• 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

Interesting. Dimensions are almost identical to the Telluride. Has a Diesel engine. Interior is VERY nice. Looks like there is a third screen on the passenger side?
No screen. There is some ambient lighting on the passenger-side dash.

The Mojave is body-on-frame design, just a mildly updated version of what we used to know as the Borrego. It was here and gone before anyone knew it nearly 15 years ago (only lasted one model year in the US).
 
Yea that's pretty terrible looking with the silver lower front bumper trim. I'm still likely going to upgrade from my 22' EX to a 23' SX X-line though simply due to all of the upgrades I get. My plan is to just get that lower bumper trim wrapped which might end up actually looking pretty good.
Wait, you’re going to trade in an essentially new car? Aren’t you going to get slaughtered in first year depreciation?

Not sure where you have been for the past two years, but people are selling used, late-model cars for more than new cars sell for these days, especially high demand cars like Tellurides.
 
Picked up our 22M/Y WG SX Prestige yesterday.
Sales rep said we were lucky to receive two key FOB’s.
The dealership has been informed that future arrivals will come with only one key FOB.😡
I wouldn’t be too please.

What's next? "I said three wheels, and you'll take 'em & like 'em!"
 
😂LOL You make a great point. You don’t like it, move aside, next guy will.

I don't even know how that's possible? If you lose your car key you're totally screwed. Surely Kia has other things they can remove chips from before taking an extra car key away.
 
Soup Nazi marketing strategy.....?

Saw 23 wolf gray XLine with black interior and 23 white XPro with Butterscotch interior. Agree I don’t like the lower silver bumper. The headlights take awhile to get used. Hopefully it will grow on me. I do like the butterscotch color. The pattern threading they do on the XLine and XPro is pretty cool. But I don’t think I’ll be able to order the butterscotch interior since I want bench seating. The ones I saw were all captain.

There is virtually zero depreciation with these cars these days. More like Appreciation 😂 probably will get more than they paid if they didn’t pay an insane markup.

Cool, where did you see them? Also, butterscotch is gone for the 23. It’s terracotta. So I assume it looks very similar to butterscotch?

check your prices. 2022 Telluride appraisal prices have been dropping. last couple of places I've checked have hit sub 50k values. I remember when it was as high as 57k for an AWD SX Prestige.

were you fortunate enough to grab photos?
 
No problem guys. Just need to see what the black one looks like. If the lower bumpers are still silver, it’ll contrast and not look great.

Isn’t the wolf gray nightfall since the window trim is black.?
