Which should we get. Same price.

Any opinions on which we should get. We have two kids.

It all depends on wants, needs, and usage. I moved from a 2013 RDX to a 2015 MDX for more room. If this will be the family hauler and you plan on taking family trips you may appreciate the extra space of the MDX. Be sure to really check out the 2014 MDX to see if it displays any of the issues reported in the forum. Good luck with your decision.

I have two kids. The third row comes in handy for carpools. MDX.

I'm fat so I was going to ask how much more comfortable it was between the two.

I have a 5 year old and one on the way next month. I went back and forth between the 2016 RDX and MDX for months until I finally went to the dealer and compared them back to back.

Not even close for us: MDX.

The RDX would be the perfect car for us if we didn't have kids. But I coach baseball and soccer and my wife is an active mom, so it was a no-brainer for us. We already have an MDX and thought we could downsize as a complimentary vehicle, but we felt like we'd give up too much space and utility.

The MDX is wider giving you more room in shoulder/hip area.

Wife drives an RDX and I got the new MDX. If you need space and have kids id go MDX. If its just you and Significant other, RDX.

And you don't have to fight over the center armrest, it's wide enough for two.

MDX, I test drove the RDX and it felt like a station wagon.

MDX is a lot more cushy and the extra room is nice.
