Also marvel at my mad parallel parking skills.

plot twist the accord wasn’t there when you parked

How’d you know?

Fake news, you used a crane to park in there. Haha I love showing off parallel parking skills to my girlfriend. She is always impressed when I can get it nearly perfect in one try. A few years working in a ridiculously crowded valet parking lot sure gave me those skills!

No interest in a CUV though! Although the Mazda and Subaru ones are about the only ones I even thought could be mildly interesting.

Not bad but I’ve seen better:

2.0L FWD or 2.5L AWD?

It’s very bland but surprisingly good to drive for what it is. Steering is exceptionally tight and direct.

My car is at home being sold and I need something to drive in the meantime, so I traded cars with my stepmother.

It is better than the white BMW X1 I have as a loaner?

Not sure but I think everyone is fairly close.

How is it off-road?

My wife and I haven’t done more than snow, gravel, grass, and dirt in our 2016 Grand Touring AWD, and won’t until it gets parking lot damage more than just a small nick or scratch, haha.

Not my car nor is it a rental car so I don’t plan on finding out, but safe to say pretty atrocious. Its a FWD model.

Are you sure?

well thats good at least. vague and light steering is what turns me off the most in new cars. Its always refreshing when one isnt terrible.

I’d happily trade you, I’ll put it that way. I like the Mazda, but I’d prefer a BMW.

Looks like a taxi service, especially with the paper in the windshield. Those fuckers could parellel park a space shuttle at mach 30. Even better are the tour bus whisperers that can park those behemoths anywhere.

FWD, slow, a useless fuel dial that constantly moves and I have no idea how to use the damn hockey puck looking thing.

How do you like driving my moms car?

Rico > Wrong Wheel Drive (41%) 10/04/2017 at 14:41

Lol yeah, it was a taxi for a group of NYPD brass that were having a meeting at that building.

Having test driven the 2015 CX-5, that sounds about accurate for it too really...

It’s perfectly fine actually. Not what I’d choose to drive but apart from a rear windshield wiper that needs replacing and the fact that I’m not used to keyless go without keyless entry I have no complaints.

That was my conclusion too. Just a fine mid level automobile. Hers happens to be the leather/nav version.
