Got a ‘24 SX X-Line last month for my gf and we and love it so far! They’re assembled in GA and come with Michelin tires. SX begins to add things such as second sunroof, Harmon Kardon, Homelink, etc. my biggest “complaint” is the front grill grid is a bit difficult to clean the bugs from in summer, so you should consider keeping it well waxed or coated so that you can get clean it better with a wet cloth and/or detailing brush. The seat perforations can also catch crumbs from your kids, so you’ll need to be aware and prepared for that! These are sleek, comfortable, quiet, and won’t disappoint.
@@zachdavis4038 It was billed at MSRP (in August) but they gave $2K over on my trade… in conjunction with that we totaled 80% down and only financed $14K at 5% APR, coming out to $330 /month for 48 months. At this juncture I see lots of Tellurides “piling up” on lots across the US - they were once selling out off the trucks, but now I see 5-10 on the lot per dealer… I don’t see why one couldn’t get below MSRP on the bill of sale now.
Great car but I can't get one even though each KIA dealer has on average 10-15 telluride on the lot, they are still charging $5--$10k over MSRP like it's 2020
@@moneymaker7958 that kinda doesn’t make sense but good job trying to sound above the consumer. They offer like 9 trims with one with 8 passengers and it’s an SUV …sooooo crazy to wish they offer 8 in other trims
Which model is for me? I want fwd with 18inch rims, Gray or silver, Powered tail gate, Fog lights, Remote start, Wireless charging pad Blk leather seats, Sunroof not need but not a deal breaker Dont need self leveling Im ok with 8 or 7 seats.
Not vehicle specific but why don't manufactures just make cars like they did in 1990? Too many unused features that could go away in place of better reliability. Still driving around my 05 LeSabre just waiting for the right new car to come along.
The Pro tieres are LOUD. I drove the SX Prestige X-Line Pro, then the SX Prestige X-Line. I had to drive the Pro again, and yup, too loud. We went with the SX Prestige X-Line. Jungle + Sage Green.
the thing we care about most is if 2n row seats can be removed easily. We want to have the ability to turn this into basically cargo van vehicle during certain days for our business. Thanks if anyone has this info.
@@JT_70 not the same. Huge miss by Toyota who used to build them with 2nd row seats that could be removed. We want option to turn our minivan basically into cargo van (for our business). Only Odyssey and Kia Carnival have 2nd row seating that can be removed. Kia are getting stolen like candy right now. That leaves only the Odyssey for us which is about 10k cheaper than Sienna.
My 4 runner was a lemon crap trany. Looked at the grand Highlander before I bought the telluride… reviews were crap on the 24 ev1 was having major engine problems and Toyota wouldn’t warranty them even when they all had less than 1 k miles in them.
Great review. One thing to add- The SX Prestige models are the only models with the digital rear view mirror.
Really great breakdown video. I wish everyone did this kind of excellent detailed and easy to follow breakdown for every major high selling vehicle

hi, how much does it cost u?
If you don't mind me asking what was the total cost and monthly payments?

That sucks.. I got mine $4,250 under msrp
Hate that Kia doesn’t offer 8 passengers in higher trim models
Human being , we're never satisfied. I hate that Lexus doesn't offer 7 seats in his 500+ 😂😂😂😂
Agreed I didn't realize that until this video and am now completely changing my mind on this vehicle that I was previously excited about

They would have to make an all new platform for an 8 passenger SUV
Yup. Would be nice.
You missed that you need SX to get Homelink .
Which model is for me?
I want fwd with
18inch rims,
Gray or silver,
Powered tail gate,
Fog lights,
Remote start,
Wireless charging pad
Blk leather seats,
Sunroof not need but not a deal breaker
Dont need self leveling
Im ok with 8 or 7 seats.
Are these prices attainable or are they still ballooning the prices? Anyone know? I’m in the NY region.
I think we're over the up-charging that we saw during covid. The car market is becoming more buyer-friendly

Why not take it to Moab? We went down the switchbacks at Canyonlands NP with our daughter's Sedona.
Any input on improved reliability and new recalls!!???
So many trims 🤯
It's a lot, for sure. They could probably tighten it up a bit.
@@AutoTraderthey really should. It’s kinda confusing and it took me a lot of studying to figure out the differences 😅
This vid definitely helps
I like it how it was back in 2020 where they only had 5 trims lol
Got my sx prestige Xline
Is the check engine light in the background an omen for what’s to come with the Telluride?

If I changed the tires immediately, would the X-Line Pro be okay? Or was there another issue other than tire noise
The base models are worth it. But the ones over 50k have the same engine. For that price just go for a Genesis GV80
but can you get one with hitch/ receiver and electrical from factory yet?
The one we just purchased has the complete towing package.
@@JT_70 which model was that? first time i've heard of this
Why can't i take it to Moab?
Ok thanks smg
How do you think it will fair up the Utah canyons during snow season? Active ice and snow on the ground?
Have AAA on speed dial.

They fold flat

They did it the same just made it look more like a land rover
Too much 😮
That front end of the truck is ugly! I have the 22 Prestige and love it! ❤
I remember when Kia was value priced. For the price I’ll stick with other companies that hold their value.
Oh wow! What did you end up buying?
@@bolton-bikken_back_bein_bo3702 I haven’t purchased anything. Still driving my 4Runner.

The telluride holds its value as well as the Honda pilot… if not better.
Too much money for a Korean car.
Why is this guy stuck in the basement?
Pretty sure, it's his garage.
LOL - it IS my garage, and I like it in here.
