• 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... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

We have an SX and love it, but it took a good two weeks to learn and get comfortable with all the tech: cameras, buzzers, alerts, vibrating steering wheel, self correcting steering, and so forth. I have joked with my adult son that he will have to get "rated" on the equipment before he can borrow it. We're also wondering how things would go if we let a valet park it. Am I paranoid, or is it easy for a driver new to the vehicle to hop in behind the wheel?

If somebody is unable to drive the Telluride because they are scared of the safety features it has, they probably have no business driving a car made in the 21st century. The driver assist functions are there to prevent accidents, not cause them for drivers hopping into the Telluride for the first time.
 
I think all the Telluride's tech and features are quite common in new vehicules. You'll find the same assists in pretty much any BMW, Audi or Mercedes for example so I wouldn't be too worried.
The great thing about is Kia is the fact you get all these features for way less money than the competition ;)
