    Feeling guilty- too big?

    I cannot imagine you would be comfortable in the cx5! My husband is about 5 10 and he is so much happier w the 9.. On a comfort level there is no comparison!

    Traded a CX5 for CX9

    I have a dark gray GT FWD.... I loved all the features of the GT CX 5 just not the seats! So far I love it...so comfortable! We are thinking of moving to lake arrowhead area...do you like it? Is it too far from everything?

    Bye,bye CX5....

    Yes, absolutely, seat comfort is a very individual thing...I had some concerns the first night home, and my hubby said I just needed to get used to it. I am 5'3" and 120 lbs.... The bolsters in the back hit me right in the bottom of my shoulder blades and no matter how I adjusted felt them...

    Bye,bye CX5....

    I loved everything about my white GT cx5 except the seats.....after a 12 hr trip in Nov my back has not been the same.....finally came down to the car.... After scheduling appt at the chiropractor, we were at Mazda for an oil change and looking around the lot. I planted myself in the front...

    Feeling guilty- too big?

    Thanks all, I may have to make more 12 hr trips north as my parents are aging, and my hubby is a big guy....he wanted a highlander to begin with... Having a small car is definitely easier to park, but I have driven our tundra and used to own a minivan. I do agree the cx9 is probably the best...

    Feeling guilty- too big?

    I love, love the comfort of this car, but it's just me, my hubby and 2 pugs.... Any other empty nester/ single folks? Great family car for sure, just feeling guilty for all the gas I'll be sucking...! Also, do you find it hard to park? Truly drives like a dream though, so far....

    Traded a CX5 for CX9

    Thanks- that makes me sad, but I guess w the money I save at the chiropractor I can afford more gas! After just 2 days of driving her I feel so much better!

    New cx5 blue

    I can't believe they have just released this gorgeous reflex blue mica color, 4 months after I bought my white GT! Love, love it! And I am not a big fan of a black interior.... I don't get why they can't give you a choice between black or tan in all colors. Also saw that it seems the...

    12 hr road trip - mileage/comfort/ wind noise

    Passenger seat I agree- I think Mazda should offer options for the passenger seat, like electric control and lumbar... I think many folks would pay for that! I have never had the heated seats before and they are wonderful! Thanks--

    12 hr road trip - mileage/comfort/ wind noise

    After just returning from a 12 hr road trip just thought I'd share some comments.... I bought the cx5 end of Aug 2013. I am very happy with it, especially driving around suburbia.... But commented before about the hard seats. I was worried about this trip, but did well...until about 7 hours...

    New 2014 GT CX-5 hard seats?

    Wow! Ha! Thanks for the offers, my hubby is a big guy, so guess he'll be the seat stretcher! Like I said I have no problem driving around town, but for the upcoming long drive I got a gel cushion at Walmart that I hope will help a lot! I think the hardness of the seats just makes my whole...

    New 2014 GT CX-5 hard seats?

    We just purchased pearl- a white w tan leather GT. I have no problem driving around town, but drive her 400 miles last week, and sitting in the passenger seat my back was killing me! The seats and leather seem very hard to me. I bought a gel cushion at walmart, and this helps a lot. I am...
