Can I borrow someone's hot tub time machine so I could have delayed my CX5 purchase decision by one year hopefully you can see the picture

Congratulations!!! The CRV looks great IMO. Let me know about the rear legroom. My oldest boy hit a serious growth spurt and I am considering getting something bigger. I like the CX-9 and the highlander but have no need for the 3rd row or no huge desire for the associated MPG hit with those...

Ditto on both issues. Hopefully, I can do both on one visit. I don't mind as I often get a loaner. I always ask for the Mazda 6 and I have to admit to having second thoughts every time I drive the 6.

All the small gripes with my current CX-5 have essentially been addressed with the 2017. Rear AC Vent, Power passenger seat (which my wife constantly rags on me about), recline back seat, power lift gate, improved Bose system (TBD), improvements in speaker design and placement to eliminate...

Agreed.....until I hear about the engine and tech I feel underwhelmed like an apple product announcement

Honeycomb grill meh.. looks like it has a heads up display but it has the "tombstone" infotainment screen.... not a fan

OMG !!!!! Show the dang car!!!

I agree with you.. I don't think adding the turbo would add that much to the price. An extra grand would not bother me for increased performance and slightly reduced MPG. I have been looking at the Subaru Forester 2.0XT and that vehicle is pretty quick but it doesn't look as nice as the Mazda...

just wondering how many people would upgrade if the new CX-5 has the turbo 4 with lets say 275 horses and a considerable torque bump??

Thanks guys I do have a better understanding of the current MPG!! Not sure I will use it to monitor and adjust my driving patterns to achieve max mpg. After all I did buy a "zoom zoom" and not a "yota"!!! I will just have to be jealous of everyone's high "fuelly" numbers while I linger...

Yes, I realize I can change the display but my current MPG goes from 14.7 to 23.5 to 49.8 to 99.8 in about 15 seconds. The number is constantly changing and the range is from 15-99.....was just wondering if anyone else had that issue. The current mileage in the "app" doesn't have those swings...

Does anyone else find the Current MPG the most useless piece of information any car computer can provide? Maybe I'm missing something if so enlighten me. Also how does that information reconcile with the mileage info the in the "applications" section

I was pretty disappointed with my gas mileage (2016 GT AWD) as I was barely averaging 24 mph in 70-30 highway/city driving. After going over the 7000 mile mark, my gas mileage has improved. My past two "fuelly" entries have been 26 and 26.5. Hopefully, this trend continues!!

what do you guys think about the unpainted trim piece along the bottom. I have a 2016 and I do wonder how it would look if it were painted.
