My LY 8 and the new family truckster

My wife and I were lucky enough to add a baby girl to our family 6 weeks ago and thus we needed additional transportation. In addition to our 8 we now have this '06 Mazda5 Touring w/ Nav. It's a great all around family hauler and to top it off, a blast to drive! Just thought I'd share. Enjoy!

Thought I'd add a couple of night pics and a plain 'ol driveway pic for the heck of it.

Congrats, good luck with the girl. When she turns 16, I see a hardtop MX-5 in her future. Keep Mazda in the family!

No way, you live in Atlanta?

Anyways, love the yellow 8, especially the rims. The 5 is alright, but not one of my favorite rides out there. But, I'm glad you bought a Mazda.

IMHO thats what set Mazda apart, their cars are fun to drive. I bet that even that wagon or whatever it is called drives like a car. ZOOM ZOOM

Thank you for the nice words everyone. We are really loving the 5. Mazda has a way of making every car in their line up fun to drive. I never owned a Mazda prior to purchasing my 8 and I may very well stay with Mazda a long time if they keep up the good work.
