Hello! New member here from the Raleigh area in NC. Glad I found you guys, I've already learned a ton over the past month from you guys. Great to learn about the Telluride's features as well as the buying/ordering process. My dealer placed my order on 1/27. Hendrick Kia of Cary (NC061).

Looking forward to learning more!

Thank you! I'll be replacing a 2012 Honda CRV that we bought when we lived in NYC.

I replaced a 2013 CRV when I bought this car. You're gonna love the levelling up!

Hi Bills8... I too place an order with Hendrick of Cary in January (13th). I was wondering what the estimated time frame they gave you. I only got a range from 2-4 months. I'm still trying to learn more about the dealers getting a set number of allocations per month but I wish I at least had more of a planned ETA. Did you get the same time table I did? BTW I ordered EX Nightfall Premium Edition.

Hi @uncwalumni17 , I ordered mine (also EX Nightfall) on 1/27. The rep told me typically about 16-20 weeks - could be sooner but likes to be conservative just in case. She also said could be a bit faster since we ordered the EX. Hope it's closer to the estimate you got!

Me too! Thanks for replying!

@Bills8 Just wanted to share my update.... or lack of an update. I received a call from my sale rep this week saying that he was touching base but no news yet. He still felt that the the 3 month mark may be a good estimate, but thats all I got. I tried to ask where I fell in line with the ordering process but he wouldn't give me a number. :/

@uncwalumni17 Thanks for the update! I reached out to my rep yesterday to see if the Kia systems outage affected allocations or timelines at all, and she said they only came back up a couple days ago and the outage has no impact on existing orders already in the queue. She's sticking with her original 16-20 weeks from order but admits she's conservative to set expectations.

@Bills8 - I wanted to give you a heads up that I got my Vin # today... wooohooo. So my ETA as of right now is 4-2. Hoping that stays accurate.

Awesome @uncwalumni17! That’s great news! Thanks for letting me know. Hopefully I’ll get my VIN sometime over the next couple weeks. Yours is one of the Wolf Gray EXs?

 

[uncwalumni17]

Yes, I'm hoping that means yours will not be long to follow! Yes, I did get the Wolf Gray. I wanted to be a little different.

I ordered the gravity gray. It was between that and the Wolf gray.

Same here!!! I’ve always had white vehicles so I wanted a little change. Hope you hear something soon!

Hi @uncwalumni17 - I just got a call yesterday that my ETA is 5/1. Not too bad! No VIN yet as far as I can tell.
