    Should I?

    I don't ever use the auto shift thing unless I get bored. I tend to think that if I use it wrong I could kill my tranny. I'd pimp out a 6 wagon. I love the way they look plus you get more room.

    My rear hatch won't open!!!

    I noticed that my rear hatch liftgate was getting harder and harder to open and now it won't open at all. Anyone here ever have that problem? The dealer wants $400+ to fix it but he told me they are probably going to break the latch to get it open and then replace it. I can do that myself...

My car has 65,000 miles on it and he said it's good to do it once before the mileage gets higher. I asked him if he was going to change the filter and he said no...

    What have you done to your Mazda5 today?

    Put an Xcargo Xtreme roof box on mine for my trip to the beach with the fam.

    I also picked the Xtreme model because it loads from the side. That 20 model a few posts ago opens from the back and you probably need a small stepladder to load that thing. Also, I haven't noticed any wind noise with my box so hopefully that helps anyone here.

    Show me your roof box!

    I ended up getting the Sears brand XCargo Xtreme model. It's 16 cubic feet. Its a slimmer box similar to that Sportrack model posted a few post before mine. I think it's good on gas because I got over 160 miles to the half tank mark with it. Anyway, I place my order on Sears to pick up the...

    How to remove side skirts

    Thanks guys. She curb checked like 3/4 of the side skirt. Its all curb rashed and looks like hell. I can see where a couple of the pop rivet pieces came undone so I gotta pop it off the reinstall it correctly anyway. On another note, don't you hate women drivers?
