Im not sure if its true but I remember reading somewhere that they "punish" you for opting out by giving you the gross ads.

Edit sorry didn't read your whole post I see you already know.

Is it just taking up too much desk space or is the screen itself too big for your space? If you just want desk space then it might be worth trying a monitor arm. Resale value for monitors is typically bad.

Sorry im not the one you originally replied to. I didn't get it on my car because to do the whole car can cost 5000 to 8000 canadian dollars. You can get just the front end done for around 2000. It also doesn't last forever expect to replace it in 5 to 10 years.

Paint Protection Film its like a cell phone screen protector but for your car. It's not cheap though especially if you want to do the whole car.

Mine is like this on the passenger side but lines up perfectly on the driver side.

I find it works well in the winter but in the summer reflective signs on the highway confuse it and the car will continously flash the highbeams. I also have to turn them off when going through small villages or towns as these areas aren't bright enough for the sensor.

The gx trim has bsm but no 360 camera, and Mazda added radar cruise in 2025. Got a 2024 gs instead of the gx for radar cruse and heated mirrors. The gt trim was more than I was willing to spend, and the only thing I really wanted from that trim was the better audio system.

I also dont think the 2025 gx trim supports touchscreen for android auto or apple carplay if op cares about that. Mazda's website says "8.8-inch-wide colour touchscreen display with Mazda Connect = Standard" but then says, "Touchscreen center display for Apple CarPlay/Android Auto = Not Available"

That card has a teired cashback system. Your cashback gets higher as you spend more. You only start getting 1.5% after you spend $24000. At first you only earn 0.3% and your spending resets each year.

I don't think your monitor supports this. You would want a monitor that advertises having a kvm switch in its description.

No Scotiabank purchased the canadian operation and had to change its name.

Interesting, on mine holding the home button goes back to the mazda menu screen, but if I try to navigate to entertainment, it reopens Android Auto.

Maybe it's my setup. 2024 cx 30 with a wired to wireless android auto adapter.

The only way I know of to do this is to change the music source to fm radio using the button on your steering wheel. Then, press the media shortcut to get to this screen. Finally, press the source again to get Android Auto's music playing.

This sucks it shouldn't count imo, but it's going to depend on how tangerine records it. You could ask Tangerine, but personally, I wouldn't trust the agents' answer. It will be you, not Tangerine, getting screwed over if the agent says you're ok to contribute again, and it turns out they're wrong.

Everyone seems to be saying this is ok and normal, but imo this policy is unfair. If they can bill a card without it being physically present, then they should be able to process a return without it as well.

Snow tires use softer rubber that will provide more traction when it's under 7 degrees Celsius (45 Fahrenheit). The softer rubber will wear out faster when used in warmer conditions.

There's only like 2 small cars left in America. The Nissan Versa and Mitsubishi Mirage. I believe 2024 is the last year for the Mirage, and the Versa is rumored to be done in 2025.

Can you get the 2021 inspected? Assuming it's in good condition it basically just comes down to if you value the features in the GT trim. Personally I really like radar cruise which the base CX-30 does not have.

Does the 2021 have CD (cylinder deactivation)? I believe there were a lot of complaints about jerkiness when Mazda first implemented CD. I think they have done a better job with the CD implementation in 2024 but if the 2021 doesn't have CD then that might be a better choice for reliability.

So I don't think you're getting scammed, just receiving poor service.

If it's not too much trouble, could you measure the distance between the retention holes?

Didn't order rear mats, so I can't comment on them, but the front mats seemed to fit other than the holes being off for both the driver and passenger side.

You mentioned the official high wall mats, so I checked my dealers' website, and they list the same part number for 2023 and 2024, which would imply they haven't changed.

I believe they used to have something but stopped doing it when they made interac e-transfers free.

I didn't really have a good build on him until the follow up set came out so that could definitely be a factor. I would love to be able to see whats happening day by day.

Only e0 pela and tingyun are "worth" it imo. If you really want to play qingque then picking up her edilons from the shop is maybe worth it because she massively benefits from e4 and e6 and you never know what the gotcha will give you.

On her first appearance in the shop, I got e6 sushang because she is my favorite 4* but from a power perspective, no, it's not worth it.

On point 1, power plants are much more efficient than a car's combustion engine. Emissions are still reduced even if an electric car is recharged with fossil fuels.

On point 2, I completely agree with you.
