Ha, thanks. Well, some 2021 owners have stepped up, so that's great. I don't need to post as much anymore. The more owners, the more contributors, so that's good. It's impossible to keep up with all the questions now as we could do last year. In any event, I'll still be around. Just hoping someone else - you or MarcinTexas - can take that top poster trophy away from me.

Awesome news! Congrats @MarcinTexas

 

[DruKe]

But will he stick around after delivery? I mean, we all get so much from the graphs.

I will probably keep updating the graphs until production equalizes. At least through the end of 2020 so we have a good year end data set of production during what is becoming one of the craziest years in recent memory! Updating the graphs is entertainment for me!

 

[MarcinTexas]

Speaking of which...check out the EX Premium production...biggest month yet.

After delivery comes the phase of getting to know the Telluride and answering other people's questions. I am looking forward to getting to know more about my first KIA. Ironically - this KIA will be the highest tech car we have ever owned. Lots of features even my admittedly older Cadillac CTS didn't have on it. Of course - the Telluride has features even the new XT6 doesn't have. Mark my words - the Telluride is the vehicle that puts KIA on the map. So many people on here buying their first KIA - myself included. Looking forward to being part of the birth of KIA as a mainstream brand to really compete with the likes of Honda. No longer the "poor man's" choice.

@StephenCantrelle and others like him are at the right place at the right time. For folks in the car business - nothing beats working for a brand that starts pumping out hit after hit.

The picture is part of the deal! One of my kids and I will be flying up to pick her up. He is looking forward to some time with just dad and seeing the car before mom

As a first time KIA owner (soon to be), I agree. This isn't a one hit wonder, they have a great lineup and now the all new Sorento is coming and it looks

I love it. Great family time and a memory for sure.

Agreed. That and the new Sedona. Even though they don't sell in big numbers, the Cadenza, Stinger and K900 are class leading and deserve much better sales numbers. But more importantly they lend to the perception of quality that the brand is now strongly representing. But I bet dealers are going to have higher traffic in 2021 than ever before due to the Telluride and Sorento alone.

Something has changed. SXP production has jumped up significantly over prior "surges". Maybe KIA has finally decided to really clear the backlog.

 

[Tobstertx3]

Congrats man! Hope your wife has a quick recovery and is soon cruising around in the T.

 

[RyanATX]

so now that he has a VIN, what steps happen from here until he can pick up the T? what is the timeline?

You can see his ETA in his signature or the build schedule he has posted in another thread.
