 We did a lot of research to determine what would replace our Limited AWD minivan.After looking at many vehicles we narrowed choices to the Toyota Highlander and the Mazda5, and determined the Highlander was too truck-clunky uncomfortable compared to the Mazda5.The style of the Mazda5 is more contemporary compared to the older looking Highlander.Also, the mpg was so much better with the Mazda5.We are saving $100 per month in gas compared to the minivan.PROS: smooth ride, styling, 6 seats so kids can bring friends, price, gas mileage, heated leather, dark gray color, hip ride, bluetooth phone and tunes, xenon headlights, storage compartments, traction/stability control, safety.
