No, it's not a Q7,a QX60, an RX350 or an XC90 ... but that's a good thing. Dollar-for-dollar and feature-for-feature, this SUV is by far the leader of the pack. I purchased an MDX Advent (Advance with Entertainment Package) for $25k (several thousand below the competition) ... and from an Audi dealer! Ride, comfort and performance are top shelf. The nine-speed transmission can be a bit much on takeoff, but shifts nicely, unlike others I've driven. This model has all the safety features, including the birds-eye camera, lacking on many competitors. The power folding mirrors come in handy in the garage and at the car wash. The dual screens require a bit of getting used to, but once mastered are a great feature, especially with the navigation at eye level. On top of all that, it's a good-looking vehicle, especially since Acura replaced that "smiley-face" grill (it was my primary reason for avoiding so much as test-driving one). This one's a keeper!

I love my MDX except for the transmission and the “feature” that turns off the engine upon stopping. The salesman told me that feature can be turned off in the system settings but it can not be. It can be turned off every time the vehicle is started but it’s extremely annoying do that. If that’s a feature then a tooth ache is enjoyable. I’m not sure what Honda is doing with this 9-speed transmission but it’s horrible. When I was a kid we used to make go-carts and have pulleys and belts with bailing wire holding everything together. The go-card would jump and jerk to get up to speed. And often slip and be unpredictable. That’s what this 9-speed transmission reminds me of except it’s in a $55K vehicle. Ridiculous!
