Can anyone weigh in on these vehicles? I would really like to put three across when we have our next one... looking for Spring '08 to have our third. The thought is that if I can put three across I can reach back and hand things to all of them very easily. Whereas if we kept the van, DS1 would have to go in the third row and I would not be able to reach him at all. We take 4 - 5 7hr long trips per year and this would not be a good situation!
We just bought a Mazda Speed3 and I love it. It is so much fun to drive. We put winter tires on it (Dunlop Winter Sport M3's on 17"rims) and it drives fantastic through the snow. Much better than the van in fact. So, now that I know we like Mazda we were looking at the CX-7 and CX-9. I'm not totally positive that we would ever use the third row but I'm used to the van and not sure if I want to give up that third row... even though I almost never use it!
My other thought is that they just debuted a concept speed version of the CX-7. So do I wait until that comes out or just pick a vehicle now and go with it? Decisions, decisions...
