Jealous! We were celebrating when we got 37.3 on our back roads! It's a contest between me and my husband to see who gets the best stats - so far he's waaay in the lead.

If you mean the Escape hybrid, I chose the CX-5 because the gas mileage was better on the CX-5 for highway (35 versus 30), and it was a lot less expensive. Same thing for the CR-V - plus we needed the additional ground clearance that the CX-5 has.

It's FWD - we have the most basic model. We got it up to 35.6 today...average speed probably between 50-55 mph. As someone else said, I'm still babying it and driving as smoothly as I possibly can, and that makes a big difference. On the other hand, the drives we take are also hilly and windy...

That did it! It's not easy, but it eventually worked. Thanks!

How do you remove the front floor mats?

Okay, this sounds like a dumb question, but I can't figure out how to get the front floor mats off the grommets. Owners manual is no help. I need to clean them off. Can someone give me idiot-proof instructions? Thanks!

My husband and I just bought the MT Sport CX-5 and I love it! We had two trucks, a Ford F-150 and a Toyota Tacoma. We're giving the F-150 to his son and keeping the Tacoma. Though we definitely wanted to keep a truck (we camp a lot), we HAD to have something with some reasonable mileage. We...

We got ours at invoice, well below the regional TMV according to Edmunds. The transmission makes a funny noise that we discovered on our final test drive (it goes away when the engine is warm; I can't even hear it when I'm driving under normal circumstances with the AC or something running and...

Have had mine about a week, driven about 350 miles, just did my first fill-up. Computer shows an average of 34.3. Mostly highway and country backroads. Loving it!

Count me in on wanting information about aftermarket stereo. My local audio shop says there's nothing out there yet for it, since it's so new. The current stereo isn't bad, but I want my satellite radio, and I didn't want to pay $600 for Mazda to install it. Couldn't get any kind of upgrade...
