    i-ACTIVE AWD not so Active

    I'm pretty sure Mazda considers it a way to get you over a pile of snow in your driveway and when its not doing that to siphon off as little MPG as possible so they hit their CAFE numbers. It's not some launch control or off-roading beast system.

    Mazda3 Rust recall

    Got rid of my original Lava Orange because of the rust. Would have kept it otherwise. :(

    Would you buy? CX-6

    Mazda already had the answer for this and it was called the CX-7. CX-5 is not long enough for tall people knees in the back. CX-9 is great but a little bit too much (and low MPG) for a lot of customers.

    Remote starter

    I'm interested in this. There are no extra glued on antennas like the mazda OEM solution right?

    The Mazda CX-9 sales mystery

    They keep spending marketing money on me through Facebook and Twitter. News flash, I already own it. I don't need to see a CX-9 advert every day.

    I Apologize For My Bad 'Design Language' | Would You Buy This Piece of...?

    Belt-line up yet again. By 2020 the windows will be WWII pillbox style 4 inches tall.

    Inventory is way out of whack

    Is stock a dealer choice or a Mazda corporate thing? I would think that it would be up to the dealer to order the mix they think will sell...

    2017 CX 9 Customer Reviews

    The current gen MDX you can tell they are not proud of the center stack and gauge cluster, just look at the website gallery. The first image showing that goofy dual screen and uggo Acura control knob belly button is way down low, past even the seats.

    2017 CX 9 Customer Reviews

    Was looking at the Atlas but seeing the MPG killed it for me. People getting around 15 in the city... Not to mention the SEL Prem being priced sky high.

    Push Button Start Issue

    Investigate the completely normal and expected behavior? Should it go into park? What if you need to turn the engine off or it stalls and you are pushing the vehicle? Should you have to know an arcane button combo to get it back in drive? You do know the gear selector cant move itself. Should...

    Have You Added Car Cameras Yet?

    Anyone have a good guide for pulling all the trim to hide the wiring for front and rear cameras and hard wiring in to the fuse box? (2016-18's)

    CQ: CX-9 diagonal and offroad test --- Fail!

    Okay, next time I need to roll up to an industrial park loading dock lump at the worst possible angle available I'll keep this in mind and remember to add a little momentum. The other 99.999999999% of my driving time I'll be enjoying my CX-9.

    Push Button Start Issue

    Same as with a key you could turn the engine off and then take your foot off the brake. Try to idiot proof basic things like this and you can have all kinds of other unintended consequences. What if you had unintended acceleration and the car decided when you turned the engine off to slam on the...

    HUD / ADD - issue grrr...

    Is the setting tied to the seat memory? Are you flipping between 1 and 2 on the seat when you get in?

    2.2D Photos.

    Does yours have the DEF tank? I'm wondering if that eats into any of the rear storage space.

    CX-5 great or just the first Mazda in a long time without a goofy smile?

    What are your thoughts? I test drove a CX-5 the other day and while I was happy it left me wondering if I even wanted a crossover. I think with a rusting 2004 Mazda 3S I was just excited because this is the first Mazda in a long time without a drugged up anime smile gracing the front grill.

    A Heads-Up Concerning the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

    Wait, there are no sensors in the rims? So you can run aftermarket rims and still have TPMS? AWESOME!

    CX-5 can now be built online at Mazdausa site

    They still don't have any pictures of the sand color interior... Get it together Mazda!

    Diesel version coming to US?

    Diesel didn't get pulled after a short run because of poor sales. They got pulled because US tier 2 regulations on emissions kicked in that are more stringent then the EU countries and it didn't make sense to re-engineer for the smaller US market. I think the CX-5 is one of the few upcoming...
