Subject: Nissan Rogue or Mazda CX-5?
I have rented both. CX-5 has much better driving dynamics, but I find the seat to hit me wrong. As such I prefer the rogue.

This.
Ask any 5 people with Nissans how many replacement transmissions they have between them. You’ll get at least 2, minimum. Lifetime failure rates on Nissan CVT’s are in the 20% range.

Ha?! Could you explain it more? The engine part… I should just look it up, I guess.
Just look it up.
Search “intake valve carbon fouling on Mazda DI engines” or “SkyActive engine compression issues”
I think a lot of people who buy Mazda’s don’t really know much about cars. They buy them because they’re pretty (they are pretty). But I understand engines. And there is no F’ing way I’d keep a Mazda after 50k miles or so.
If you don’t plan to, great. Have at it. But if you plan on putting 100k or more on it, find something else.
Agree this is odd- my CX5 has 90,000 miles. I have done routine maintenance but never had an issue. And love it, OP!

My brother and his wife recently got a Toyota Rav4 and absolutely love it. I have driven it once and liked it plenty.

I disagree with you. I had a CX-7 and had it until 114,000 miles with absolutely zero issues. Traded it in for a CX-5 which currently has 86,000 miles. Im upgrading to a new one this spring but hands down will never buy another car.

Interesting! What cars do you like in the large-sedan/small SUV category?
It’s really hard to beat the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord and Toyota RAV-4. The Honda CR-V has had some issues with it’s CVT as recently as 4-5 years ago, but I haven’t seen any newer ones come through our place for transmissions (probably still under factory warranty).
Camrys and Accords are boring, though. And I don’t make much money fixing them.

Why do you say that?
Because that's their reputation now. What they lack in performance or features they makeup in the ability to finance underwater loans as part of the purchase.
Hmmm - that is not sustainable…
They’ve been doing it for 20 years, so apparently it is.
