2015 Mazda CX-9 Review

We test drove the 2015 Mazda CX-9 for a week, all opinions are our own.

Mazda has become one of my top picks for cars, especially when it comes to safety.  The new 2015 Mazda CX-9 was the perfect size for our family.   We test drove the 2015 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring All Wheel Drive (AWD) in Titanium Flash Mica.  The price is pretty average for an SUV and the cost for the configuration we drove is $39,890 – MSRP: From $29,985.  This vehicle can tow anywhere from 2,000-3,500 lbs, not bad for an SUV!   It also has a ton of trunk space.

Thankfully gas prices are going down so we didn’t need to fill up to much with the CX-9.  One thing I absolutely loved is that on the dash it told me exactly how many miles I had to go before I needed to fill up.  Most cars I have to push a button to find that info and on the CX-9 it’s always displayed.   It has a 20.1 gal tank and you can get up to 16 City, 22 Highway, average 18 MPG.

We test drove the 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage for a week, all opinions are our own.

The 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage is a fuel efficient subcompact car.  The main thing we loved about this car was the pricing and the gas mileage.   We didn’t fill it once and it still had a half tank when we handed it in.  (MPG – Up to 37 city, 44 highway)  It comes in 8 different colors ranging from fun and fresh to neutral tones.  I myself am a fan of the neutral tones.  Sweet Baby was really impressed with the Plasma Purple and kept calling it Minnie Mouse car!  In fact she loved this car so much she really got upset when we had to give it back.

My review of the Hyundai Sonata Sport 2.0T is my first time actually driving a Hyundai.  Chris and I both have never driven in a Hyundai vehicle and now we’re shocked that we’ve waited this long.   From the sleek design of the […]

We test drove the 2015 Kia Sorento SX AWD for the week thanks to DriveSTI. The 2015 Kia Sorento Review isn’t going to be much different then our review the 2014 Kia Sorento SX Limited AWD.  The design hasn’t changed and we’re happy about that.  We fell in love with the design last year during out […]
