Looking at replacing my current toad (currently have a 2001 Honda mini-van) w/ something that has at least 6 seats. I know Blue Ox makes a kit but did not see were motorhome magazine said this was towable for 07.

Sorry to bear bad news but I have an 04 Mazda3 with the 2.3 and 5 speed and it is NOT towable according to Mazda. The same wording in my manual is in the 07 Mazda5 manual. See Mazda manuals for online version of Canadian manual by clicking Parts and Service -> Owner Info->Owners Manuals. Page 245-246 has the scoop. I also looked at Remco web site and could not find a transaxle disconnect either.
