    Dislikes about your MAZDA 5

    Easy. Armrests. Why skimp out on them? The driver side armrest can also stand to be a little wider/longer. The seat behind the driver would be the best seat in the house if you had a place for your left arm to rest.

    Mazda5 Big Haul

    I went with KYB. Regular fare. It rides a lot better now. I looked up the load capacity a while back. From memory, it's something like 1200lbs?

    3rd row seat won't fold down?

    Humm, I have a similar problem. Pull the strap, there's a clunking sound like the spring-operated release isn't engaging properly. If I wiggle and give the seat a good push, it will fold down, but it's a pain. The release cable may be stretched? If I could remove the felt backboard, I'd have...
