Wife drives a CX-5, and I'm in a 2014 RAV4. Both are the tits.

What year is the CX-5? What kind of technology package do you have in it?

It's a 2016 Grand Touring. It's tricked out with pretty much everything they offer. Mrs. Fish likes her toys.

Got it. That's the trim level I'd be looking at as well. Remember what it cost you?

The grand touring is pretty awesome. The girlfriend got one a month ago it was a left over 2016 and she ended up paying 26 or 27 for it. If you go with the cx-5 you definitely won't be disappointed

I would look around at the Mazda dealerships in your area and try to find a 2016 model. They are pretty much the exact same as the 17. Most dealers are willing to take quite a bit off of the 16's just to get rid of them since they have the 17 models out

There's a split screen. One side is the normal backup, the other shows an overhead of your car backing up. Like a bird's eye view of the whole car.
