If by Mazda5 you mean the mini van we have one and I love it. Same bullet proof drive train as the Mazda3. We are getting around 20mpg real world (city/highway) driving.

You can stack 6 foot 2x4's between the seats and still shut the rear hatch (don't tell my wife).

As with most things it is a compromise, good handling for a mini van but not as nice as a sedan.

but super roomy... I would like to try camping/sleeping in the back of it but haven't got around to doing that yet (I'm 5'10" and pretty sure I could lay out with a sleeping bag and the seats down).
