    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Hey guys, just arrived in Canada a month ago and we are planning to get one in white. Supposed to get a Subaru Outback but my wife and I decided to get a Telluride instead.

Welcome to Canada! There's a small group of fellow Canuckians here who love their Tellys.

Whereabouts are you located? I'm in the GTA. Depending on where you are, someone might be able to recommend a dealer, unless you already have one.

GTA as well. That would be a great help! We haven't have the chance to look around yet and I'm just about to get a G1 test, so it will still be awhile before I get to drive it.

Right, okay. So depending on how far you're willing to travel, people can make recos. I purchased my Telly at Georgetown Kia at $1250 under MSRP. But they PILE ON the dealer add-ons, so my "under MSRP" basically deleted their crazy dealer adds.

Welcome!! Orangeville Kia did right by me. Email Ryan (see contact page on their website). Excellent pricing. No pressure. Seamless sale. 60 days from order to delivery.

Yeah depending on total cost and distance. Thanks for your price info, I needed that, Getting an SX AWD as well, because we are after then bench seats for future use.

Right, exactly my car, different colour. If you want to look it over sometime, let me know.

Watch out for their fees! They're hard headed about it.

I bought it off the lot. The car I wanted was just sitting there. Did they give you an ETA?

No ETA from kia yet but their estimate is 2-3 month.

We bought at MSRP + all their fees/add-ons. The only thing we were able to get is a free hitch

Their fees are madness, but so it goes. You're gonna get a wicked nice car!

What did you order? We want deets. Trim, colour....etc.

Not sure, probably dealer installed.

SX Limited Nightsky gravity grey with black interior

We wanted the captain for best possible 2nd row comfort as we always have someone sitting there by the car seat.

Upgrading from a 2010 Subaru Outback, it was a great car but it's really lacking the rear passenger comfort.

I also ordered the SX Limited Nightsky in Gravity Grey w/ Black Interior. And for the same reasons. Our current vehicle has become too crammed with baby, coupled with our lifestyle.

Our order was placed on December 18th and, if I'm reading this forum right, the Kia ordering system open' up once a month (the 15th of each month) so I guess I wouldn't have initial eligibility until January 15th. In addition, dealership allotment plays a role based on what I've read here too.

That said, I've seen others on this forum get their vehicle in Canada around 8 weeks after order; however, those orders we placed right before the 15th.

I am patiently waiting here in Vancouver.

We are in the same boat, ordered on the 28th.

Could the Canadian ordering system work differently?

Perhaps that's a possibility - and I'm hoping it is - but others would need to confirm this.

That's a sweet ride. Gravity Grey was my second colour choice. I wanted a bench seat, so I got the straight SX.

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I'm glad you found us! What might the Telluride be replacing for you?
