      So Far So Good

      by Bob N on 3/17/2026 4:23:53 AM

      Pros: 1.) Ride and a quiet cabin rival any luxury sedan I've owned. 2.) Comfortable, stylish, spacious cabin. 3.) Loaded with the latest technology and all the bells and whistles i.e. surround cameras, power inverters, stop & lock, control of radio, navigation, and climate control have direct button control instead of going through endless layers of menus on a screen. Heated and cooled seats 1st and 2nd rows ect.......ect.....ect. 4.) Smooth transmission and strong brakes 5.) Great visibility 6.) Overall competes with the luxury SUV makers (BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Lexas) in every way except about 20k cheaper. Cons: 1.) Only one engine available, although it is competent with 291 hp I would prefer and engine with more acceleration and torque. I question its performance towing a trailer up a steep grade. 2.) The second row captain chairs are heated/cooled but are not power In summation: The vehicle provides looks, styling, performance and comfort all in a reasonably priced package. So far depending on how dependable it proves to be I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. My best recommendation is for you to test drive one and see for yourself!

      by Alan on 1/18/2026 4:11:07 PM

      I purchased my Telluride shortly after it was introduced. I have now owned it for almost 7 years. It has about 86,000 miles on it. I have had NOT ONE ISSUE with my Telluride over these 7 years. Not one item has broken. No squeaks or rattles. All the interior and exterior trim pieces are in great shape. Love the engine and transmission. Good power, smooth shifting and I average 24 mpg. Love it.
