The countdown to National Park Week (April 20-28) is on! In our last blog post, we shared how much fuel the 2019 Mazda CX-5 would need to take us from Fostoria to Yellowstone National Park.

The park is absolutely breathtaking with its giant Saguaro cacti, rock formations, and various wildlife species that can miraculously survive the harsh desert climate. For our Saguaro National Park adventure, we are going to take the 2019 Mazda CX-9, which we are certain will have enough space for everyone’s gear. Read the rest of this entry >>
