I went on a work trip this week to Palm Springs, and since it's only 4 Hours from Scottsdale, I thought I'd drive and enjoy some "me" time.

Not one issue while driving the 500 miles round trip (aside from the rock that hit my moonroof and scratched it). Not one worry. She drove like a champ in all of my comfort while carrying all of my work collateral and signage with no problems.

Thanks Mazda for making my ride so enjoyable!

 

Nice to hear it was uneventful, minus the rock. Did you check MPG to see what you were getting on the open road?

 

Watch out for dump trucks. I pick my new Sport up on Saturday. Everybody will get the full true comparison to the CRV after I put some miles on the CX.

 

You should have many miles of trouble free driving. We have 91,000 on our 13 Touring and its been back for one warranty repair (leaking rear shock) and have not had any repairs except for general maintainence (brakes, tires, oil changes, etc.)

 

So far the CX-5 beats the CRV on utility and visceral response.
