Do any of you know how to decode a VIN to determine what transmission a CX5 has? I'd hate to drive to Dayton tomorrow to find out they listed the transmission wrong.
Manual said 87 unleaded only. Specifically states no E85, which surprised me, I figured it would be flexfuel capable being a 2015. Oh well. It did ok when I drove it to work yesterday, power is plenty for cruise to maintain 70mph, even up steep slopes without downshifting.
I was mistaken, its a 2.5L in the transit. The ecoboost (1.6L available only in the work versions) only adds 9hp and 13 ft-lbs over the NA. I agree with you, its not quick like the Flex, but it's not slow. Power is adequate getting on the highway. The biggest problem it has is that you don't...

I'll say I have seen a few guys with the MaxJax. One guy out of Kansas City built his Z06 in his garage with one. I'd say it would handle the RX7 no problem.
