Loving New 2021 Telluride

[bsdickinson]

Just took delivery last week on a 2021 Telluride EX V6 AWD. What a great vehicle. - so much safety and other tech embedded. Starting to absorb the boatload of info in the manuals. Purchased MaxLiner floor mats right away via Amazon and they are great (link below). We are empty-nesters so expect that third row seats will be seldom used. Got the mat set that comes with full cargo area coverage from the back of the 2nd row seats to the tailgate. Getting electric brake controller installed later this month after which will be ready to take to the road with our trailer and motorcycle/bicycles/scooter. Looking forward to the first trip. Glad to have gotten delivery when we did as the microchip shortage will likely put a crimp in future delivery times.

I don't like the sound of that as I am waiting now. Hope you enjoy your new ride! I'll live vicariously through you, lol.

Good luck - keep on the dealer to look at their system to see expected delivery date. Has to be fairly far along in Build I think, but once my sales guy was able to see an expected date, it turned out to actually happen!

Good to know. Thanks for the advice!

We discovered that our 2021 Telluride has a plug for a brake controller nested behind the fuse panel. Noting in the manual about it being there. We connected a Tekonsha controller into it and it works fine.

Thanks. I’m a newbie to trailer brakes and I wanted the confirmation you gave me that this is an easy DIY implementation.
