Received my 2008 White Diamond Pearl Base RDX today. After driving it for much of the day (how could I not) I am very impressed with it. There has been a fair amount of snow flurry activity for the last few days, and the streets are a mess of wheel ruts, messy snow, and patches of ice.

Overall, the RDX handled it like a champ. Moving from ice to chunky snow to bare wheel tracks, the RDX was never out of control, took the corners easily, and braking was very good. I was prepared to be disappointed with the tires for variable winter driving, but they did fairly well actually.

I do have a few questions for the gang here though, if you will indulge me:

1. I've been doing mostly city driving (30-40mph) today, and the range seems really low on the MID. Anyone else experience this, and will it adjust after the first tank?

2. I am glad I saw the thread about the foam liners for the compartments, as I can see how they will be appreciated. Anyone here order them from Canada?

3. The seatbelt for the driver has a plastic shield that sits just above the level of the seat, and I've noticed it digs into the seat when I get in...anyone have problems with this damaging the leather over time?

I must say, overall I am very impressed. It took some playing to get a feel for the throttle in the snow, but it worked out well overall.

Any responses greatly appreciated.

Cheers

 

Could You Elaborate About The Foam
Liners?where Did You See Them For Sale?
Thanks

 

There is a thread on here somewhere about it, they are foam pads that line all the little cargo/accessory compartments, but I can't find it at the moment. Perhaps someone will be kind enough to link it for us...
