Order to delivery time

For 58k I’d get the explorer st with big horsepower

It's all about what you want.....I currently have an Explorer Platinum with the "interceptor engine", max capability, etc.....was looking at a 2020 Lincoln Aviator.....in the end, there is nothing out there that has the overall luxury, quality, and capability that the Telly SX P has for suchP a rediculously low price ( in comparison ) . IF this Telluride can hold up in quality........the Koreans have scored a very big accomplishment!!! ....and I am going with the SX P fully loaded!

I was one of the first people that was instantly drawn to the style and look of the new Explorer in 2013. I custom ordered a XLT with 2nd row captain seats because there was no model available besides limited. It cost me 3k to delete a seat, go figure.

The truck was riddled with defects that Ford refused to acknowledge all well within my warranty. They said since it’s a new design they have no record and will take note of my complaint. Now all my complaints are all recalls. What a joke!

Now they released a new 2020 and after being so supportive when the 13 dropped you couldn’t pay me to buy the new design even while I was being jerked for 3 months for my ordered SXP.

Yes, yes, yes! Exactly what I tell people as to why I waited and was after this truck for all these months.

We were prepared to go with the XT6 since our Telly wasn’t showing up. For the package that’s comparable to what I have in my SXP would run me 79k in the XT6.
 
I am going to be honest with you I highly doubt they will honor your MSRP price if your car comes in. The demand for SXPs is through the roof. Well that’s if you ordered a SXP.

I wish you all of the best with your mission on getting your Telly!
Thankfully, I have all the details signed by the dealership. Price, and trade in along with rebate. I asked for a copy of the offer and had the GM sign it. Hopefully that will give me leverage.

Not sure how it happened ordered first week of October took delivery this past Saturday. I guessing becuse ts a brand-new building. Old building wss small with small lot. Someone spent lots of dollars on ground up new building. Kia allocated quite a few vehicles. in last two weeks they have received 20 Tellurides. Mine was in second group of 10.
 
$8000 mark up here in TX. The dealership had the very one I wanted on the lot but would not come down. Instead I had to order the same car to get a reasonable price. Kind of crazy.

I purchased SXP Dark Moss/Dune Brown from Moritz of Fort Worth (ask for Mario Meza or Harry Draper). I put deposit down and they honored all the incentives/rebates (available at time of deposit, but had expired by the time the vehicle arrived in October). Have had it now for a month and couldn't be happier.
 
Dealer did not even ask for a deposit. Built vehicle on Kia web site emailed link. Dealer followed up with a call, reviewed options. Told me they had been allocated extra Tellurides expect to take delivery in November. Even the dealer was surprised.

Truly, I am not making this up. I had a dream last night that my ordered Telluride came in and it did not have all the equipment (options) that I ordered. ROFL! Seriously. I was then trying to decide if I should take it or not with the "missing" outings. This only shows ONE thing. That I spend too much time on this FORUM! Guess I need some other distractions. Have a Good Monday all!

I had a dream we were selling you one below MSRP. Woke up. Pinched myself. Went back to bed.
 
We ordered an S at the end of August and was told it would be 10-12 weeks. We are now at 11 weeks and were only told that it will be longer than that now.
 
We ordered our S AWD gray/gray at the end of August. We were told 10-12 weeks from the beginning. We're now at 11 weeks and no sign of it being built any time soon. Dealership said it would be longer than that now...

Did they order it for sure? I've had people reach out to me from all over the country finding out dealer never ordered buy they are waiting for a similar vehicle to arrive. Very common issue.

haha.. this is awesome. I'm on this forum more than any other site now. Actually, it helps to pass the time as we wait. We are stronger together.

Wondering if people can start posting when they ordered and when they received their Kia (or at least the vin).

I ordered an sx prestige with tow on March 13. Nothing yet.

Many of the threads here have gotten hare to follow woth with the side conversations, it would be helpful to just keep this to dates for people’s reference.
I ordered my SX prestige this morning!! Was told 3-4 months! 😞

Sounds about right. I'm almost 3 months in with a 23-Dec estimate for delivery.
