    Can a good deal be had now vs the end of the month

    Again--they will ignore most of this. You are just wasting your time. They can, and they will. Many dealers will quote you a price that includes all available incentives, even if you don't qualify for them. Read the fine print of any quote you get--carefully. I had a salesman do this sitting...

    Can a good deal be had now vs the end of the month

    Don't use an email template. They don't read your email anyway. You put in there "I want a CX-5 Signature, Machine Gray...." And then they get back to you and either ask you what model you are looking for, or get it wrong. Most dealer websites have some "Request a quote" link. Use that.

    Can a good deal be had now vs the end of the month

    Seems to me the only risk you run is that as the 2019 MY comes to an end, you could hit supply problems for the exact model you want. I would definitely call as many dealers as you can, and widen your search radius if possible. But keep an eye on inventory.

    Must Admit as a Mazda CX5 Fan, 2019 Chevy Blazer Looks Awesome

    Having driven an Equinox on my last vacation, I would have 0 interest in the Blazer. There is no way the Blazer stacks up in any variable, other than more space.

    Power rear lift gate broke and then I lost the arm.. oops

    You could definitely take those inside trim pieces off. But I can't say how involved the process would be.

    2019 Mazda CX-5 vs. 2019 Toyota RAV4 (Car&Driver)

    This is consistent with every single review I have seen and read. The biggest knock on the RAV4 is that the engine sounds extremely unrefined. It's a shame--it's a nice car. I know the styling is take it or leave it, but I do really like it. Especially in the higher trim levels.

    2019 Mazda CX-5 vs. 2019 Toyota RAV4 (Car&Driver)

    If you watch Alex on Autos' review of the CX-5, he specifically references the CX-5 tire width, and suggests that owners can improve handling by adding wider tires.

    Signature wood trim delete

    Your wife likes what she likes, but I can't agree with the assessment that the wood trim in the Signature looks dated. I think it looks really modern--it's not like the classic burled walnut. I can see how that could be construed as "dated". But I can't think of another car on the market with...

    2017~2025 Chewed up plastic after only 30000 m?

    I agree with this question. I have a '12 CX-9 with 86K miles, and similar plastic cladding, without any wear at all. If it's both sides, then I'd get into the dealer and make a warranty claim before you hit 36K miles--that's way beyond normal wear.

    Door locks gone wild

    Well, you have a video, so it shouldn't matter if the dealer can't replicate it. You can show them the video.

    2007~2015 2010 CX-9 Bose w/o nav - spotify playing songs too fast

    What happens when you play Spotify on your phone when not connected to Bluetooth? Does this ONLY happen when you are listening in the car?
