- CX9
Hello all, I've been lurking on this forum for several months trying to decide which new mid-sized crossover SUV to purchase next month. Narrowed it down to the Toyota Highlander FWD Limited Platinum, Honda Pilot Touring FWD, and the CX-9 Grand Touring FWD. After driving them all to be honest thought the CX-9 felt a little small in the front cabin and overall a tighter fit. Really though it's just me in it 90% of the time, would never use the 3rd row but folding it down gives me a lot more space than my current 2013 Toyota Venza. The CX-9 drives very well as you know and is much sportier than the my other contenders; but I haven't driven a 4 cyl car since the 80's and have some reservations about that...maybe if the mileage was spectacularly better than the V6's but it's not.
As things turn out for 2019 Toyota's experiencing a software glitch that is interfering with the voice command features and voice directions from the NAV system (remedied only by having to do some extra steps as a workaround) and Honda Pilot forums are posting a number of owner's with the NAV and LCD instrument cluster unexpectedly blacking out while driving. When I read the comments on this forum there's not much you folks are complaining about and my #1 concern is reliability.
Guess what I'm looking for is some assurance that the CX-9 is my best bet and that current owners are happy with their experience. Thanks for your comments.
