Kia Telluride hitting the lot in Nicholasville, KY

[CarGuyLincoln]

Very nice. Great color. Great wheels. That's what mine would look like if I owned a Sorento...

Some recent badge changes I did. I only found one seller of these on ebay. Genesis wings with Sorento R in the middle. Full kit included front and rear badges, steering wheel badge, and wheel caps! Hoping I find something new for the Telluride although it's already across the hood and the rear. I will be replacing the Kia badges.

I wonder how difficult it would be to remove the " T E L L U R I D E " from the front hood. Not a fan of how that looks and suspicious of how it will wear over time.

Most dealers use the same web software...

I'd also like to know if @CarGuyLincoln has driven a Telluride yet. I'd love details on that...

I will be doing pictures, walk around, and taking everyone on a test drive like my Facebook page for updates Lincoln At Car Town Kia

We have two local Kia dealerships. The smaller one uses a regular real chat and the larger one has the annoying chat that's outsourced liked mentioned above that does nothing but ask for your contact details whether you use their website or Facebook Messenger. This dealership with the annoy chat has already turned me off before with another one of their promotions. I guess some businesses never learn they're supposed to serve the customer, not themselves.

I can help @syadasti! If you have questions just ask here.

Thanks. I was just contacting both dealers for ETA so I could test drive one, very simple question. Since you're not local I'm not sure you can do anything. Both dealers are getting them mid March.

I know Kia is trying to break into the luxury market. I assume they are trying to make a statement with the Telluride. A lot of Stinger buyers took their Kia badges off and replaced them with the cursive like Stinger badge. Most lower models have indentations where the Kia badge goes they made it smooth on the Stinger. Knowing the customer might want replace it maybe?

 

[CarGuyLincoln]

have you driven a telluride yet? we need some test drive info.

I will be taking pictures, walk around video, and take you on a test drive. I will keep everyone updated!

 

[CarGuyLincoln]

Welcome! Tell us more. What colors do you have?

I'll check in with colors. I really like the Dark Moss! They did a similar color several years back in the Kia Soul (Not Alien Green) that was very popular.

I am worried he might figure out we aren't from Kentucky.

I'm here to give everyone insight and answer any questions. Your location is not a concern.

 

[CarGuyLincoln]

How about a rough time? Months, Weeks, Days?

I hope we get surprised with a early delivery tomorrow if not the arrival date for us is February 22nd!

They just look like regular stick-on letters. They should be easy enough to remove...

Just saw a dealer kind of close to my area, between MIAMI and West Palm Beach. It has also the SX Prestige, $46910 msrp, wondering if they would go off the msrp. I do have loyalty with Kia and a couple extras, most probably most of us will need to wait til March to get the lease offers and deals for this model.

When the Forte was redesigned it took about 6 months to actually have rebates and lease incentives. I would assume this will be the same situation but may be longer. Demand is very high. Only time will tell...

Nice camera and pics!

 

[CarGuyLincoln]

I only got pics of the SX and S. I was busy all day and it was actually my day off. Tomorrow is the last day of the month and we are going into a busy weekend. I will set aside time to do a walk around and test drive video on Monday!

The reason it's flat on the Stinger is cause the Korean models have the "Stinger" script installed from the factory. We have the same hatch with holes drilled for the badge. Remove the badge and you have the holes which can easily be covered by the script.
