    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    And maybe there's more profit margin built into the Signature, so more room to move.

    They are such very nice cars...truly engineered for those who like to drive. I came into my 2019 Reserve from 25+ years of truck ownership. There were warm evenings last summer where I would turn off the tv and go take it for a long drive. re: your location. When I was a kid we would camp at...

    Right Wrist pain from using the Infotainment knob

    Refresh my memory...even with a turbo, these are still 4-strokers, right?

    Right Wrist pain from using the Infotainment knob

    What about Voice Recognition? I'm blanking on which trims have this. "Call Frank" > "MY DAMNED WRIST!"

    Right Wrist pain from using the Infotainment knob

    Now how can I possibly do both? ;) Regarding the original topic, I wonder if there's a seat position issue here. I would think that in order to have the problem the OP's got, some unnatural angle must be involved. But I've not driven my CX-5 on an extended trip yet.

    I never thought I would find Too Much Information on this site.

    2019 CX-5 Signature, Seat discomfort?

    I think the best advice I've seen so far is to take the car to an automotive upholstery shop and work with them. I've never done this. I have no idea what the process might be to ensure that when they've finished, they've actually solved the problem

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    As others have said, I don't believe Mazda has room to move. They do not seem to jack up their Reference Retail so they can have 🎈 🎈 🎈 Massive Inventory Blowout Sales!!!🎈 🎈 🎈 I don't think it's stubbornness. They really don't roll that way. And there's still scant evidence that any other...

    CR Talking cars, CX-5 vs CX-30

    Interesting. I was in for service in March and forgot to ask for a CX-30 test drive. This was before the virus stuff hit. One of the new owners posting in that other thread said He came from a 2014 CX-5. Maybe the interior upgrade wowed him. Another member posted some February sales...

    Mazda Canada Interest rates did not drop?

    From Mazda's website: They made the switch April 1. Yet one more aspect of Mazda and Toyota getting ever closer in their relationship (they're building a joint-production facility in Alabama, due to open in 2022.)

    2022 CX-50?!

    Funny, this thread caused me to go read a couple of articles on RWD/FWD/AWD. Sadly, none of them discussed the daily handling benefits of AWD as if no such thing existed, they only discussed slugging through snow.

    CR Talking cars, CX-5 vs CX-30

    I've commented before that the only time I've used the touch screen in my CX-5 was sitting in my driveway loading addresses into my NAV system. I wonder how Jim might feel about it after having lived with it for a while. On the other hand, those other makes might not disable their touch...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Congratulations! My 2019 GT Reserve is my first Mazda. I don't know why this brand was not on my radar screen before. I really love it. I know you'll enjoy yours as well.

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    Yeh, I have calculated the manual MPG and captured the computer's MPG at every fill-up since I've have the car (nearly 9,000 miles.) I have the raw data for every tankful. The computer is 0.6 MPG lower than the manual calc, based on the aggregate weighted average of both. But fluctuations...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    To remain slightly off-topic: I did lots of complaining about the mileage in my 2019 turbo (Avg 24MPG) until I set the Fuel Economy Monitor to display every time the ignition is turned off (in other words, it automatically displays up briefly at the end of every trip) so I could see what's...

    What did you pay for your CX-5?

    I only watched this first video and he repeats what's been said here all along: -The used car market is being flooded and prices ARE coming down -New cars prices have yet to fall Specifically, at 3:45 in the video the guy says It will be interesting to see what happens. I imagine the...

    Poll Did you choose the CX-5 over a German SUV?

    That's not a bad tactic. Not only do you save the $$$ by buying used, but you give the new engine (and I understand new transmission) a couple of years to see if design issues manifest themselves.

    Poll Did you choose the CX-5 over a German SUV?

    Keep in mind that Mazda and Toyota are working on a production facility in Huntsville Alabama that's due to start production "in 2021." They had anticipated a Spring opening, but The Virus has made them push it out until "later in 2021." 3rd party articles say they will be making up to 300,000...
