    What and how do you use it?

    Thanks Guys! Great pointers there... Need to spend some time on Pinterest and get some great ideas. It seems to be a good place to keep the key while driving. Will need some non-slip mat and customize it for that place. Will share if I find something interesting.

    What and how do you use it?

    Although my main question is to ask what is the small squarish thing used for (or how are you guys using it for), We can actually share smart ideas on using the space inside the car. Ex: the small compartment near the car lighter charger in front or the corner grooves in the trunk. Back to my...

    What color did you choose?

    Aluminum Silver for me. Did a research and noticed that is the most preferred and easy to maintain color and is usually the first choice in luxury cars. This is the argument I have for myself. Actual reason is - Wife said "Silver period." :D

    Backseat Entertainment

    Thanks! VisionExpress has some really high rated 13$ wireless headrest but since it is battery based I am looking for the bluetooth ones... During Black Friday I was able to get the Seagate Gofles satellite HD at 50% for just 99$ and am looking forward to set it up soon. The crashtested mount...

    Engine Break-in Period

    I too took my CUV after 300 KMS for a drive to US (around 350 KMS each side). Since my dealer told that this CUV does not need a break-in and that it can be driven as you like, I did not worry about driving long distance and on cruise for lets say 30 mins at a stretch. Now after reading this I...

    CX 5 GS Snow Handling

    Which ones did you get? I went across the border while visiting my family and got the icept EVO which is the best all-round tires according to CR (on the RFD forum). For 950 I actually got the 17" allow package.

    CX 5 GS Snow Handling

    Done last week. I drive a FWD GS model, mostly Mississauga city driving. Last year I was unfortunate but lucky that I could not stop at the lights and the cop got me. He left me with the warning but I had decided that I would get winter tires this year. Thepersonal gave me 5% discount on the...

    I am in the same boat. Do you have a moonroof? If yes then flip down does not make sense. Also headrest/twin are easier if there are 2 kids or a kid with an adult. Both have their own choices. Kids usually watch the same over and over again which could be boring :( I had included twin headrest...

    CX 5 GS Snow Handling

    FWD or AWD? If its usually cleaner road, AWD is better and now with so many technologies like TCS, etc things are better but no matter what, Winter tires make the difference. It is recommended to handle the snow, ice, slush. It may seem to be an expense but note that it extends your...

    CX-5 GT or 2013 Escape SEL?

    I have been following this forum as a visitor during my CUV search and it helped me get the real world information rather than the slick websites/commercials/dealers and influenced websites. I bought my CX-5 a couple weeks ago and am happy. I registered today to reply on this thread because I...
