  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    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...

I apologize in advance if I didn't post in the correct forum. Just thought this info would be helpful to someone who is in desperate need of a Telly now in the Bay Area. I know I would have appreciated it. The wait almost killed me. And I'm tired of the local dealerships gouging customers and their ridiculously insane markups of $10K + upwards! If this is you, read on. :)

I put in an order for my Telluride at 2 different dealerships because of the low markup and was told I would have a considerable wait. Finally received my dream Telly 2 months ago. I hadn't canceled the other order because honestly I doubted it would ever come to reality, and truth be told - work had been crazy of late so it was not a priority for me. Fast forward, got a call this week and was told it will be coming in end of Oct. Say what? Lol!

It's a FULLY loaded 2022 SX AWD Prestige/NF, Gravity Gray with gray interior plus Towing. There is a $2K dealer markup. Other than that it's priced as invoiced. If this is what you are looking for and in the timeline you need, lemme know. I'd hate to cancel the order and give the dealership even more incentive to sell it at a higher markup because I cancelled. If I messed up and should post elsewhere, please let me know. This wasn't intentional by any means. I really appreciate this forum for all the valuable info it has given me.

Hi, I am interested! I live in LA and I have an order in at a dealer in Colorado for that build except for the interior color (Black). My wife was concerned about the lighter leather color with our three kids but I do think it looks better. I am willing to pay the 2k markup to avoid the Colorado to Cali road trip during winter. Can you tell me what your MSRP was for this build? Any accessories you ordered with it? I only ordered the carpet floor mats and cargo cover to my build. Also, it’s just 2k over? No dealer add-on shenanigans? If this works out, I can hop on a Southwest flight to San Jose and pick this up in no time. Thanks!

Great. Be happy to provide all the info you need. How about you message me your number and I can easily break it down for you via phone?

Once with all the info @ hand this still interests you, then you can move forward. 😊

Same goes to anyone interested - just message me a contact number and I’d be happy to share. Good luck to all those looking for a Telly!

I have no option of sending a private message or starting a private conversation through this forum. It looks like that is not an available function here. I created a throw-away gmail account so that we can communicate off line and I don’t have to worry about spam bots picking up my personal email address. Please send me your email address or phone number to kiatelly116@gmail.com. Thanks.
 
Odd, I’m able to message people via the mail icon @ the top. Just have to plug in my username. But I have responded directly to the email you listed.
 
I did a search in the forum and it looks like some people have the option and others don’t. Oh well. I have responded to your email. Thanks.
 
I live in the San Jose area, so feel free to connect if Intel40 has a change of heart!

Sounds good. I promised to contact him today. Just message me what’s the best email address to reach you at. And as a courtesy, I’ll follow up and let you know status. Take care!
 
Thanks. I, too, can't seem to PM, so if anything changes with Intel40 feel free to message me at my gmail address at ezinbox6200. Thanks.

Why did you order two? Is that so the artificial demand could last longer for the rest of us?

I live in Huntington Beach and would like to know how I would go about buying the car. Please reply if the car is still available.

Can you share thr dealer info? I have not been able to find any dealer in Sf Bay Area with that low markup.
 
My understanding things have changed since I put in my orders. Check out:
Hilltop Kia
Modesto
Salinas

Good luck!
