Congratulations and welcome to the club. Do I have to tell you that you got to post pictures. . Just kidding. Enjoy the ride, ask any questions if you have. We'll be happy to contribute. Good luck.
Yes, it's an awesome car.

Welcome to the forum Mark. The V6 is the second most popular reason (behind Honda/Acura reliability) that members say they've purchased this vehicle. You'll find a lot of tips here but dive into your owners manuals to find really in depth info about the RDX systems.

Cheers!

Congrats and welcome! If you don't mind how about sharing some details, like, price paid, miles, FWD or AWD, package like tech or non-tech, color, tires OEM or other, and anything else...

Just if you want to!

Thank you,, I had been searching for a RDX for about 2 months on the local Acuras dealers lot ,and at Carmax . When a 2015 with less than 15 k miles showed up at
Carmax its pearl white with tan interior , I paid $28,000., arranged my own financing ,I found the buying process at Carmax straightforward and stress free.
I would buy there again .

The dashboard/MID will tell you which service is due. Just cycle through the screens with Info button to see how much oil life is left. Peruse the manual, of course. Dealers hope you'll bring the car back in 3000 miles but don't waste your money. Most people get around 8K miles or more between oil changes. Don't forget to read the manual! Discount Tire will do tire rotation and air pressure checks for free.

We're a 3 RDX family, we have a '17 advance, we sold our '13 Tech to one son and my other son has a '14 Tech, all black.

You got a good car but one has to be careful at CarMax. My son sold his '08 BMW to CarMax at New Years because he knew the car wasn't that far from needing expensive engine-related repairs.
