Posted in the MDX section by yours truly..

I am a TL'er hopping over from the 3G section. I fell in love with the Acura brand couple of years ago. Listing the grounds for such affection in this venue would be completely unnecessary due to obvious reasons but I am compelled to admit that while power, reliability, amenities and good customer service very rarely coexist in the same brand; I feel Acura -so far- has managed to fulfill such challenging task.

Few weeks ago I decided to add an MDX to my stable. It’s a 2012 MDX with Tech package, black/black with Sport Running Boards. The MDX & TL seem to have a wonderful time bonding in the garage; unless one of them is out grinding the roads..

 

congrats! we need pics

 

Love the MDX. Once the TL-S is mostly paid off I'm getting a fully loaded MDX.

 

Congrats! I love my MDX.

 

Congrats. MDX's and TL's look good together in the garage.

 

<3 <3 MDX.

They had a certified used one fully loaded at the dealership when I got my TSX. I was so tempted.

But I need manual and the ability to (somewhat) slam. At least while I'm still young and somewhat cool.

When I start poppin out them babiez, HELLO MDX!

 

^---- if singular baby, then MDX... if plural babies, then i see more of an Odyssey in your future.

 

<----- working on my MDX

I luv them!

 

nice!! welcome to the 3G TL and 2G MDX club!

 

Nice choice! Love the 2G MDX!

 

My garage is the same combo! love them both!

 

So, although this room is extremely biased, you'd all recommend the MDX? I'm looking for an CUV/SUV addition for my lovely companion and wanted to stay true to Acura.

 

I like the MDX because (IMO) it's the only luxury SUV design that doesn't have soccer mom written all over it.

My only other consideration is Audi Q's.

 

only a little bit of bias. when i was shopping nothing else really suited me or my tastes (honda, infiniti/nissan, toyota...really couldn't see myself step down into mainstream after being spoiled by my TL). the MDX has it's own unique look and the features like the SHAWD...and a host of other goodies that are as appealing, reliability, sportiness, creature comforts of luxury, and minimal soccer mom image.

agreed

 

I love the MDX but why no push start????

 

I'm not an SUV guy although if I was the 2G MDX would be top of my list.

 

That's actually exactly what I was looking at as well. The Q5 is beautiful. I love the inside and out but the MDX is a strong competitor.

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks

 

I would of course pick the MDX, but for much less you can get a fully loaded Lexus.. my sister just did that. She loves it. Anyway, I wouldn't want to cross over to that side. I love Acura.

ALTHOUGH.

My neighbor just bought an explorer. In white. And I never thought I would say this about a Ford but...

"Wow"

 

No, you shouldn't be surprised. Ford really stepped up their game in the last few years!

 

Congrats HiRev! A 3G TL and new MDX (with its 5000# tow rating) complement each other nicely & should cover all your needs for years to come. Well done!
