I'm not exactly complaining about the fuel mileage I am getting, but I was disappointed that I couldn't do better with the highway MPGs (because I was fixated on the 33 MPG EPA estimate). That said, barring an expensive upgrade to a BMW X3 (which records even lower fuel economy in Fuelly), I can't find another car that can replace our 2016 CX-5 GT, except maybe a newer CX-5 with the diesel engine.
