STATE FARM IS PROUD TO SUPPORT John: WHILE MAZDA, LIKE EVERY SELLS MORE UTILITY VEHICLES THEY SEEM TO EMBRACE MORE THAN MOST, THE MOST FUN TO DRIVE CROSSOVERS STILL, COMPETITION IS INTENSE, PEOPLE MOVERS.

THAT'S WHERE THIS REDESIGNED SO LET'S SEE WHY IT'S GIVING * THE 2017 MAZDA CX-5 KICKS OFF MAZDA'S COMPACT CROSSOVER.

THOUGH TECHNICALLY, STILL RIDING ON THE SAME IT HAS BEEN HEAVILY REVISED WITH AIMS TO PROVIDE AS WELL AS MORE COMFORT OF COURSE, MAZDA IS ALSO, A LOT OF THE YEOMAN WORK NOW WITH NEW G-VECTORING CONTROL [ENGINE STARTS UP] UNLIKE MOST IN THE SEGMENT, A STRAIGHT 2.5 LITER BUT THERE ARE THREE MORE TORQUE REMAINS THE SAME AT BUT NEW SOFTWARE HELPS IT FEEL A THAT'S EVEN WITH AN ADDITIONAL NO MORE MANUAL TRANSMISSION, IS NOW STANDARD, BUT ALL-WHEEL TOWING CAPACITY IS ONLY GOVERNMENT FUEL ECONOMY RATINGS AS THE CITY RATING FALLS FROM THE REST ARE UNCHANGED AT OUR AVERAGE WAS RIGHT ON, OF REGULAR.

THE ENERGY IMPACT SCORE 12.7 BARRELS OF ANNUAL OIL WITH EMISSIONS OF 5.8 TONS BODY WORK IS OBVIOUSLY NEW, TO THE LARGER CX-9.

THAT MEANS A LARGER GRILLE; AND FULL LED HEADLIGHTS THE ROOF LINE HAS MORE OF WHILE THE BACK END IS WITH DUAL POLISHED EXHAUST TIPS.

LIKEWISE, THE INTERIOR TAKES ON PERHAPS NOT QUITE AS POSH, A BIG STEP UP FROM BEFORE.

THE SAME BASIC MAZDA AND DOES THE BASICS WELL; REQUIRE A LOT OF MENU HOPPING.

HOPPING IN THE REAR SEAT, THAN BEFORE, OF CARGO SPACE, WHICH FALLS THREE-PIECE SPLIT-FOLDING THAT SPACE TO 59.6 CUBIC-FEET.

ALL OF THE CHASSIS WORK PAYS OFF IT'S NOW QUITE PLEASANT, IN ITS CLASS.

AND DON'T WORRY, IT'S STILL STEERING DYNAMICS ARE GOOD, BUT THERE IS AN UNNATURALLY FAKE SUSPENSION FEELS NICE AND TIGHT.

SEAT COMFORT IS OKAY, AND THE CENTRAL ARMREST SITS TOO THINGS SURE DO LOOK LOOKS RESPONSE OFF THE LINE SPORT MODE DOES SEEM TO LET YOU WITH A NICE AGGRESSIVE THE TRIP TO 60 TOOK WITH OUR QUARTER MILE TIME AT 85 MILES PER HOUR.

THE CX-5 IS WELL-BALANCED THE AFOREMENTIONED G-VECTORING IT CUTS IGNITION SPARK ON USING ENGINE BRAKING TO SHIFT FOR MORE GRIP, ENGAGING THE WHEEL BRAKES TESTS SHOW IT ALSO MAKES ON TWISTY ROADS.

WHEN IT DOES COME TIME TO A SHORT 113 FOOT WAS OUR AVERAGE PEDAL FEEL IS SOFT, BUT OVERALL PERFORMANCE IN ADDITION, SMART CITY BRAKE IS NOW STANDARD ON ALL MODELS.

BASE PRICING IS PAR FOR WITH TOP TRIM GRAND TOURING ALL-WHEEL DRIVE CAN BE DESPITE BEING ONE OF THE MOST FIRST GEN CX-5 SALES SO IT WAS CLEAR TO MAZDA THAT AND WE LOVE GOOD HANDLING SUVS, AND SERENITY ARE MORE IMPORTANT THE GOOD NEWS FOR US IS, KEEPS THE FUN FACTOR HIGH, A MUCH MORE PLEASANT THE GOOD NEWS FOR MAZDA?

CX-5 SALES ARE FINALLY HOT!

John: OUR SUCCESS STORY THIS TENNESSEE, FOR A UNIQUE SEVIER COUNTY UTILITY DISTRICT AND BEGAN SWITCHING WHEN NEARBY THEME PARK RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD, NATURAL GAS WAS THE NATURAL ALL SIX OF THEIR DOLLYWOOD'S FILL UP EACH MORNING AT BEFORE HEADING OUT TO AS WORD GETS OUT ABOUT AND COST SAVING BENEFITS OF CNG, ARE MAKING THE SWITCH.

Matt Ballard: WE'VE GOT WE'VE GOT A VEHICLE IN AND WE'VE GOT IN SEVIERVILLE.

WE'RE JUST NOW, AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS THE COUNTY HAS JUST NOW GARBAGE REFUSE TRUCK.

John: TO DATE, AROUND 94,000 GALLONS OF DIESEL, LIKE THE EAST TENNESSEE THAT NUMBER WILL SURELY CLIMB!

* THE NUMBER OF FATALITIES ON ON THE RISE AGAIN, THOSE DEATHS ARE BEING WITH CELL-PHONE TEXTING BUT COULD A SIMPLE DEVICE BE THAT'S SO URGENTLY NEEDED?

OUR FYI REPORTER LAUREN MORRISON Lauren Morrison: NINETY-SEVEN IT'S A PROBLEM...

YET, 7 IN 10 DRIVERS AND THE CDC ESTIMATES AROUND 9-PEOPLE ARE KILLED, IN CRASHES THAT INVOLVE NUMBERS LIKE THAT DON'T MAYBE BEN LIEBERMAN'S [SOUNDS OF AMBULANCE SIRENS] Ben Lieberman: YEAH, I GOT THAT YOU KNOW, I GO THAT CALL, AND MY SON WAS INVOLVED.

Lauren: IN 2011, WAS IN THE BACK SEAT OF A CAR EVAN ULTIMATELY DIED "THE FIRST NIGHT, "HE HAD A 10% CHANCE TO MAKE IT SO HE MADE IT THROUGH AND IT WAS A REALLY UP, BUT EVENTUALLY, WE LOST HIM Lauren: WHILE, THE DRIVER OF SAID HE FELL ASLEEP, Ben: WE STARTED ASKING QUESTIONS AND WHAT THEY DID AT AND, AND WE REALIZED THERE'S Lauren: BEN WAS ABLE TO GET A HOLD OF WHICH REVEALED THE DRIVER WAS THE ACCIDENT.

Ben: I THINK, I GOT THEM IN FEBRUARY.

IT WAS SIX AGONIZING MONTHS FOR Lauren: FORTY-SEVEN STATES HAVE BUT WITHOUT A CONFESSION IT'S A CRIME THAT'S HARD TO Ben: THERE WAS NO DETERRENTS TO MY OTHER CHILDREN, KNOWING THAT, THERE WAS Lauren: DRIVEN BY HIS GRIEF BEN APPROACHED JIM GRADY, THE CEO OF THE DIGITAL CELLEBRITE.

Jim Grady: AND HE TOLD US ABOUT THE DATA AFTER AN ACCIDENT AND WHETHER THE OTHER PERSON AND WE THOUGHT WE CAN DO WE CAN PROBABLY HELP.

Lauren: THE DEVICE THEY CAME UP WHEN CONNECTED TO A PHONE, THERE HAVE BEEN ANY TAPS OPPONENTS OF THE DEVICE HAVE BUT CELLEBRITE SAYS, LIKE WHO YOU TEXTED, WOULD BE OBTAINED."

Lauren: IN ORDER TO PROPERLY I AM GOING TO BE TEXTING BUT WE'VE BLOCKED OFF THIS SO WE CAN DO IT SAFELY.

I'M GOING TO OPEN UP SOME STUFF AND ALSO, ON FACEBOOK MESSENGER, GETTING THERE'S A LOT GOING ON AND I CAN OKAY, SO I'VE BEEN OFFICERS ARRIVE ON THE SCENE.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Jim: THE OFFICER WOULD ASK YOU AND HAND YOU THIS CABLE.

AND YOU CONNECT THIS CABLE Lauren: SO YOU NEVER EVEN HAVE TO THE OFFICER?

Jim: NO, IT TAKES ABOUT THE RESULTS.

I SEE HERE YOU OPENED WHATS APP, AND A REGULAR TEXT MESSAGE.

Lauren: AND SO, BUT IT DOESN'T SAY, WHAT ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

Jim: NOTHING LIKE THAT Lauren: THE TEXTALYZER AND SOME TIME AWAY FROM ACTUALLY BUT THE DEVICE IS GAINING LEGISLATION WAS INTRODUCED AND THE GOVERNOR THERE HAS THE TECHNOLOGY.

OTHER STATES LIKE TENNESSEE, HAVE ALL EXPRESSED INTEREST FOR BEN LIEBERMAN, AND HOPEFULLY, A CHANGE OF DISTRACTED DRIVING.

HE SAYS, HE NEVER SET OUT BUT FOR HIS SON EVAN, Ben: I THINK, HE'D BE HAPPY COME OUT OF IT.

HE'D PROBABLY BE A LITTLE BUT, IF YOU WOULD HAVE SAID TO ME ABOUT BEING AN ADVOCATE; I'M NOT THE GUY, BUT YOU SEE SOME THINGS YOU KNOW, IT'S HARD TO John: IT'S ALMOST WINTER, YOUR PRIDE AND JOY IN FROM BUT, AS PAT GOSS IS ABOUT TO Pat Goss: MOST OF US OR A CUSTOM VEHICLE, LONG PERIODS OF TIME, YET HAS WELL, IF YOU HAVE THAT IF YOU WANT TO LET IT SIT WITHOUT DAMAGE.

FIRST, IS FRESH OIL?

OIL PICKS UP ACIDS AS IT'S USED, INSIDE YOUR ENGINE, NEXT THING IS COOLANT.

IF ITS LIQUID COOLED YOU WANT DETERIORATES EVEN AS IT SITS.

YOU WANT THE PROPER TYPE GASOLINE.

YOU WANT THE GASOLINE IN AND YOU WANT THE GASOLINE TO BE OF STABILIZER, AND GUM UP THE CARBURETOR VERY IMPORTANT.

ALSO, BRAKE FLUID.

BRAKE FLUID IS HYDROSCOPIC, IT AND JUST BY SITTING IT CAN THAT IT DAMAGES BRAKE PARTS.

SO FRESH BRAKE FLUID, EVERY TWO YEARS NO MATTER WHAT.

TIRES.

WELL, ONE THING THAT YOU CAN DO THE TIRES UP, DON'T GO BEYOND THE MAXIMUM ON BUT HIGHER PRESSURE WILL HELP AND SPEAKING OF FLAT SPOTTING, THAT'S THE BETTER WAY TO GO.

JACK THE CAR UP, MAKE SURE THE STANDS ARE AS POSSIBLE, THE SPRINGS WILL BE LOADED.

IF YOU LEAVE THE SPRINGS AND DON'T FORGET THE TOP PART OF THIS IS FOGGING OIL, THE DIRECTIONS ON THE CAN, BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T YOU COULD FOGGING OIL WILL LUBRICATE AND KEEP THEM IN GOOD CONDITION, LIKE VALVES AND SO ON.

AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE BATTERY WE DON'T WANT TO DO WE DON'T WE WANT TO USE A BATTERY THE MAINTAINER WILL KEEP A LEVEL STATE OF CHARGE LIKE A BATTERY CHARGER WOULD.

AND A BIG SHOUT OUT TO HIS GORGEOUS 1950 I SAW IT AT A CAR SHOW I FELT THAT IT WAS BEST OF SHOW USE IT HERE ON THE SET.

AND IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION, RIGHT HERE, AT MOTORWEEK .

John: WE FILLED UP THE TANK, SO TIME NOW FOR A QUICKSPIN.

WE'RE NOT SURE WHICH IS THE FACT THAT BENTLEY IS OR THE FACT THAT IT WILL HAVE THAT HAS CLEARLY BEEN THE CASE WHERE WHAT FIRST APPEARS TO BE QUICKLY TURNS INTO THEIR SO, LET'S CHECK OUT BENTLEY'S * THE 2017 BENTLEY BENTAYGA THE MOST EXCLUSIVE SUVs MONEY AND ARRIVED WITH PERFECT TIMING, AND LUXURY CONSUMERS ONCE AGAIN BUT, BENTLEY DID HAVE SOME THE BENTAYGA'S BASIC PARENT VOLKSWAGEN'S WHICH ALSO CARRIES PORSCHE'S HOWEVER, THE BENTAYGA IS AT ALMOST 17 FEET LONG.

WITH THAT TRADITIONAL BENTLEY AND SEEM TO TRANSLATE MUCH THAN WITH ANY OF THE PROTOTYPES BOTH THE STRUCTURE AND BODY WITH STEEL USED ONLY WHERE ON ROAD, THAT TRANSLATES THANKFULLY LIKE AS THE BENTAYGA DOES AN AMAZING NO MATTER THE SPEEDS ALL THE SERENITY OF PRIOR WITH PERHAPS ONLY SOME MINOR A REMINDER THAT YOU'RE NOW IN A 48 VOLT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS RIDE ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED, SELF-LEVELING AIR SUSPENSION SET THE DRIVE MODE TO "BENTLEY" ENGINEERS WOULD HAVE SET UP WHEN ONLY SPEEDY POSH WAS SIMPLY DIAL IN COMFORT OF CAPABILITIES.
