    Disappointments / missing things in your CX-5?

    Sorry, I should have typed "Retractable Cargo Cover" I blame it on my FFS (fat finger syndrome)

    Disappointments / missing things in your CX-5?

    Speaking only about the Signature Trim, I am 3 weeks in and here are my thoughts. Shocking that Mazda sees themselves as a premium brand and their "Signature" car does not have remote start. I bought a 2014 Ford Focus that had it, why can't an almost $40K Mazda have it? The retractable car cover...

    No Roof Rails

    I would guess that most people have no need for them and would rather not pay for them. Mine came with them, would have preferred that it didn't as it just raised the price. I paid for something I will never, ever use. Sadly it was the only car in my color withing a few hundred miles.

    Considerations when shopping

    Yes, that is the one that I got. $106 is a great price as it is a quality piece. Anyone with a bit a mechanical ability and the proper tools should have no problem installing it.

    Considerations when shopping

    I had to get a 2" drop and turn it upside down for my Utility trailer but I had an aftermarket Curt hitch.

    Considerations when shopping

    I would probably consider using U-Haul or any other reputable Hitch installer Vs. having the dealer do it. The cost for the Mazda accessory one is extremely high. The Draw-Tite and the Curt are both excellent choices. I had the Curt on my 2016 and just this past weekend installed it on my 2020...

    Out with the old and in with the new

    Thanks. I keep up on my cars pretty well. I never had any problems with the paint and it always responded very well to its once yearly paint correction and machine polish. Hope to do the new one this weekend.

    Report: Diesel CX-5 Discontinued

    Underwhelming and drastically overpriced. it won't be surprising if they do pull the plug. Swing and a miss.

    Out with the old and in with the new

    Had nothing but a good experience with my 2016.5 CX-5 GT but thought I would look at the new ones partly because of the incentives. Long story short I don't have my car anymore (And yes, I do miss it) but in its place is a 2020 CX-5 Signature. As someone who firmly preferred the old gen to...

    Newbie Purchase Questions: window tint and mudflaps

    Sorry for the late reply, I was traveling. The add on flaps were the generic flat type you can get in any auto parts store, maybe even Walmart.

    Newbie Purchase Questions: window tint and mudflaps

    I think the Mazda front flaps are way too small. I added an aftermarket flap to the existing Mazda OEM flap. Really not sure about the comment about having the flaps hurting the mileage, I have not noticed any drop whatsoever. Honestly, even if it cost 1/10 or even a 1/4 MPG, Its not going to...

    Towing over 3,000lbs with a CX-5!

    Did you ever think of renting a truck to move the trailer? The cost would be little VS. the stress, potential liability and possible damage to you car. Not to mention the heartache if things went pear shaped and someone got hurt. When I was younger I took many, many chances, now that I am older...
