2004 Mazda B-Series Truck 2dr Cab Plus B4000 SE 4WD SB (4.0L 6cyl 5M)

I paid $18,300 for this truck brand new. There are probably better small trucks out there, but not at this price. For what I paid, I'm quite happy.

Favorite Features

Off road capability, exterior styling, reliability, snow traction.

Suggested Improvements

Better visibility for tall drivers, better fuel economy, more attention to fit and finish

Review

Perfect reliability, 18 to 20 mpg, this truck was a good deal when I bought it and has been everything I could ask for since. I traded in a 3 liter Ford Ranger I called the turtle because the motor (and transmission) was such a slug but the 4.0 is a much better powerplant and the mated automatic transmission is a world better as well. It tows a trailer quite well and has now been across country and back twice. Not plush but a great workhorse truck.

Favorite Features

4.0 motor, turning radius.

Suggested Improvements

Interior upgrades, leather availability, better radio.

Review

I purchased my truck online. I researched several brands, including the sibling Ford Ranger XL. I did not care for the Chevy or GMC/Colorado/Canyon. The Mazda had an excellent warranty and a $3000.00 cash back incentive. It works for me!

Favorite Features

48 month or 50,000 mile warranty. Cash back incentive!

Suggested Improvements

Increase engine size to 2.6 liters to compete with Toyota.

Review

The only options I purchased were automatic transmission and air. Everything else was standard right down to the rubber floor mats. This truck suits me perfectly. Reliable, good gas mileage and good looks for a work truck.

Favorite Features

50,000 mile warranty.

Suggested Improvements

Clock built into radio only displays time when you push a button. I would rather see the time as the default display than the radio station.

Review

I wouldn't own any othe truck. No one is putting more than 200 horse power in a compact 4d4 truck and offering a manual transmission and a tow package for less than $20,000. My 2001 is going strong after 650,000 miles with no major problems. Engines runs as good as new and has never been worked on.

Favorite Features

Power and comfort. I use my truck in my business and drive 3,000 miles per week, every week.

Suggested Improvements

Increase bed width between the wheel wells from 42" to 48". There is plenty of room to make the change, and with the 48" width, the bed could accomodate a full size pallet.

2004 Mazda B-Series Truck 2dr Cab Plus B3000 Dual Sport Rwd SB (3.0L 6cyl 5M)

Review

This is the 2nd Mazda truck I have owned and I am pleased with the overall quality, better warranty than the Ranger and Mazda dealers put Ford to shame in service. Fuel economy could be better and the 5 speed auto is alittle slow to respond but overall quality is awesome. Mazda only problem seems to be keeping dealers in stock on trucks.

Favorite Features

Body style of Dual Sport and firmness of ride. Seat comfort is better than most trucks out there. Fit and Finish is excellent as it is on all Mazda products,also have a Mazda 6

Suggested Improvements

Fuel economy is terrible and parts in stock at dealers could be better. Better access to rear cab on 2 door ext cab. Better choice of seat fabric

Review

Mine is a Model 4000 V-6; Bought this little Truck in Feb. 2003, wanted a Ford Ranger Edge but they didn't have the 2 rear drs. w/the 4.0 litre V- 6.However the looks are great! Some minor complaints are: 1. I avg. only 18.5 mpg., 2. There is no map light. 3. The seat fabric stains too easy. 4. The door ajar light came on when I turned left, or curved left. 5. I had to turn the front brake rotors already. Good items are: 1.Power Galor! 2. Fun to drive 3.My Golf Clubs fit perfectly in the rear of cab. 4.and Boy does it carry a load!

Favorite Features

1. Fun to drive. 2. Plenty of Power 3. Sits high; which is good for these parts of the country, it rains a bunch. 4.Grocery shopping is a breeze with the cargo extension.

Suggested Improvements

1. Turning radius needs help. 2.Desperately need a, or several map lights... 3. Interior fabric needs a protector sprayed on. 4. Finally the gas tank should be larger, or get the MPG up!! Thanks
