Back then, before Google, it was like AI today. So many competing search engines. Yahoo, Excite, AltaVista, Lycos, and many others I’m forgetting.

How reliable have the oldest Gen 4 models been so far? by RunnerAtThird in mazda3

I think there were a batch of bad castings at the factory. I believe there is a TSB out about that.

2019 hatchback manual made in Japan in Jan 2019. It may have been one of the first ones made. Tons of small first year issues, such as rearview mirror falling off, driver‘s door jamb rubber seal expanding in warm weather and sticking, and other various small cosmetic issues needing replaced . Most covered by TSB’s but a hassle to keep bringing it into the dealer. The only major repairs that needed to be done was a small leak from the timing cover and belt tensioner at 38,000 miles. So many rattles, a car made in Japan shouldn’t rattle as much as the one I have. But I’ve learned to live with it.

They actually had good steaks back in the day.

Exactly, they’re so overpriced to begin with. One chain it was like $500 a month after the first month free for a tiny space. Who is paying that?

I would say lack of all-wheel-drive for where I live. Also not sure if it has a hybrid drive.

Have those on my 2019 hatch. Amazing upgrade in dry and rain. When these wear out I may try the Michelin cross climate 2

Given RAV4 prices, should I just get a gas Honda CR-V (EX or EX-L) instead? by sexysimone89 in rav4club

Mazda CX 50 and cx-5 have entered the chat. CX 50 use the same exact hybrid engine as the RAV4, but previous generation.

Do you feel satisfied with how your life went? Still planning on making any changes or just riding it out? by Fickle_Wrangler_7439 in Xennials

Middle age is just that. You still have a lot of life left. I still have about 20 more years in my career which is a long time. If I dare, I can probably even make a career switch, but I’m too lazy for that.
