I definitely liked the way the car hugged the road. I felt very secure while driving my car and never feared for my safety. Additionally, it had a great sound system. The seats were incredibly comfortable, and I just cannot say enough positive things about the seat warmers. On a cold Connecticut morning, I can always count on the seat warmers to stop my goosebumps and shivering. Additionally, I liked how roomy the car was and how I was able to fit all three of my very large children in the backseat. The engine was a bit noisy for my liking. However, it got terrible gas mileage. I felt like I was constantly spending money on gas especially with my long commute to work each day. The trunk was a bit small for all of the things I would get at Home Depot for home repair, and I would have to greatly maneuver everything around to get certain cuts of wood and appliances to fit.

The first time I drove my Acura MDX I felt like I was driving a luxury vehicle. I had just sold my Mercedes SUV and was worried I wasn't going to find another SUV that drove so smoothly. I had shopped Fords, Chevys, and Hondas, all to no avail. However, a newer Acura MDX had just hit a car lot so I decided to take it for a spin. Within three miles I knew I wanted this vehicle. The inside was roomy, with plenty of space and I didn't feel cramped like I had in the other vehicles. In addition, there was very little noise in the cabin and it felt like I was driving on a marshmallow - very comfortable. I knew that Acuras were safe, but I wasn't sure how it would do in the snow and ice that I drive in every winter. Being an all wheel drive (AWD) I was willing to give it a shot. Five years later I can safely say this car is worth every penny we spent. It does phenomenally in winter driving conditions and never budged, even on the worst of days. I love the safety features and its sleek design. Although my vehicle is now almost ten years old, there are new models coming out that almost exactly mimic the MDX body type. I feel like I still drive a stylish vehicle.
