Considering buying an Acura MDX

Jan 2005

Greetings to all, I am considering purchasing an Acura MDX. If there are any MDX owners out there please let me know how you like the car. thank you erika

We love our MDX. It's roomy, and rides like a luxury car. We have three kids, so we use the third row, which is nice. Our only complaint is that it is hard to get back to the third row (ie on road trips- when the kids are complaining, it's not as convenient to get to them as it would be in a minivan). Also, gas is expensive, but better than most SUV's. By the way, it's excellent for driving in the snow. Kelly

Quality, independent Acura shop?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a quality independant shop for Acura maintainance? Or positive/negative experience with the local dealers in Oakland/Berkeley? Stewart

Can anyone recommend a reasonable, trustworthy mechanic who works on Acuras (other than the dealer)? I'm looking for someone in Oakland or Berkeley. Thanks. mef

Car seat for small backseat in Acura Integra

Nov 2002

I'm looking for an infant carseat with a relatively short length, so it will fit in the back seat of my Acura Integra and still allow reasonable use of the driver and passenger front seats. I've already called the Oakland dealer - no luck - and also left a msg for the helpful El Cerrito police officer recommended recently on this network. There are a lot of small cars out there - has anyone else out there found a car seat which works in small car backseats?

Our Century SmartFit fits quite well in our 8-year old, 2-door Honda Civic Coupe. It was inexpensive and highly rated for safety by Consumer Reports. Gen
