    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...

Added two Tellurides to our fleet after only a 3 month wait, and so far the decision couldn’t have been any better! There were a few early issues with the delivery from our dealership, just some scratches and damaged trim pieces but none of it was representative of the quality of the suv. This forum is PACKED with information; thank you to everyone on here for that! So, a little background, our “fleet” was entirely Honda until now. We have two 2020 Passports, two 2020 Accords, and the Tellurides replaced the two 2019 Pilots we had. If these cars continue to impress us we’re definitely going to be replacing the other Honda’s down the road. Not to come bash on Honda but we’ve had terrible luck with all of them. One was bought back as a lemon and replaced, and all of the others have had extensive repairs performed. Everything from transmissions, transfer cases, steering racks, constant electrical failures/stalling issues, they have been so unreliable for us. Really hoping these Tellurides can break the bad luck streak! Haha. They’re both a 2021 SX-Prestige with AWD and towing, in Gravity Grey and Moss Green. The features just blow our previous cars out of the water. I know Honda is releasing a new Pilot soon but I was NOT sticking around for it lol. Looking forward to all of the customization and fun I’ll be having thanks to this forum.

Went with the grey Nappa on both because it just felt very open and bright, but I don’t think there’s a wrong color to choose. We own a small family business (clothing and home-goods stores) and everyone gets a car for personal and work use. We ditched the Pilots first because they were the worst offenders for breakdowns... I’m just lucky that one of them was my car so I get the upgrade haha. It actually broke down with tranny problems for the 4th time right after we traded it! I totally expect all cars to have occasional repairs, but these things spent more time being towed than being driven.

You have any pics of interior on the gravity grey one. My wide and I got gravity grey but in Canada only available color was black and she wanted grey. I’d like to show her what it would have looked like. If you don’t mind.

I don’t have any pictures that show the interior and exterior in the same shot, like with the door open. But I do have a few of the interior by itself if it helps any. Does the Limited in Canada still have the upgraded headliner? I’m still learning all of the differences.

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your brand new Tellurides! I'm glad you found us. :)

Thanks for the quick pics. No upgraded headliner at all, us Canadians get the short end of the stick when it comes to options and color choices. No upgraded headliner, no Dune brown seats, no black SX wheels, no 10 year warranty, etc lol. Nightsky can only come with black interior. Sx limited non nightsky can get the grey seats with a few exterior colours I think just white, black or dark moss.
