Sho's 7th Mazda!

Congratulations on your wedding @bigsho!

On the other hand, always sad to hear when a community member passes away, RIP Evan.

Excellent post though, not only updating us on your CX-70 experience but life as well...Congratulations once again and wishing you the best!

First snow of the year!

The wife went down to KY in her 3 last weekend for a baby shower and had a few instances where her phone lost reception and couldn't use maps. So hopped on Amazon and ordered 2 $28 navigation sd cards since the 25 mz3 and cx70 apparently use the same cards. Got em both and put them in both vehicles. Maps work as intended and the added bonus of the speed limit signs being put on the guage cluster (although not always accurate) is nice!

Did the same thing. Wish it had voice command not that circular weegee board letter selector.

SD card is required to use the native nav?

SD card is required to use the native nav?

Absolutely!

Played around with TCS off in an empty parking lot this morning after dropping the wife off at work. Was fun tossing this thing around despite its size!

Got a good workout in cleaning off the cars and shoveling the driveway as well.

That certainly looks like you must have gotten a good workout!

How's the CX-70 handling the snow and winter conditions?

On proper snow tires it'd be a beast. On the factory 19" toyo's, it did fine. Can definitely tell its RWD biased, but its playful and well balanced. Easy to make corrections if needed! Waiting for a proper snowfall to find an empty parking lot to really mess around in with TCS off and in sport mode. As one thing I did notice isnt very responsive in normal mode for holding a slide lol.
