However, I prefer the bench seat in a vehicle (long story short: all of my kids like to be in the second row and no one wants to be alone in the third row, yet). From the average car tester’s standpoint, I can see how the leather captain’s chairs would be more appealing - it’s a bit more luxurious than a bench seat. This tested Telluride had a second-row bench seat, as opposed to the usual testers with two captain’s chairs. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. So, what do you do? You’ve got a couple options - call the puzzle company and complain and hope they send a new one (I assume Kia isn’t going to send a new Carnival because you aren’t happy with the Telluride’s 601L of trunk space) or move on with your life, even if it means creating a makeshift puzzle piece (yes, I have done it) - or in the case of the Telluride, find/make that extra trunk space.

When it comes to the actual puzzle, you’ve likely searched everywhere for those pieces (under the couch, in the empty puzzle box, under your butt), but it’s gone. I often compare three-row SUVs to minivans, and if the minivan is the completed puzzle, the Telluride is the same puzzle, missing two pieces (in this case, cargo space and sliding doors).

There are a bunch of different features and options that fit together to make it almost as satisfying as the end result of a puzzle, almost. Well, I enjoyed the 2022 Kia Telluride, and it reminded me of puzzles.
