    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 vehicle is available now...caution before you get too excited, there is a $1999.00 addendum for some paint protection package. If that doesn't bother you call and ask for Cindy. New 2020 Kia Telluride SX With Navigation & AWD

They will NOT budge on that addendum either. I tried because they're my local dealer. Wouldn't even let me order one without the addendum. Hard pass.

Why don't dealerships use better stock photos?! All too often I see dealer listings or listings on cars.com for SX models and yet they use the stock EX pictures. It just takes a little bit of effort to get the pictures correct - even if you are just using stock photos. So frustrating.
 
They called me this morning about this and I told them I wasn't interested but that I'd let this group know it was there. They are going to be our local dealership as well in June, we're moving from Augusta, GA ...which means we'll be neighbors :-) I have a Pearl White/ Dune / SXP ordered through my favorite dealership in Muncie.

We're retired Air Force. retired Civil Service, retired lawn mowing/home owning/HOA following/big house cleaning/downsizing kinda folks :-) We are moving to the new build at Air Force Enlisted Village and cannot wait. I actually lived at Hurlburt Field as a kid for a year or so back in 69-70. Are you Air Force ?

I am. Congrats on the new housing arrangements, and welcome back to the area! It's getting better every year.

Are you by any chance a cyclist...I love to ride and found a place, Range Road just off of Eglin. Also looking for a reliable bike shop in the area. If you have any wisdom about that feel free to pass it on :) You'll make it to Muncie to get your Telly before me, I'm already jealous :-)

I’m up in Crestview and there’s at least 6 tellurides other than mine I’ve seen up here. Only two dealers in the area are Pensacola and ft walton... Ft walton has better deals.
 
Also if you are moving to the area, my wife is a mortgage loan officer and rates right. Ow are awesome. I think VA is like 2.75%

Are either of you familiar with the service department in FWB? My service dept here in Evans is stellar, the sales not so much, that's why the trip to Muncie for the purchase. We have a new Sorento as well so we will have to use FWB for service and we're hoping it's good.

Not familiar. Only dealings I had were with sales and the lady said I could get a better deal from P-cola.

I live in Crestview as well, and you'll be seeing my White SXP floating around town in about 2 months if all things go well haha.

Which you should not confuse with mine because it's exactly the same only a couple of months later with Disabled Veteran tags on it :)

they marked up our S model $4k over msrp in Pensacola, and they all have a dealer installed pinstripe (took it off asap)

think I saw you today in town. I’ve seen 2 sangrias, 1 white, 1 moss and 1 black. Mine is gravity grey. It’s at signs galore getting blacked out.

Same here in Evans, only no pinstripe...ridiculous ! I told Jason and Lucas to put the tacky license plate frame from Kia of Muncie on my car and when I pick it up I'll drive it to my local dealer and park it out front , ya know, right next to the Telly's they have with those crazy markups :)
 
Beautiful ! Any regrets at all ?

nope. We took it to Miami and back last week and it was so smooth we about fell asleep cruising at 90 on I10.

Our other vehicle is a 2018 silverado, we are about to have another baby which takes us to a family of 5. We traded in my tundra for the Telly and are loving the suv/ minivan vibe. I want to turbo it but the wife is putting her foot down.
