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...

Demand for the Kia Telluride SUV is so high dealers can't keep them on their lots

I find it amazing it has been over a year since the introduction and the demand is still going strong. To all those auto enthusiasts, can you all recall any vehicle in the last 20 years which garner this many accolades, awards and interests ?
Apparently no one is buying the Telluride
Why Aren't People Buying the Kia Telluride? | MotorBiscuit
Why aren't people buying the widely popular Kia Telluride? It's one of the most talked about and awarded options, but sales are declining. Does the 2020 Kia Telluride have problems?www.motorbiscuit.com
My question is how many competitors to Kia did “MotorBiscuit” solicit to write that counter marketing piece and pass themselves off as a credible news source educating the public? It might as well be the American Heart Association selling their seal to the highest bidder by selectively publishing science that promotes whomever paid them.

yeah, read the article and wondered what world he came from. But in these days of fake news spin, I can see people not doing any research and buying into it. I was LOL at the idea of no one wanting to buy a Telluride. Are there people who don't want to wait and go elsewhere? Yup, but people not wanting to buy them, what an idiot.

I haven't done any research on other trims except what I want (SX-P/T) but I have seen a lot of lower trim Telly's sitting around but I have no idea for how long. I think I read an article on Jalopnik that said even for those models their expected time on the lot was much lower than industry average so I'm not sure what MotorCookie's angle is. Clearly these cars are selling or else I wouldn't be faced with 6-10K markups in my area.
If you look at the the other articles by the Author they are articles with attention seeking, drama inducing headlines: Allison Barfield, Author at MotorBiscuit.com The theme seems rather obvious. The few positive spins are for Jeep and Toyota, so maybe that's who gave her a free loaner car for the negative spin on the competitor?
