Thinking about looking at a new Kia Telluride for the wife, as her current ride is about at the end of its shelf life. My online research looks pretty favorable. Anyone here have any personal experience with one?

Do it!
Trying to talk my wife into one and she's not biting. I like them a lot.
We have a Kia Carnival. It's basically a Telluride, but better because it has sliding doors.
Yeah I was looking at the Carnival, but doesn't look like it has AWD.
We bought my wife a new telluride this summer and have no complaints…she loves it.
We have a Palisade (basically the same thing) and really like it in the first 5 months.
Wife has a '21. SX AWD Prestige. It is great.
We have a 2020 fully loaded. It's a great vehicle.
We chose 23 pilot over telluride because there were tellurides everywhere. Wanted to be a little unique(for now).
BUT, I do get a little envious seeing tellurides. It's a gorgeous vehicle we were completely surprised by when we test drove.

What model did you get? We are looking at the Calligraphy.IowaAg07 said:

Calligraphy. I really like all the features and would definitely recommend either Calligraphy or the Limited. We only went with Calligraphy because emerald green only comes in Calligraphy trim.
We have a 2022 Palisade Calligraphy and love it. Had a Lexus before that and this car is much better in every way (except for service). Sewell would come to my house from DFW and pick it up for oil changes and leave me a new one for a few days.The Pilot said:What model did you get? We are looking at the Calligraphy.IowaAg07 said:

My mother has one a absolutely loves it!
We have ~3,500 miles on our 2023 and no complaints so far
45k plus and nary a complaint. Boring to drive, but a great fam SUV
Look at Hyundai Pallisade also
Get her to test drive one

Wife has the Pallisade. Great, great car. Zero issues. All the tech you could want. Comfortable for long road trips with the kids.
My ONLY gripe, the damn mirrors don't have an auto fold back function.

Nobody cares. Work Harder
I bought a '22 with 8000 miles about 2 months ago. So far I've taken it on 2 family road trips and commute 50 miles a day for work and I love it. Great comfortable car that feels good to drive, and feels far more luxurious than the price would indicate. I'm little (5') and for driving it's equally comfortable for me and my 6'4" husband, including mirror placement and blind spots.
Thanks for all the feedback. We pulled the trigger on a Telluride. Wife loves it. Pretty slick car overall.
Check out 24 Santa Fe that is about to hit lots
My plan was to upgrade my wife's 16 highlander with a telluride or palisade but then we had twins along with a 7 year old and needed the space of an expedition. If we only had 2 kids like we were planning on we'd definitely be in one right now.
Can get screaming deals on wagoneers right now.
Dealership in Huntsville has lots that are 10-15% off MSRP.

Not sure what is wrong with my brain but we have a 2022. I drove it around 300 miles yesterday and the only complaint I have about the car is the rearview mirror will not tilt high enough for me. I'm not abnormally tall either. I like the seat a little higher to get better leg support but the only way to get a full view out the back window is to lower the seat to sedan type height.
Lots of 23 Grand Wagoneers are 10-15% off on Cars.com and CarGurus. Went and looked at one at Lithia and then quoted me MsRP plus "dealer addons". I brought the pricing I was seeing elsewhere up to the salesperson and you'd have thought I was pulling numbers out of my ass the way she reacted.

They had GWs on sale too.
We have a '22 series 3 wagoneer and love it. Starting to see more of them on the road.
Got a Palisade Calligraphy today in Denver for 50K.

We like it, but if you really want a minivan, you'll need to look at the Sienna, Pacifica, or Odyssey.ElephantRider said:Close to pulling the trigger on a Carnival and joining the minivan club.mosdefn14 said:

The Carnival is a multi purpose vehicle.
Get a black Carnival put a red A-Team stripe on it and call it a day.
