Congratulations and welcome to the club. Plenty of forums here about upgrading the car, but curious what you have in mind before even taking delivery?
Thanks!
My Telly came with the Kia mud flaps. Sorry I don't have much for good pictures (especially of the rear) but see attached for how the fronts look. I have the weathertech front and middle floor mats and love them, cannot attest to 3rd row though as I will rarely use the row so did not opt for that part of the set. The fit is amazing and they are easy to clean. I have a ToughPro cargo mat, however that rolls up when 3rd row in use so I do not think you are quite looking for that (though with a small bit of cutting you could alter the mat so it attached to rearside of 2nd row and the remainder of mat sets in place in the cargo area, might work well for you). I know ToughPro also makes front, middle, and 3rd row mat options and they are the same design as my cargo mat, so from a theoretical standpoint I would think the quality would be great and they would probably be laser fit very nicely, it would come down to whether you like the honeycomb design. Not sure what you mean about 'full factory lights'. As far as performance I know some people have enjoyed the pedal commander and how it has helped a bit with performance (search the forums here for it and you will see their thoughts, it appears to still be available for purchase from the Telluride Store).
How do you like the Kia mud flaps? The Kia ones appear sleeker than the weather tech, but also not sure they stop as much debris from flinging all over the place? I really liked the color you purchased on the Telly’s but wife really wanted a white one.
My job regularly takes me and my Telly into sand and gravel pits when dry and dusty and also when complete mud holes, so I collect a lot of gunk on the car regularly. As you can see from the previously shared close-up photo of the front mud guards the fine rock dust really gets into the black plastic along the bottom of the car sides and the guards are not as effective as I would hope for keeping debris cleared off the plastic cladding. The same issue prevails with the rear mud guards and plastic trim. I am debating looking for something to replace the Kia guards for that reason, but I would otherwise be perfectly happy with them for all other purposes like on road use and the occasional back road drive. They worked well keeping snow/slush off the car last winter, it's really just the mud that I have problems with and to be fair that will probably be the case with any car and any mud guard, so I just need to learn to deal and detail better

We are replacing a Dodge Charger R/T. We felt it would be safer for her and the babies to get an AWD vehicle. Nothing like living in the farmlands of wisconsin in the winter time. LolWelcome aboard!
