Would splitting the forum solve issues we're currently facing? I don't think so. Anyway, how would <2017 owners know that they have an inferior vehicle than us if our posts aren't mixed?
A slower, worse braking, smaller cargo space, worse ground clearance, worse gas mileage, uglier vehicle(subjective)... Wait who has the inferior vehicle again?
But really, the 17 is largely in part the same vehicle as the 16/16.5. Mazda did some nice things with the 17 but remained stagnant and in fact, objectively got worse in other areas. Like the 17 CRV, Mazda needs to make a big splash and improve across the board. Then I think the CX5 will be deserving of a separate page. Even at that, I think we as a community are better off keeping it all together. Because I agree, the second you start separating everything, we lose the uniqueness and knowledge which is what makes this forum fun and helpful.
Antoine, that's a good idea. I think some users have already done so and it really helps out. Not only do I read the title and see if it portrays to me or if I could help, but seeing the year would further clear up whether a certain post is applicable to a user.
