    What MPG are you getting???

    Apparently I funked up my math so my last tank was still okay at 9L/100km or 26mpg but my latest is 30.5mpg :D Feeling much better about my driving haha. I'm surprised at how accurate it is to the numbers Mazda listed.

    What MPG are you getting???

    Ah okay, I must have misunderstood when the dealership was mentioning that to me. I assumed it was best for the engine to warm up before driving it during the "break in" period. Will see how this tank goes :D Thanks guys

    What MPG are you getting???

    I did the math myself, 502km/312mi driven since I last filled up and divided by the 42.175L/11.14gal it took to fill it this time. The computer display said 8.5L/100km or 27.67mpg which would have been much more desirable. My driving for that tank was mostly in town just running errands around...

    What MPG are you getting???

    Does it get much better as you rack up more mileage? I'm currently at 1300km and averaging around 11.9L/100km or 19.8 mpg. This is my first new car so I don't have very much experience with this.

    The CX-5 LED Lighting Thread

    So almost 100% of my knowledge of replacing bulbs, stems from this thread. If I wanted to replace the bulbs on my GS, would these be the correct bulbs? Would I need to buy anything else for it or do I just pop them in? http://www.vleds.com/frs-drl-2177.html In the first post, it mentions...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    I don't know if you guys have checked online for pricing or not but buying accessories online is always cheaper than it is from the dealer. Not all dealers will pricematch but ask, I got $100 off the final price for the cargo tray, cover and all weather mats. I think they have that mixed with...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    I got(or will have in a week) my GS FWD for about $28,600 before taxes from Achilles Mazda up in Milton. That includes freight and pdi and whatever other charges Ontario requires. That was my best bid using Unhaggle and from what I gather it was about 1%-1.5% above dealer's cost. If you go...

    TomTom still bad?

    Thanks for the offer haha, unfortunately Minnesota is a bit far from here. Ah well, I'll figure it out regardless. WOuld be nice if I could just purchase the SD card though. I think they only cost about $200.

    TomTom still bad?

    They said it was a $700 charge for the software, I assumed the hardware was all installed on the GS and GT models. I guess I'll find out when I get back. Ugh I hate waiting, not enjoying this vacation at all now haha.

    TomTom still bad?

    I'm wondering now, I have the GS trim so it comes with the touchscreen display and it has the NAV button. It seems like I'm only missing the SD card with the software. If that's the case, could I just buy that and stick it in that little slot?

    TomTom still bad?

    Thanks for all the response! Been so busy trying to prep insurance and paper work over the phone to get this car ready for the end of my vacation haha. Quite the pain, wasn't really expecting so much hassle! It's a really dumb reason but I really hate the look of additional devices hanging and...

    TomTom still bad?

    Hi guys, been on here for a while now, figured I should just make an actual account. So I recently decided to pick up the CX-5(first new car!) and I'm debating if I should pick up TomTom or not. I read through most of the threads involving the NAV but I wanted to get a better feel for what you...
