We still love our car and so does Consumer Reports!

A bunch of people have asked recently what kind of car we are going to buy when Baby #3 arrives. We don't plan to. We have an awesome Mazda5. It was recently picked as the Best Family Hauler in the Consumer Reports Top Picks: Best Models of the Year in 10 Categories.

Here is what they had to say:

Family Hauler: Mazda5

The Mazda5 microvan offers a lot of practicality in a compact, affordable package. With three rows of seats and sliding rear side doors, it combines the convenience of a minivan with the maneuverability and stingy fuel economy—24 mpg overall—of a wagon. The interior is airy, with good fit and finish. Plus the Mazda5 is fun to drive, with a nimble feel and a comfortable ride. The addition of standard ESC for 2010 improved its emergency handling. If you need more room, consider the Honda Odyssey minivan. Price: $23,805.

Just for fun, here is a picture of us the day we bought our Mazda5. Circa June 2006.
