2010 Mazda CX-7 Sport Test Drive and Review

I've been trying to help my friend Andy find a new SUV for about a year and a half now. His old Jeep Grand Cherokee is failing, and he wants to buy something more fuel efficient. Andy's cheap, though -- he doesn't want to spend a lot of money. He uses his vehicle for work, and probably needs the space of a mid-size, rather than a compact, SUV. It's been a long haul, because Andy is very particular.

When I got behind the wheel of the new CX-7, I realized that I might have found Andy's new SUV. It has all the space he needs, and with the new 2.5 liter inline four-cylinder engine, it can get 28 mpg on the highway. And equipped the way Andy would like it, the CX-7 can list for $22,340.

Unfortunately, while I had the CX-7, Andy was very busy with work. So was I. So he didn't get to drive my test vehicle. Maybe I can convince Andy to read my 2010 Mazda CX-7 Sport Test Drive and Review. Maybe I can convince you to read it as well.
