The local dealers had a lot of sigs in their inventories. I asked about it and most of them admitted they were having trouble selling them. We looked at the rdx and glc300 and it was a no brainer to go with the Cx-5 sig. I thought the rdx advanced was the better car but not $15k better. The...

Depends on what you want out of a car. The turbo is fun and practical when we’re driving on the mountain passes. I was so frustrated driving up to tahoe in our 2014 crv. Mileage is significantly less but I love the drivability of the vehicle. If you like driving, I think it’s worth it. If you’re...

We bought a 2019 Signature and love it. I did a lot of research and thought it was the best deal going. Weird thing is that I haven’t seen another signature on the road. I feel like I’m missing something here. Kinda wanted to hear other Mazda owner’s perspective on this. I thought the signature...

I drove through some light slush and uncleared packed snow and the toyos did fine. I felt one minor slip but I attribute that to the steering wheel giving great feedback. Didn*t really experience any ice. Just some brined wet pavement below freezing.

I ended up ordering BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT. I was really tempted to get a dedicated set of snow tires/wheels but I did the math on the number of chain control days and last 10 years and realized it's not practical. I can only recall a couple of R3 days (mandatory chains on all...

I will do one trip to Tahoe avoiding a major storm to see how the toyos handle and see if I should keep them around or just try to sell them. I learned my lesson a few years back on my wrx not to mess around with tires. I knowingly installed Bridgestones poorly rated for snow to save a couple of...

I will report back on my experiences as well. I am leaning towards a dedicated snow setup.

Any feedback on rim specs? Oem appears to be 7jx17, +45mm offset, 5x114.3 pcd. I think tire rack is recommending 7.5x17 +42/48 mm offset with their snow wheel package. Wondering if I should stick strictly to oem spec or others have experience deviating a bit.

Is there much difference between clamp-in and screw-in? I found the latter a bit cheaper on Walmart.

Looks like we *re in for a snowy winter in CA. I*ve been reading some reviews and I*m a bit concerned about the stock Toyo A36. Anyone have feedback on their snow/cold performance? I checked reviews here and not much specific about their snow/cold performance.

6k off of 34k msrp. Thats unusual. I did pretty well getting 4500 off of 38,355 msrp.

Does your otd include taxes? If so, it*s a great deal.

That*s nice for the signature. Enjoy the ride.

Do you always drive downhill? I just broke 21 mpg on our turbo. What the heck?

My friends mechanic recommends chevron gas to mitigate this. Is this true?

The sound system was amazing and I was intrigued by sh-awd. Ultimately, though, I liked the Mazda handling. Mazda just tells you how a car should handle. Acura was trying to Disconnect your from the road and be anything you wanted it to be. I just didn*t trust it.

My dad lived through the Korean War. Costco was the worst thing that ever happened to our family. He used to store cases of spam and engine oil in the basement. Funny thing is, we never used to change our own oil. It was used to just top off.

I also liked the RDX a lot when we were test driving. Ultimately, I thought the signature was the best value out there.

It*s not like I run it empty every time. I just try not to do like my dad and fill up as soon as it gets down to half. He used to gate so stressed when it got less than 3/4 full.

I ran mine for about 10 miles after the light came on and I was able to fill up 13.1 gallons. So about 2 gallons sound right.
