KIA Telluride Owner Roll Call!

[Zerati]

Ours is finally here, pictures to come.

A 2022 Gravity Grey SX/ Nightfall w/ Tow package
Already we have placed the Tuxmats.
I am currently getting a forward and rear dash cam installed. We are currently between homes and our current place does not have a garage.
In two weeks I already have scheduled a full front PPF install and a full body ceramic coating applied.

We have a tendency to keep our vehicles for a long time and I want to make sure this one is protected.

There are other things we are thinking about. Ill update later.

Picked it up yesterday and got it tinted first thing this morning.

Please check your State and local law's regarding the darkness that is allowed. You could get a ticket and have to have it removed.
just saying cause it happened to me in Minnesota a few years back. The tinting store can kind of gloss over the laws.

Appreciate it TELCO- sorry that happened to you.

These are a touch lighter than my old car and I never got hassled- see a ton of cars in CO that are limo tinted and have the windshield done too…for the most part here, they don’t give you trouble unless you give them a reason to.

I drive like a grandpa (much to my wife’s chagrin) and it’s still light enough where you can see in the front two windows. The handful of times I’ve been pulled over I always make sure to pull well over to the shoulder, turn off the vehicle, roll down all windows & turn on interior lights, and always keep both hands clearly visible on the wheel. When I’m asked for any documents, I tell the officer where I’m going to reach to get the documents before I even move.

I’ve been in those situations where you don’t know what the other party’s intentions or motives are and that’s how I’d preferred them to act- so I act accordingly. Majority of the time the officer doesn’t want to write a ticket and just wants to feel safe.

Sorry for the tangent- hope you’re enjoying your Telluride so far!

I believe our Telly's looks night and day when the windows are tinted darker darker including the front they don't have to be extreme just darker than a factory.
I might say a little bit tougher looking

I did get my front door windows tinted to match the rest of my Telluride. It looks great.

Thanks! Didn't think it would do well in the soft desert sand but it just hovers over it with ease! Very impressive!

Congratulations!! Beautiful pictures. I’ve heard it helps to lower the tire pressure on sand. Did you have to adjust the driving modes at all?

Yes switched to sand mode and let some air out the tires.

Appreciate that and couldn't agree more. Love seeing everyone's Mods. Recently added stripes to the hood and had the calipers dipped. So happy with the way it turned out.
