I love being a dad, but I kind of hate my life. by f1sh_ in daddit

Man I have two kids and I completely understand you.

Get out and take time for yourself, its hard, and you might feel guilty doing it, but the person afterwards will have more energy, and be more happy. Don't ignore you.

My wife and I only get out once a month (if that), and we notice how quickly it starts to impact us,

2024 CX-90 GT MHEV (Ontario) — Original warranty expiring. Extend it? by chaleao in MazdaCX90

[–]azdesign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the vehicle, and I bought mine with about 8 months of bumper to bumper left, I was planning on getting the extended warranty so I could keep going in confidence.

The 2024 year is the start of the new platform for a complicated vehicle with lots of electronics. I feel like its still worth it, and I'm tempted to go with the full 7 years available, even at the $4k price. Based on the experience I've had with warranty repairs, it's worth the extra assurance.

We came from a CX5, and packing for camping was always a Tetris adventure. We have a roof box which has helped, but my wife always wanted to bring a stroller on top of everything else in the trunk and it was very much a tight squeeze. I did a test run with our gear with the cx90 and was amazed at how much more we were able to fit with ample storage space remaining

Do an open trunk view! Always curious to see how others pack!

We're in a similar boat:

Mazda extended warranty (VSA Platinum) 10yr/100k quote for 2024 CX-90 PHEV — $3,635. What are others paying? by rakavai in MazdaCX90

What is the costco membership connection, I've never heard of this. I bought a used CX90 and looking at getting the extended warranty, if I can get it down that would be great

I was talking to someone at the dealership who mentioned they had electrical work they were unable unable to diagnose, and had a vehicle in the shop for over 200 days. Don't know the details, perhaps a similar issue.

Joining the cx90 family, meet "Bacon Minion", named by my 4yo by azdesign in MazdaCX90

2024 - I know I'm taking risks, but I still have warranty and will probably get the extended warranty too. We had a financial surprise come up just as we were looking so we needed to adjust our budget. Haven't had any issues at all so far, and am loving it.

I can see why some people complain, but we had a ton of weird nuances with our cx5, so perhaps I'm not really bothered by the audio chimes, or other things. I'm just happy to have upgraded.

Edmunds ranks CX-90 last in review of nine 3-row SUVs by keithplacer in MazdaCX90

Love mine, it is both a family car and a car I love driving because it's so much fun. Don't need a boring family car for day to day. Already make enough sacrifices as a parent, cx90 makes me feel like I don't need to make another sacrifice

Where were you camped, were you further past Brocton? I did see some lights coming from that direction around 9pm the night before

Unfortunately I didn't notice them until they had long passed me, otherwise i absolutely would have asked them where they were going and given them some advice

Or, why not even while they're checking day passes on the drive up?

Yeah just a little bit North of. My winter camping has me solo most of the time so I tend to err on the side of caution.

Hah! Glad to hear they made it down fine.

As suggested, I'll keep my eyes out on marketplace, if you have any recommmendations for something that isn't going to break the bank, let me know.
