    Can Toyo A36s really wear this fast!?

    Having had LX25 and CC2 and Altimax RT43, the CC2 is the better tire, followed by LX25.

    Off Topic So slow I'm ashamed...

    I have an indoor pet. Also, I leave my PC on. Fans and cpus with heat sync units will clog. I had to do surgery on my amd phenom 2 after 7 years. Now it works fine, no overheating, but the sync was fully clogged.

    I didn't have one, I had a cx5. So I did post and do this. I brought the cold weather issue to light. I also pondered the 6.8 second 0-60's I kept getting. All documented on here. Why did car and driver get 5.8 to 60 and I got 6.8 to 60? Why indeed. Regardless, I have not smiled as much after...

    CX-60 PHEV reveal on March 8th

    From what I understand, the CX60 is on the CX70/90 chassis, so this will be as big as a CX9, just without the 3rd row seating installed. There are 2 platforms, 3 SUV's (CX50 as a 2-row, and CX60-90 as 3-row configurable). While the CX5 continues on as the 2-row platform along side the new CX50...

    I love my liquid cooled PC. I bought it in 2017, and it's been issue-free until today, minus a failed PSU bearing (nothing to do with the liquid cooling). While I would be monumentally butthurt if it took a dump today, but I can't say I haven't gotten my money's worth in near silent, efficient...

    Here is another video that makes me seriously question the data from C&D/Motortrend "in the real world". We can argue about the launch on that STI all day, but it doesn't start to pull on that RDX until the top of 3rd gear. My roommate right now actually has an STI (2019), and the car is damn...

    2019 CX-5 Folding side mirror when locking; LS stopped fully folding. Tips?

    I had many failures with these. Always when it was hot out, and often during road trips. Dealer will fix.

    Zf8, you're correct. Their Q5 base does use dct and I forgot.

    My temporary roommate's wife has a q5. An audi is not a Mazda. You'll spend more in 1 service visit routine for Audi than an entire year on a Mazda. The DCT also needs servicing, etc. They are very dissimilar cars. The RDX is much more like the Mazda. The Audi needs either a dealer, or a good...

    Yes. No Audi dealer local. Maintenance is also much more a pain.

    I drove a 2019 and experienced none of these issues. The data doesn't lie, but there's more to it going on. The car felt strong. I do not know how to reconcile the data vs what I felt driving it, but it was significantly more fun than my cx5 was. Especially the corners. Regarding acceleration...

    Winter is here and my CX-5 Turbo is now a 2.0L!

    That's annoying, but I hope you're squared away.

    This is my 2015. My 2019 GT Reserve was the same. The Stelvio was not QUIIIITTTTEEE as bad, but still notable. The RDX I did not note this with. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZS7HhuUKj1E

    I drove a 2019 RDX. Loved it. Absolutely loved it. I am probably going to put money down on a 2022 A-Spec Advance tomorrow. It had none of the lagginess the Stelvio had, and was much more engaging to drive. Whether it is ultimately faster or not than the CX5, I do not know, but it also had none...

    Thinking about 2022 CX-5 Turbo

    Yes, and the CX30. They both garner complaints over this. Cheaper.

    Thinking about 2022 CX-5 Turbo

    Cx50 is just a cheaper platform. Simple non-IRS. Pirated drivetrain. Some new sheet metal curves and interior bits. No ty. Its cheaper where it matters to me.

    Killed a catalytic converter doing this in about 70k miles on my ws.6.

    Yes, but if you can't get the car properly serviced, no ty. Goes for any brand.

    2021 CX-9 Burning oil

    This is pushing me hard to look at the Acura RDX A-spec advance. I have a test drive next week weather permitting.
