    LOL, I do understand the tears comment, just cracked me up. As an Independant and with multiple generations of Marines in my family, I take a very different approach to our political system. Still the comment was spot on and the responses were tasty funny!

    Hopefully my fellow peeps will like Toyota's Global offerings. Be interesting to see what all changes.

    Love the Lineup! Sadly, their time has come and the future is bright with zippy EV's, Hybrids and other tech auto's to enjoy!

    We'll this pretty much finishes off manufacturing for Australia and no one can blame them as costs are just crazy there for such a small market. Hopefully the Aussies will enjoy the new global models.

    Hate to say it, but this seems like overkill. Also due to VW current Dieselgate, I wonder if they can really pull this off. Course they just did become the worlds biggest auto builder thanks to China.

    Nice write up. I have to agree on the tire size, they should have made 18" default on the rim size, those tires do look tiny. I get that this is made to transport mass people but the seats look uncomfortable to me. The rest of the interior is nice for a Mini Van. Exterior leaves me with a blah feeling. I know this is subjective, but for me, Pass. Not a minivan man myself.

    Protests & Death, Amazing how destructive #45 is to our country. More unrest and hurt people than at any other time. Narcissist #45 needs to be Impeached!

    I agree push it to 2030 and let them continue to drive the EV.

    True, the older models did not have these and while I agree they should have it did not seem to stop the people buying the auto and using it well. @ccap41 I know what is posted for the CX-5 even when you post it twice. I am just saying that my real world experience with the CX-5 and CX-9 is less desirable than the message others put out there including MPG.

    Been driving the CX-5 as I loaned my full size SUV to a coworker and have been monitoring the MPG, I have yet to crack 20 on this CUV. Better than the CX-9 but nothing like has been stated and has so many of the same issues as the CX-9. With that, if the CX-9 and CX-5 I make the assumption the CX-3 is not far off from these then. Yea everyone seems to think the world of the Mazda CX CUV lineup, but I bet more real world input is far from the marketing message. Your entitled to your opinion as am I and my own experience has left me less than impressed.

    This would be exciting to see come to a dealership near you soon.

    Have to totally disagree with you CCAP, the CX line sucks and after having spent extended time in the CX-9, I could never recommend the CX CUV lineup to anyone. Jeep, Ford, Chevy or GMC before the Mazda CX line. Terrible entry and exit, pathetic weak motors, tight cramped space and over all fit n finish leaves much to be desired. In fact the 4 I mention all have beeter Nav, Bluetooth, Andreoid / apple play systems than the Mazda. Nope, Pass on the Mazda CUV family. Not worth it at all. Having spent considerable time in the Mazda cuv line since the start of Dec, I have yet to get anywhere near the MPG stated for the CX-9 or CX-5. Those MPG figures are totally false in real world driving.

    CNG was a natural stepping stone away from OIL towards the day of EV auto everywhere. I now see no need for Hydrogen as EV is coming into it's own. Why waste R&D / Tax dollars on this when they should just focus on EV.
  18. G. David Felt
    And your thoughts? Did they have any in the test drive area?

    YAWN, with all the problems VW has, Believe it when you see it. Plus how BORING this car looks.

    In washington state, we have plenty of them and most are the V6 that I see in the city and up on the pass. They seem to be solid AWD CUVs that just go. People I have talked to like them and I have not heard anything really bad other than those that have the 4 banger wish they got the V6. Seems smoother and a bit more get up and go. I suspect the newest redo on the CUV can change allot of this especially for the 4 banger, but if you are looking used, then you should go AWD V6 and do not worry, they seem to handle very well in snow. If you need new tires, I would go with Bridgestone Duellers.

    Bummer, sorry to hear you had to go through hell. I think I have everything ready. My mom and dad are back at the house and things for now have settled down, but I expect 2017 to be a rollercoaster year as both have poor health. Thanks for sharing and the support.

    wow, That is really hideous!

    There is nothing wrong with taking the knowledge one learns and applying it in a new and different way to make a better product. People do this all the time. Yes if you sign a non compete clause and leave to a new company or start your own and just copy the work you did at the old place, you should get the law thrown at you. We have brains and can rethink our knowledge in new and exciting ways and I believe many who learn new stuff, then think up better ways to do it leave to do just that, Prove they can create a better mouse trap that competes but is built totally different than the last place they worked.

    Heavy Socialism and tax's cause jobs to walk!

    That is what I thought, when on the web site they look Identical, but downloading the pictures the GMC does look darker but that I think is due to the lighting as they put the light on the Escalade and back lite the GMC.
