    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...

Just ordered our 2022 Kia Telluride SX with the Prestige and Tow Packages today from Kings Kia in Cincinnati, OH! Glacial Pearl White with Black Interior. Very excited to Join the group. We are moving from a Lexus RX350 and can’t be happier to make this move. We are hoping the process moves efficiently and effectively. Thanks for letting us be part of the community.

We also moved from an RX350 to a 2021 SXP. The Lexus was a great problem free vehicle but you will love the Telluride.

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. Congratulations on your brand new Telluride! I'm glad you found us. :) When doing your test drives, how did the Telluride feel compared to your Lexus RX350? What year is it, by the way?

The Telluride is tighter and more responsive. Even though it is bigger, it was easy to see and maneuver. Our RX350 is a 2015.

Hey there! And congrats on the order. How was your experience with Kings? Are they saying 6-8 months like others? We are close to that dealership and thinking about upgrading our 21 telluride to a 22

Nice! Ordered with Kings on 12/31/21. Talked to them yesterday and they thought order may be picked up this week or next. Was told approximately 6 weeks to produce after being picked up. Good luck on your ETA!

I ordered from Kings on 12/31/22. I was talking to my salesperson the other day and he said they are only accepting orders from those within a 20 mile radius of the dealership now. They get about 30-40 Tellurides a month. Very high volume dealer, but they couldn’t keep up with all the out of area requests.

Congrats! I think you’ll really appreciate the trunk space that the Telly offers over the RX!

I was told by my salesperson at Kings, 6 weeks average after order pick up. Sounds like you are still in good shape. Mine hasn’t been picked up as of yet.

How was the closing process with kings? We have one on order there as well. Was it pretty straightforward? Congratulations!

Also, do you remember how long it was until they contacted you with any information?

Kings Kia has been great. They started communication as soon as the order was picked up by Kia. The closing process only took 45 minutes and the delivery process was quick and efficient.
 
I ordered a 2022 Kia Telluride S in Dark Moss on 1/31/22 from Kings Kia in Cincinnati and I was notified today that the ETA is 3/29. Still no VIN and I don't see anything resembling it recently in failcat for that dealership. Hopefully this gives others some idea insights into how order processing at Kings is going.
