• 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...

The KIA Telluride in Everlasting Silver

🤖 AI Summary

No AI summary has been generated for this thread yet.
My wife liked the Silver the best so that’s what we ordered. A plus is it doesn’t cost $495 like a lot of the other colors do.
 
I'm really torn between everlasting silver and black copper or wolf gray! Help! Waiting for Wolf Gray pics. What impression between all three colors and why you like it
Those are all so different. I would say everlasting is blueish gray and never silver. Wolf gray look up for the K5

My wife is picking up ours now. We have a 2012 silver Sorento, and she wasn't thrilled about having the same color. She just texted that she loves it, and it "is more blue than silver."

Enjoy! Even in direct sun light it never really looks silver

Either way (silver or blue) we know it’s everlasting😜
 
I hand washed and applied Sonax PNS polymer coating to the exterior. Here are some pics.

Would you be able to post a pic straight on from behind the car? I see you have the towing package and I am looking to get this same exact color combo and wanted to see how the tow looks on it. I don't really need the tow in the near future, but figured for the money it's better to just get it now. I honestly think it looks kind of ugly on the non-nightfall, so I was hoping the nightfall would hide it better and not take away from the asthetics of the car. Thanks in advance!

Yes, of course. Here you go Shane. I took the hitch cover off so you can see it at its worst. I will take more pics later outside of the garage, in its element.

Thank you so much for the pics! That actually blends in very nicely! Congrats on the new ride. I'm jealous as I will probably have to wait awhile for mine, but you definitely helped in my decision making.

You will not be disappointed with this combination. Just need to be careful as some will stop you to ask you about the car :)

I ordered same color, but the SX Prestige with tow. Love the looks in the photo.

We're you given an ETA on when you would get the car? I talked to a dealer that said 3-6 months and then another one that said a year and a half(not sure how that could be right), so I'm not sure what to expect when I put in my order.

I first ordered with the dealer in April. But KFOS was closed due to COVID. My dealer confirmed my order as being accepted thru KFOS on July 23. They have me an ETA of 10/04. I check FailCat everyday and my VIN has not yet been created. So with dealers, they get certain allotments every month. High volume dealers get more. You need to ask the dealer how many other orders are in front of you and how many allotments are they getting per month. That’s why you have such a variable range of when to expect delivery. Some can be as short as 3-6 months while others are longer. Depends on allotments each dealer gets every month and they amount of orders pending in front of yours. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the great info! That makes more sense and definitely helps. I'll check with the dealer as you suggested.

Some dealers will not give up that information. But if you go to FailCat, you can see how many tellurides they are allocated each month. Search these forums for FailCat and they walk you through on how to navigate it. Also, Stephen Cantrell has a lot of information on how the entire process works. Read the threads “From order to Delivery”. There’s a lot of good information there.

Also read the thread entitled “latest Information on ordering through KFOS. This makes it easy to understand the process.
 
I’ve joined the Everlasting Silver club! Found a 2021 SXP at MSRP so I jumped at it. It’s everything they say it is.
