In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help.

The KIA Telluride in Dark Moss

We have black. It's easier to keep clean than they Gray which is almost white.

Black here as well. Didn't consider other colors due to the contrasting seat back color with the other leather colors.
 
We had the gray in one of our sorentos and the jeans would bleed onto it.. it wasn't fun keeping them clean, thus the black this time.

Ordered an EX with Premium package in Dark Moss-black interior at the end of January at local dealer then switched to another dealer out of state (thank you Luther Kia!) after joining this forum and finding out how dealer allocations work and that I would have months of waiting. It was delivered to my house today and I am very happy with the color and the car overall. Also considering blacking out the rims.
We have 2 tweens and decided that the gray, which is very light, was not an option 😁 Although I’m not lovin the white sunscreen smears on the black interior this summer either!
 
For those of you that own or have at least seen in person the Dark Moss with Gray or Black leather interior, which combo looks nicer? It's hard to tell based on photos alone and there aren't too many on dealer lots these days. I am planning on ordering an EX AWD with Premium package in Dark Moss soon, so the only interior colors to choose from are the gray and black.

I have black, but its the napa leather, and it looks amazing
 
I put my deposit down today. With my young kids, the arguments in favor of black won out. The dealer suggested it as well.
 
The way I see it is this. Grey will lighten up the cabin more (I presume) but the fact that it hides dirt/dust better, for me, is a disadvantage in that with my black interior, I can see the dust/dirt and am more likely to clean it. Although ours is only about 2 months old, I have never seen my kids work so hard to keep the interior clean and to wipe up after themselves. I am sure it will taper off...but grey for me is 'out of sight, out of mind'. At least that's what I am telling myself for not getting gray, LOL!

Gray. More luxurious and cleaner look.

That was my reasoning for my last 2 cars being silver. I'm probably in for a shock having the dark moss but I just love the color. The dealer showed me someone else's Telluride that had the grey, and it was much lighter than I expected. I have 2 kids 5 and under that would turn it black anyway.
 
We had to make a decision last night between putting a deposit down on a Moss SX-P with Grey interior or a Moss SX Nightfall with Black. We have two teens and two big dogs so we went for the black interior. Should be here around the 30th. Super excited.

The Gray is super light. The black is black. personally preference, but the gray will show dirt much more. My wife has a moss green SX with espresso interior. Moss green is by far the nicest color IMO. Good luck.

After seeing how light the gray was in a Telluride they had (just about to be picked up), I opted for the black as well due to the kids.

Picked up SXP telluride in dark moss and light grey interior.

Got it tinted, added Yakima jet stream bars, addd weathertech Matts, rebadged front back and wheels !! Ready to roll...love it !!

Except for the bars I have exactly the same vehicle right down to the alt badging and the WeatherTechs. I took delivery of the very first SXP In Seattle in March of 2019 and it continues to turn heads everywhere I go.

Hubby and I went in this weekend to do our paperwork on the SX Moss Nightfall we have on the way. I was so happy that they had a Moss S there that i was able to see the color in person as the owner was taking delivery right after we arrived. I was also able to see the first Nightfall to arrive in ID as well. It was a black SX with black interior. Loved the Nightfall but was happy we went with the Moss over the black.
 
Wait til you wash it up close (by hand) for the first time. The Moss has just an extraordinary sheen in the sunlight. Unlike any other color I’ve ever hand washed.

Are you buying in Boise and are you getting the Moss that was originally due end of July? If so do you have an updated time estimate? Im getting the white SX P/T that was due end of August and now they are saying end of September but nothing specific yet. Trying to narrow it down.
