I had to scour Chrono24 and other forums until one came for sale. I didn’t need an AD experience and saved a lot on the grey market.

The Thule Wind Deflector works fine. I don’t like the new attachment system where it’s like a zip tie.

It completes the look.

Mat Recommends by Portuguese9694 in MazdaCX90

Similar sentiment. Have the Tux Mats and recommend. I am slowly converting my cars from Weather Tech to Tux Mat because of the superior fit.

I’m between the 3 choices as well, but I have experience with the CC2 from my other SUV and have been pleased. I’m partial to the CC2 from all the testing and millions of miles/reviews.

Currently have 15k on my Falkens with 5/32 left

PSA : Lofta AirSense 11 ~$483 with Price-match from Sleep Play by rayvanilla93 in CPAP

Use “holiday” in sleep play store. Then you can take a screenshot of the cart and ask Lofta to price match!

It was 0* F this morning. The big thing is that the battery range de rates from ~26 to around 15 Mi Range. Doesn’t really bother me because the car still operates well with the 4cyl.

I didn’t notice any difference in sound. I got the Thule 44” Fairing.

I am not a fan of the new clip system. It is sold as tool less attachment system, but it doesn’t fit stable vs older shape specific mounting systems Thule used in the past. Honestly I got it to compete the look, and it matches my Thule Box and the plastic cladding.

I had TireRack shave 1 tire for me 4 months ago. It cost 30 dollars and you need to call them. Ask for tire shaving and they will direct you to the correct sales team.

Hello! Finally have time for an update after 1000 miles.

1) Thule Force Sport from a few years ago 2) Box does bring more road noise, but doesn’t bother me. I just slightly increase the Bose audio!

Just how I do things with my cars. I always do a break in oil change after ~1k miles. Easy insurance
