Those examples are true, but kind of beside the point. What matters is when new "features" are widely available to the average consumer. I can't think of any ten year period than the past ten when so many new things have become widespread, for better or worse. And with the pace of innovation...

The only one time I've been in stop and go with this car, it resumed after stopping without intervention.

Paddle shifters, std on GT and up. About time.

no turbos in 18.

Then the real question is: are they going to fix it?

It may turn out to be similar to the CD problem, just software. Especially if it's only affecting some owners. It's almost got to be tuning.

Unless it's already destroyed.

Outstanding!

That's one data point. Can't hurt with cold weather coming on. Hope so! Christmas lights are already going up in my neighborhood. :)

Still a mystery, then. Let us know if she figures it out.

If it happens again. But first, get the battery load tested. If it's the original battery, it might be easier to replace it than bother with the dealer. If it's not a battery issue, then bring it in. Unless it has something to do with that bad EPB switch that people have had trouble with...

OP made it sound like there were other cars around. Maybe they weren't so close after all?

Exactly: like a toy. An ugly toy. But sometimes you gotta just hold your nose and put up with something you don't like to get what you want or need, dontcha? Just think how many ugly cars have been made. There's no accounting for taste. And I bet there are plenty of people who think it...

Yeah, I've had snows last 8 years with no signs of rot. It surely varies among different tires, usage, and conditions. Just be aware of your equipment.

There is no "always", but I agree in general. They won't offer more than they can get at wholesale for at least three reasons: 1-they want mo' money, 2-many people take those lowball offers just to avoid additional hassle, and 3-lots of people [most? almost all?] do what you did and don't...

I've heard them called puddle lights, and it's a great feature. Footwell, not so much, pointless to me, even. It's the lack of a glove box light that I can't understand.

That should explain it, then. 4 and 20 blackbirds. Or 420. Coming home to the line after a nice meal. Still doesn't explain why it was only HER car.

Maybe it is! Thanks for adding that.

Good work! That's a great way to do it. You might have gotten a little more, but I'd say you priced it just right. Dealers will never give you a decent price on a trade unless they're desperate for your business.

It'll be rolling out soon enough on all models. Just like with AA/ACP, Mazda is a little behind the rest.
