2019 Ranger XLT
It was attached to a Mazda CX-30.


Got the CX-30 the same day the Ranger hit 50k.

Some members in their “I’ve moved on” threads say that there is no emotion for them. For me, after driving nothing but 2 Rangers for 27 years it is an interesting thing. There have been no tears but I’m not going to lie, seeing the Ranger relegated to the driveway that first night was f’d up.

I wanted to try something different and I am pretty sure the 30 will be a great experience.

This is an awesome site and I will continue to check in here. “I’m like a bad penny, I always turn up.”

The paint on those Mazda's is amazing in the sunlight they just glow.

Funny enough, one of those was just in front of me leaving the UPS parking lot, looked a little on the quick side, made me wonder what engine packages they had.

HOLY CRAP! The colour looks amazing. You’ll definitely miss your Ranger but if you have to do truck stuff, you can probably borrow one of those f’cked up trucks your neighbours drive. ?

I had a 2011 Mazda 3 that I bought new during my senior year of high school. May not have been the smartest financial move but unlike the Toyota I was driving, it was reliable, had ac and very fun to drive. I wish I had kept it but it wasn't a truck and I've always preferred trucks to cars or suvs.

Great choice! We absolutely love our 2023 CX-5 Turbo. Mine is a beautiful blue. I had a white one with same specs set to purchase for 3K less, but wife wanted the blue. Once the sales rep got a hint of that I lost my leverage. Still got a decent price well below list, but my wife happily paid 3K more for that blue!

I would have walked, but she wasn't having it, and I actually wanted her happy. It has been a great car so far. I'm going in to the dealer soon to have the modem disabled. Fit, finish and build are amazing. Very quiet.

Mazda quality is real. I had a number of them as rentals for a week (work travel) and their fit and finish is always spot on.
