I've been trying to decide between the 2. Having a 3rd row would be nice but its not necessary, the main reason we looked at the cx9 was for larger cargo space behind the 2nd row but its not that much of a difference between the cx5 and cx9 behind the 2nd row. Is it? We are comparing the touring on both and its about a 7,000-8,000 difference.
Anyone have a trailer hitch on their CX5 with a flat tray attachment for more storage if needed for long trips?
We think we are down to the CX5 and CX9 after looking at everything. Rav4 too loud, didn't care for the gas pedal feel of the CRV, new Santa fe didnt like the tranny, We looked at the telluride but are wary of kia and a brand new vehicle, looked at the honda passport but it doesn't get great passenger safety ratings, looked at the VW tiguan and it was nice but VW reliability is meh, also the atlas same reasoning. Subaru Forester Sport was nice but I don't think I want another CVT after having a Nissan CVT that was crap and wife has a subaru legacy thats actually awesome with their CVT.
