Traded RL........Farewell

Saturday I traded my 2005 Carbon Grey/Taupe RL (39,000+ miles) for a new 2007 MDX Sport Black/Taupe. I love the sport suspension on the MDX..........rides great. I will miss the RL, she was a fine car, but I wanted more room again.

I would post a picture, but I don't seem to have that option on my setup.

I just wanted to say thanks to all for the great information over the last couple of years....this site is great. Hopefully I will get just as much info on the MDX site.

Thanks again!!

The MDX is great. I'd be driving one if I didn't already have an '04. Good luck and enjoy it.

'grats. I'd have an 'X if my wife hadn't loved the Pilot so much.

Congrats on your new wheels. I love the way the new MDX looks. Very sharp.

I bought my 2006 RL about the same time the new 2007 MDX came out. It's definitely a 'sweet' ride. If I hadn't bought the RL, it would have been my second choice. Good luck!

Saw your "New X" post on acuramdx.org. Good choice. I always thought it looked best in black. Makes the front less pronounced. I'd trade in my Sienna for an MDX tomorrow if it came with Keyless start and adaptive cruise. Hell, even the Veracruz has keyless start now and that's not even a "lux" brand. Oh well, I'll just wait to see what they do with the 08's. I'm not optimistic.

Congrats! I traded in our 06 LS430 for a tech/ent MDX which lasted 45 days till the day a box truck decided to clip the rear bumper and forced us into the center median.

Held up pretty well, but due to the extensive undercarriage damage insurance totalled it.
