      Nothing is MADE in the country it says it is. The VIN Sticker may say that it is manufactured at the assembly plant, but assembly plants literally only assemble nowadays. The only MANUFACTURING plant that Mazda has that is currently active in the USA is the Alabama Plant, which is a joint venture with Toyota. And they only produce parts for a few vehicles. Made in the USA is just an advertising campaign anymore.

      Camaros, fun and good looking. Good quality.

The vehicle gets decent gas mileage. Engine is powerful enough to do all tasks you demand from the car.

    and body/interior color choices
    were UNLIMITED. Take 1976 for
    example… Chevy Nova or Cad.
    Seville, Granada or Maverick,
    Dart or Aspen, Hornet or VW
    Rabbit???? Coupe, sedan or
    wagon??? 6-7 different interior
    colors, body colors yellow, reds
    orange, greens, purple… 1970’s
    “ malaise era”? Todays SUVs
    In black grey white all with grey
    interiors… today is the malaise era. CB

      I'm sick of SUVs and stupidly large pickup trucks that should require a different license to operate. Both can be sold without the same safety requirements levied against cars, making many of them considerably more dangerous to the driver and other drivers or pedestrians. I'd like to see more hatchbacks and station wagons; I really wish the Subaru Outback Wilderness had an option for manual transmission or a different kind of automatic transmission. It verges on being an SUV, but offers better visibility and rollover prevention. My Wilderness is among my favorite cars, knocked to second place by my WRX TR which I'm building out for more off road capability.

    Hybrid vehicles cost more tyan ICE vehicles, negating any cost savings with the hybrid's higher mpg. Then you have the issue of battery replacement for the hybrid system once it dies after 8 years or so of use. Will be expensive to replace.

  • @chrisharper2658
    @chrisharper2658 23 дні тому +1

    You quoted the CX-5 and CX50 engine ratings wrong. Both cars have the same engine options so you quoted the higher premium gas ratings for the CX-50 and the lower regular gas ratings for the CX-5. But the most critical omission is that the CX-5 still has the multi link rear suspension while the CX-50 has the cheaper torsion beam rear suspension which may provide more cargo width but sacrifices handling over uneven pavement. Newer isn't always better.

I considered the Meridian, but back then it only came in two colors with only one interior color option if you chose leather. The other (sporty) versions seemed to ride too firm without the handling.
