    New member and some questions

    The cx-5 may not be a luxury brand but the quality is very high. Yes the info system is poor but the rest of the car is very high quality. I have owned 5 Mazda's over the years and none of there gave me trouble. Some were well over 150000 miles with nothing more than routine maintenance.

    New owner of a Soul Red 2015 CX-5 Touring...random questions/thoughts

    Mileage will be lower because your car is new and the cold weather. I usually get 27 to 28 mpg in summer but winter is 24 to 26. that is even with a warm engine and a 50 mile commute. Wind is another factor here in Iowa a strong wind which is a lot of the time will also lower your mileage

    Does anybody actually use the Voice Recognition in the CX-5 ?

    I use it for hands free calling. I work but not real great. The best. Thing is to wait a few seconds between commands. Seems slow. To respond to commands.

    Just pulled the trigger

    I had a 2002 miata SE and I can tell you that the cx-5 is no miata in the twisters, but for a high profile vehicle is does quite well. Enjoy the cx-5 but it is not a miata.

    Just back from dealer and asked about the USB problem fix and they said they haven't heard about a fix. I doubt if there will ever be one. If there is one I will be in line to have the work done.
