Just picked it up

2020 RDX with Tech/Advance package...Black/Brown. Replaces a 2015 Audi Q5 TDI that was deemed total loss in an accident that was 100% other drivers fault. I was considering the RDX back in 15 when I decided on the Audi. Will miss the diesel but happy with the Acura. Amazing how much new technology has come on line in 5 years..

Congrats! I also went from a Q5 to the RDX. My Q5 was the 2.0T though. Drive it in good health and keep the shiny side up!

Tech OR Advance. Two different packages. From the rims, looks like Advance. The Espresso interior is nice. That's what I wanted but the wife won out with parchment. Yeah, lots of new technology. Now if they can just get it all to work right.

Congratulations and good luck.

Congrats, and welcome to the forum!

I'm not sure what a "Tech/Advance" package. From the picture, it has the Advance package wheels. What is your location?

I don't think we can buy Advance without Tech package, correct? So I guess I just should have said Advance as it automatically includes Tech package.

I'm in the Portland Oregon area...

It's cool! I wasn't sure if this was some foreign (unknown to me) trim or package... I know, Acuras are not sold world wide as Hondas are....Oh well.

My wife and I spent a week in your neck of the woods last summer, driving along both sides of the Columbia River...in a rented '19 RAV4. While it competes in a different class than the RDX, THAT sure turned us off to the RAV4! (We ended up buying a 2020 CR-V to replace my wife's car a few weeks ago.) LOL.. But very beautiful area. We took in the normal touristy things in Portland, then we went up to Mt St Helens, and then headed east along the South side of the river through the Columbia River Gorge, stopping many, many times to see water falls, etc...(This is a big deal for us in Arizona!) We went as far as Lewiston, ID (where we took a jet boat ride) then back mostly along the North side. Then we had an extra day so we went out to the coast to Cannon Beach. It was a very nice trip.

Again, welcome to the forum, and we look forward to your thoughts, contributions, and most of all, questions about our fabulous RDXs!

I got a summarized owner manual with the car (40 some pages). Should I have also received the detailed on (500+ pages) I can find as a pdf online.....? I'd like to have a hard copy in the car, but I guess we are paper free now?

You can get a paper copy for free during the first 6 months of ownership. Owner's Manual

I keep the pdf on my phone and PC. It's sometimes easier to word search for something. The 650 page book is in the glove box. Takes up a lot of room. Only took a couple of weeks to receive in my case.

Thanks for the link to getting a freebie! I had just placed an order for $100 or so for the owners/nav manuals...Cancelling those orders because FREE is better !
