  • 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...

Generally a bit of stock around me, having trouble deciding between the S and EX. If I could get an EX with the 20s and captains chairs, I’d already have bought. Not interested in the additional 5K on an SX for what amounts to options I don’t want.
 
Doesn't the poll need another option? Something like "Wanting to order but can't". I want to order a Black Copper SXP with the towing package and Dune Brown interior but can't. :( I even DM'd Kia USA on Twitter about when the ordering process will open up and they said, and I'm paraphrasing, duuuh... I don't know.

Yeah if I had foreseen how many people would be in your situation I would’ve added that option :LOL:
 
Ordered my Dark Moss SX (non-prestige) on 4/23. ETA of 7/8 for delivery (about 10 weeks). It might take longer for a recent order.. :( I also wanted butterscotch, but at the time of my order, the dealer told me Kia was not taking orders with butterscotch. I ordered with espresso. I think i will love it when i see it. Dealer said there is a chance it will be here before the holiday weekend!

Wow! Let’s hope it comes early for you! How funny we ordered just about the same car! We were toying with espresso vs butterscotch. Both looks so amazing on the cars. 10 weeks is about what I’m expecting to wait.... but hoping for sooner! As I’m sure everyone is! 😊 we go to Colorado in 6 weeks or so and i thought the telluride would be perfect for a road trip like that!
 
i have an SXP...white with dune brown. ordered it in april, and picked it up in june. i have owned just about everything...mercedes, bmw, audi, porsche, alfa romeo, range rover, and acura. i never owned a jaguar. with the exception of the alfa, the telluride was the first car i bought because i was attracted to both the exterior and interior.
i've been driving mine for about 2 weeks now, and i will say this...
this kia telluride is as fine an automobile as any of the aforementioned. it is tighter, quieter, and more driver friendly than all of the above. if the telluride continues to perform like it has these last two weeks, this is the best vehicle decision i've made.

You probably want to go with EX. The real leather as well as bigger info screen/nav is worth it IMO. You can also get 20" wheels down the road if you want. I was in the same boat, so decided to just get the SX.
 
Stop twiddling your thumbs and get out there and put in some work!!! Search nationwide and have the car shipped.

I have and I'm still doing that. Nobody has exactly what I want; not willing to compromise and I'm not in a hurry. The twiddling is in reference to waiting to order.

Wait it our for you are wanting to order what i got yesterday. You will love the combination of Black Copper and Brown dune. I waited on mine 96 days ago. also rumors have it now more black coppers with brown til late fall. so sorry you have to wait and we all know KIA dropped the ball on this. Anyway it is well worth the wait,

That’s the direction I’m leaning. Plus power lift gate, vented seats and dual zone climate.
