    Mazda corporate is terrible, why do people always recommend to contact them?

    Toyota makes a really good product but it has gotten ridiculous. You are supposed to pay thousands of dollars extra just for the privilege of the Toyota dealer giving you THEIR business, not the other way around.

    Mazda corporate is terrible, why do people always recommend to contact them?

    The new Prius looks good but check out the pricing on the new Prius. They are selling them for $6,000-$10,000 over MSRP, everywhere. It's called the Toyota tax. https://priuschat.com/threads/thought-i-would-be-driving-a-new-2023-prius.239094/...

    Cracked cylinder head 2019 CX-5 with 26,000 miles

    I find this subject interesting. I made a thread comparing issue rates per year and the CX-5's top two competitors. My basis is a 2019 since that's what I own, but that is 4 years old and gives a few years and 75,000-100,000+ mile users for issues to show up. Compare the recalls and problem...

    Weird CX-5 on Autotrader

    Plus the $1,000 down payment. Note the "listing price". Clearly a bait and switch. Exactly. $16,643 below blue book? Scummy dealer with a bait and switch.

    Regarding tire rotation, that's something that seems to vary between manufacturers. Mazda says use a cross rotation, but Toyota and Nissan say front to back is recommended regardless of drive type.
