kia.

A few months back, we here at Fred Anderson Kia told you all about how the gang at Kelley Blue Book named the 2013 Kia Soul as one of their Best Car Deals for Under $15,000. Oh yes, it was quite the cause for celebration and it was one more thing to love about the new and used cars at our dealership. And after a win like that, we figured it was only a matter of time before Kelley Blue Book came knocking again.

A few months ago, we here at Fred Anderson Kia told you fine folks all about the 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid that our favorite automaker modeled after Wonder Woman. Needless to say, it was one of the more attention-grabbing vehicles we'd seen as of late, and while it probably won't be joining our new and used car lineup anytime soon, at least we have an idea of what's up next.

Remember when we here at Fred Anderson Kia told you all about how excited we were to take Blake Griffin to the house in our favorite automaker's new Facebook game? Since then, many hours have been consumed trying to digitally posterize one of the best in the NBA, and if we didn't have our new and used cars to keep us grounded, there's a good chance we could have turned into full-blown hermits.

Take it from us, folks: there's good reason why we're so fond of our favorite automaker here at Fred Anderson Kia. For all the OEMs out there, it never ceases to amaze us how rare it is to find affordability and performance that go hand-in-hand. As our lineup will show you, our new and used cars are very much an exception to that rule. And if the recent pricing figures for the 2014 Kia Cadenza are any indication, the fondness continues to grow.

After a long day of working ourselves to the bone here at Fred Anderson Kia, it helps to take the edge off when it's time to clock out. Some of us watch TV, some of us read a book, and some of us have even taken to playing video games as of late. And while some of you might be wondering what a bunch of new and used car salespeople are doing playing XBOX when they get home, it's actually quite the cathartic hobby.

As much as we wish it weren't so, everyone on Earth has had a bad experience with customer service. What can we say, some companies just don't know how to treat their customers, and as far as we're concerned here at Fred Anderson Kia, that's not just bad business, that's unacceptable. After all, the golden rule is just as relevant in the business world as it is anywhere else, and when someone comes into our dealership looking to buy a new or used car, we make sure it's as pain-free as humanly possible.

Last month, we here at Fred Anderson Kia told all you fine folks about the fleet of Kia models that got an overhaul courtesy of DC Entertainment. Needless to say, our inner nerds were bursting at the seams, and while the debates that ensued were heated to say the least, the general consensus was that the 2013 Kia Soul modeled after Green Lantern reigned supreme. Not that we don't have love for all the new and used cars at our dealership, but what can we say, it's hard not be partial towards the Soul.
