1. How did you come to the decision of buying this car?
My girlfriend and I moved to Seattle from Chicago six months ago. It's our first car as "adults" (technically hers) - we knew we wanted an AWD crossover for adventures but easy maneuverability in a city and smaller parking areas. A few months before the move, my little brother (differential/transmission specialist mechanic) suggested the first gen CX-5 and we never looked back.
2. What has your ownership experience been like?
Overall, the CX-5 has been everything we needed. 10K miles in just six months thanks to the cross-country move and plenty of adventures since. It's meeting our needs and giving us little trouble along the way. I detailed a full rundown of our experience so far a couple weeks ago here.
3. What is your fondest memory with this car?
Our cross-country move takes the cake here. Driving through Badlands National Park, Mt. Rushmore, Missoula, Coeur d'Alene and all the other scenic parts of the US along the way to the PNW made for a great drive.
4. Why do you love cars?
It's a family affair, tracing back to SCCA roots in Wisconsin via my grandfather and two uncles on my mom's side. It's been a fascination throughout my life - the thrill, smell and sounds mixed with the sense of control and speed cars afford you on an open road. Every drive should be enjoyable, and it's not hard when you have a passion for the vehicles getting us around every day.
