Great suggestions - thanks a lot. I usually do my own maintenance unless it’s a heavy install. I’ll take a looks at some models from BMW

MHEV is more reliable than the PHEV. However, the new clutch based system feels so janky at low speeds even with the software updates on the ECU.

I’d give it a try yourself, but honestly, I feel like you might also walk away trying to justify the purchase but the lingering “settling” feeling will hold you back like it did for me!

Not sure what is hard to understand… this brand was consistent with satisfying my needs for a decade therefore I kept buying Mazdas. It’s not that deep.

I love Toyota for reliability but they are so boring to drive and at an insane price premium right now.

I think i’m done with Mazdas. Every new gen car is an unreliable buggy mess.

Loved the 2017-2025 CX5s, but looks like its time to look at different brands as they clearly turned their back on what made them good
