EX Towing Options

[meingraham]

What comes with each of the two options on the EX:

• $795 Towing package (says it includes self-leveling & hitch)
• $475 Tow Hitch w/Harness (Non-TWJ)

What's confusing me is that the Kia "build" page lets me select both... and happily adds the costs to the vehicle total.

Probably lets you select both options because the $795 is a package and the $475 is considered an accessory.But you can't get both. The difference is the towing package has the self-leveling suspension

I believe it's either/or, basically Self Leveling suspension system or not. Maybe just a bug in Telluride build page.

Some discussion on the self leveling suspension here:

Self-Leveling Suspension

Does anyone have experience with the self-leveling suspension yet? Does it have benefits for those not towing but hauling lots of people? If you don't have it does the rear end sink with a lot of weight (cargo and/or passengers)?

So hitch & harness are included in the $795 towing package. Thanks to all.

I am looking at this one for my new EX. It is suppposed to fit without cutting some trim off.
