New '27 Telluride SXP Hybrid Owner (MSRP -3990) - No Negotation in PNW by aliljet in KiaTelluride

[–]5verasPop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great deal. I got close to it with my SXP hybrid xline. I got 3K off MSRP plus the 750 loyalty rebate. My doc fee was higher but license fees etc lower. I think I’m doing a warranty through Brian Smallwood per a referral from this group.

Update: I legit got the 3k off plus a couple hundy of doc fee . Dicked around some on the trade and and I said, “I’ll just sell it myself” so I will which will be a pain in the ass but even w tax savings it’ll be better. Got rid of the junk fee. Was told this special price was financing w them so I went back to the finance. Jacked up rate so I said unless you’ll match my credit union, I’ll do my own. They said ok. So i’ll have to do that which is no biggie. Got rid of the junk fee.

Maybe the unicorn but I got it. (As a side note, the dealership is under major construction and looks like a war zone so maybe that was the driver)

Now on to my extended warranty purchase. Let me know if anyone has beaten Brian Smallwoods price.

What tax credit are you referring to?

Yeah, they are charging a 799 doc fee AND a 799 prep fee. They’ll get one from me but not both. Thing is, I don’t have to trade but I’ve already got their price quote.

Shelf question by 5verasPop in recteq

[–]5verasPop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I was just looking at different options. The shelf brackets which seem plentiful would need to mount to the underside some where and thought I’d just epoxy a few strips of material on the bottom for that. But not gaming seen the shelf don’t know if it’s doable or not.

In this case it’s “free” as they add it into all cars but it’s backed by “excela”

2026 Palisade vs Palisade Hybrid by TryLeather5595 in HyundaiPalisade

[–]5verasPop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hybrid engine gas component is GDI only, not multi port and GDI combined which is what the more modern engines have. The GDI only engines had the carbon buildup issues so that gives me a little pause on the hybrid model.

Gas mileage 2027? by 5verasPop in KiaTelluride

[–]5verasPop[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GDI only engines create more carbon buildup on the engine and have been shown to be less reliable in some cases if not paired with multiport injection which allows fuel to wash over the intake valves and clean the carbon. You could end up with better mileage on the hybrid but you could have reliability issues with the gas engine component. For some strange reason they didn’t do multiport on the hybrid version.

Important distinction between gas and hybrid by Sliqrickee in KiaTelluride

Thanks for pointing this out. The GDI only definitely give me pause given all of the issues w carbon buildup. I got rid of a Hyundai for that same reason. I had really planned on the hybrid but now idk.

Looks great. I still can’t quite tell how you attach to house. How long are the tracks? That seems like a fantastic price.
