Good read, I've attached the article in question if anyone was interested. Telluride and Palisade comes down to subjective criteria, which is to be expected. I too, was initially in the Telluride camp during my initial research into these vehicles. But I grew increasingly "tired" of the way the Telluride looks, it bored me, somewhat. In my eyes, the Palisade is a far superior design, inside and out, compared to to Telluride. But in any case, I'm happy both of them are getting the mainstream recognition over its Japanese and American counterparts. The CX-9 long reigned in this particular class for few years at least (makes sense, since my Palisade is replacing the 1st gen CX-9, which I really loved, too) but it looks like the Hyundai/Kia 1-2 punch is coming after the throne.
