• 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...

2023 Kia Telluride Discussion

duplicate. deleted.
 
Why second thoughts? It should be fine.
just white might look as slick or should I order something else? I didn't want a dark car, so was thinking of white or wolf gray. Wifey thinks white, so at this moment ordered white

I was kind of “quiet” from feb to a few days ago with my guy. But now knowing my car of choice is made and up to bat. Ima be a little louder and hopefully be the squeaky shell that gets the grease eh?

I think the white would be ok. I chose white but wolf gray was my second choice. I personally feel like wolf gray is a fad color so opted against it.
 
Confirmed the 2023 Telluride comes with a spare tire! Or does it? Anyone know for sure if it comes with a spare?
Of course it comes with a spare.
 
Can anyone confirm that there is a tow recovery point on the front of the 2023 model? I saw a square cutout in pre-production models that appeared to be a recovery point, but can't seem to tell on the vehicles that showed up at dealers this week.

I'm going to answer my own question I think. I do see the same square cutout on the dawning red photos, so I assume this is a recovery point.

It is on every single car I have seen pictures of.

Furthermore, here is info in the manual:1664664491353.webp
 
I think we now know why the tow package hitch is not available yet - they just recalled several years worth of Kias and Palisade to fix the tow harness - probably need all they have for the recalls.
 
Does anyone have any contacts in southern california dealers for low price mark ups?
 
Ok dealership came alllll the way down on the over MSRP, so I have officially placed my order. I ordered a SXP X-Line in white, with black interior. I’m happy to have that behind me. Now I wait…..
Same order here, now we race to wait for it.

I did get MSRP pricing, since my March 22 order was also at MSRP canceled. Dealer added $5k MA two days after our original order.
