we didn't think we would find anything that fit us and not have to spend much money and do a close to even trade but the mazda 5 seems to be a great option for us.  Anyone have one or know much more about them I have done some research and they seem to be  great.

    We're a chevy family.  We have and Equinox and a Cobalt.  The equinox is great for us because it has a lot of back storage and plenty of carseat/leg room in the back.  However, It can only seat 5, not 6.

    I like staying American because they are generally less expensive to fix and the parts are easier to get.  Plus, it's better for our economy. 

    Sorry I don't have more info about the Mazda. GL

    My SIL has the Mazda 5 and loves it.  She drove a small car before and says that it handles as well if not better.  I will say the back seats are a little tight, but if you're putting kids back there and not adults, everything should fit fine :)

    Did you have anything specific that you wanted to know about it?  I'm more than happy to ask my SIL :)

    I am considering it too. We have a minivan that is dying and cannot afford a new one yet.

    Our second car a Subaru will not hold three car seats and is pointless in June. I had a Mazda Protoge before and loved it. I put 200 miles on it and the only times that it ever went into the shop were for routine maintenance and when I forgot to set the emergency brake (manual transmission) and it attacked another parked car.

    Thanks ladies that is helpful.  Well the research I have done they seem to be awesome.  We have a Mercury Montego but we have 2 large dogs and our first on the way and hope to have two pretty close together I want to get it figured out now not later and we are pretty much doing an even trade only have to pay maybe 6 months to a year

    It's one of the ones we are considering.

    Both Consumer Reports and Edmunds like them.
