2008 Mazda CX-9

he CX-9 delivers a cavernous interior with seating for seven, a long list of safety equipment, and a smooth on-pavement ride, but can't match the car-like performance or value of others in its class. If you're in the market for an affordable large SUV, you should also consider the highly rated Chevrolet Tahoe and the Toyota Land Cruiser.

With seating for seven and a fun ride, the 2008 Mazda CX-9 is an attractive alternative for prospective minivan buyers. The 2008 CX-9 was voted North American Truck of the year, an award that's voted on by 45 automotive journaists at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Clearly, the CX-9 has made a positve impression on automotive experts.
