The Kia Telluride is still selling like there’s cash in its cargo area. Through June nearly have been sold this year. And as one reader pointed out to us, a lot of dealers been trying to cash in on how hot the Telluride is by marking them up.

is a group of three Kia dealers two in New Hampshire and one in Norwood, Massachusetts. In total, there are 30 Tellurides in their inventory across the three dealerships. And every one has a healthy markup.

The Concord and Norwood lots have twelve Tellurides each; North Hampton has six. Across all lots, the top-of-the-line SX trims have the biggest markups and represent the bulk of the Tellurides in stock. How bad is it? Try $10,000 on each SX. With an MSRP of $49,965 and the $10k markup, you’re looking at nearly $60,000 for a Telluride from this place.

Thinking of trying to save some money and getting a lower or mid-trim? Think again. S and EX trims have $6,000 on them bringing their prices in line with MSRP on an SX.

Base LX models with MSRPs of just over $36,000 have the smallest markups at $4,000. But with those markups, it again brings prices in line with what S and EX models are supposed to cost. Sadly, looking around the country this seems to be the norm, especially with SX trimmed Tellurides. Tellurides currently for sale across the country, 573 are priced at $60,000 and up.

If you cant wait and must have a Telluride right now, at least shop around for the best price.

1969 Fiat 500 Berlina: The Jalopnik Classic Review
In Italy, old Fiat 500s are ubiquitous the way aging VW Beetles are everywhere else. They weren't around for as long – from 1957 until 1975 (as opposed to the Beetle's much longer ) – but they make a lot of sense on narrow Italian streets, so a lot of...

For $13,500, You Can Tell People You Drive A Ferrari
Today’s contender is a fourteen grand Ferrari. Those words are rarely spoken outside the context of a roadside smoldering heap, or when being quoted the cost of a major tune up, so one has to ask, what’s the catch? Although also white and V8-powered, yesterday’s did lack the iconic badging...

For $17,500, The Devil Wears Eldorado
Today’s Pierre Cardin Evolution 1 is massively rare and ‘80s fabulously fashionable. But while it’s haute couture, is it priced to make someone want to slip into its designer genes? Yesterday’s had the sound and the fury, and - according to 55% of you - the right price as well....
