I had a ton of running around this week from meetings, events and taking the kids to school, so I was excited to try out the Mazda 6 i grand touring.  It provided me with everything you would need in a mid size car.

This was such a fun vehicle to drive. I was also very impressed with the gas mileage this car got. I ran around the with car all week and all over the place and by the end of the week I still had a 1/4 tank left. The kids loved the sunroof and all the leg room they had. The feature my husband and I agreed on that was total genius is the console-area knob that can control the 7 inch touch screen making it so much easier to control the radio and functions.

Another great feature is a head-up screen called an Active Driving Display. It sits directly in front of the driver, showing you the speed. Driving in the city with this car was great.  The back up camera totally helped when parking in the city. I can’t wait to try other Mazda’s. If you’re looking for a sedan for your family this car is perfect; or if you’re looking for a sporty good looking car this is it.
