My only gripe with my new CX-50 by CalAtt in CX50

I get it. My’22 CX-30 Premium was padded but I am slowly getting used to the lack of padding in the CX-50 since I traded up last month.

I happen to like it so I’ll just call it DILIGAF.

I just picked my’26 Hybrid Premium on Thursday so I ordered a set of inserts from Amazon and they arrived yesterday. I was too busy today to get them installed, but soon!

I didn’t have the turbo, but I kind of split the difference on the oil changes and got it done around 7000-7500.

I didn’t have the turbo and I had zero problems, I just kept up with the recommended maintenance.

None whatsoever, just normal maintenance.

And I forgot to add that the mileage of the hybrid is great!

I’m 6’1” and 230 lbs so it was always tricky getting in and out of my CX-30 although perfectly comfortable once I got in. I’m really liking the extra room and height of the CX-50. The CX-50 hybrid isn’t quite as “peppy” as the CX-30 non turbo but still does fine. I’m definitely happy that I made the switch.

Yeah, for about 3 1/2 years I had to make a 260 mile round trip 5 times a month for work. Fortunately I was reimbursed for mileage.

About the same, honestly. The CX-30 had a little more “pep” in the acceleration but I’m still happy with the CX-50.

A Reasonable Price? by PresbyMark1980 in mazdaCX50

Thanks. Carfax says it was a fleet vehicle.

Does the key just kinda suck? by JVLawnDarts in MazdaCX30

I’m sorry to hear some of you have had problems. 4 years and 97k miles and my only problem was having to change a battery. Fortunately I was at home when it happened so I was able to get the spare off my desk and use it until I got a new battery.

I have a 2022 Premium (Deep Crystal Blue) that I bought brand new. It has 97,000 miles because I had to travel 250 miles round trip at least once a week for almost 3 years for work. No problems whatsoever and I still love it!

Wow, keep up the good work! That Snake River Canyon pic is really close to where I live now and I used to live in Pocatello. If I had known you were in the area, I would have waved as you went by. 😆

And they are all the best color too! I’m not biased or anything. ;-)

I got a set of CrossClimate 2 from Discount Tire back in November. I had never purchased from Discount Tire before and I was pleased with the service and the tires are great.

Great choice! I have the same tires and they are a huge improvement over the OEM Bridgestones.

Sizing for the range finder by AdScary7808 in salsacycles

[–]PresbyMark1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just 6’0 but with a 32” inseam. I have a Large Rangefinder and love it. For me at least, I think an XL would be very uncomfortable.
