    Saying goodbye to my little 5...

    The time has come for me and my 5 to part ways. As much as I adore her, she is just not big enough for my family. I have a bunch of extras that I am not planning on handing over when we say goodbye to her, Thule feet/locks/bars a hitch and a Hollywood bike rack... If anyone is interested, let...

    Clunking noise when put into gear is normal???

    I wouldn't call it a click, it's much more of a clunk. It can often be heard over the radio and a/c going. Dealership gave me the whole ABS load of hooey. I don't get why it would start after 1.5 years. Also, last week it was supposedly because my axle needed lube (that is a way different...

    How to carry 4 bikes?

    Forgot to add, we checked the sunroof, with the bars. Stephen opened it from the inside and I put my hand between the glass and the bars. There is NO WAY that thing was going to open! I now have a band-aid covering the buttons! :) I just knew I'd forget and try to open the darn thing.

    How to carry 4 bikes?

    Not sure if this is the correct answer to your question but the Thule racks, have a 2" end that goes into the hitch. There is a metal sleeve (for lack of a better description) that comes off and vola` you have a 1 1/4. Is that kinda what you were asking?

    How to carry 4 bikes?

    We are also going to have to very carefully check the sun roof. If it's going to hit anything, we are going to have to put tape over the button as you know I'd end up forgetting and opening the dang thing.

    Mazda5: Prices paid and related questions

    I ordered the one from the dealer, sight unseen. I feel that the fit is great and it stays in place quite well. Also, the quality seems to be good. I have had no issues with it and feel that having the sand interior, I couldn't live without it. Plus, I happen to like how it looks. Hope this...

    Why there is no trip computer?

    That is a neat gadget. My Sienna had one and I really liked it. Honestly, I'm glad that I don't have one, don't want to be reminded of my lead foot! (eekdance)
