Nah, that's not really what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that it seems like you're trolling this forum for the sake of trolling. What happened, did the Mazda 3 guys kick you out?

How many of us have an iPhone and DGAF about CarPlay? Enjoy your 3.

What's worse is when people start throwing the word 'trolling' around when they see an opinion they don't like.
Enjoy your new CX-5!
That'd be me. If I want to use my phone, it's with Waze, not ACP. The HUD, I want.
The reversing camera makes the rear parking sensors pretty much obsolete.
The fronts are very helpful for parallel parking as it's not clear precisely where the front of the car is.

I don't find then unnecessary. What happens if you are distracted and not paying attention to the screen? Sensors will still advise you that something is there

Yeah, I prefer the backup beep-beeps on my Escape to the backup camera on my husband's Tacoma. It's what I'm used to, and plus, you're supposed to be LOOKING behind you when you back up...
Indeed. I look at the camera, listen to the beeps and look at the back (obviously I can't look at the camera and back at the same time!)
Hey I'm not arguing with either of you, I'm just trying to make myself feel better given we don't have them here!

Can anyone confirm if there is a power outlet in the front now on the 2017 CX-5? By front, I mean right under the dash and in front of the transmission stick. In the 2016, the power outlet was inside the center console armrest/storage area.
Didn't think you were. I certainly wasn't!
Sorry if I caused you angstIt should be noted that the usb ports in the centre console are not the same output as in the rear centre armrest. Hence phone charging apparently is painfully slow.

No, none at all!
Poorly worded on my part. Was attempting to convey my denial/envy.

I'll know for sure when I pick mine up tomorrow, but I could have sworn I saw 2.1 on the front USB ports when I test drove a couple weeks ago.
Unfortunately no

As well as a 12V in the rear cargo area.
I thought so too until I drove the in-laws Nissan Dualis/Qashqai (smaller Rogue) which didn't have parking sensors at all even on the top model despite having 360 camera. The screen and glare on that was so bad I couldn't see it backing out and hit another car. Never thought parking sensors would be so useful until then. It would have saved me over $1000 that time.
Some people like them, others don't.
Each to their own
It's not about liking or not liking. It's how useful it is and parking sensors are definitely useful IMO
