My dad bought this truck used 9 yrs ago as light general duty truck. It was the most reliable vehicle we ever owned. It became my first car in 09 when i was 16. In 9 years the only problems were a bad ignition and leaking roof, that's it! The thing was tougher than any truck Ive ever seen, a bumpy gravel road at 60 mph was a walk in the park. I cant believe a truck could get 24 mpg and it may not have much power but that's why its light duty. The 5 spd manual had perfect gear ratios. My truck was mazda ZOOM ZOOM fast but not really haha, topped out at 80. it was eventually rear ended by a truck going 70 mph but i was okay, it got annihilated but saved my life.

The 4.0L V6 provides plenty of starting, passing, and pulling power. City gas mileage with the A/C on is miserable, ~15mpg. Without cargo, this truck is sometimes embarassing to drive on hilly roads (like Seattle) in the rain, as the rearend is very light. I end up using the 4WD to make turns on hills and quick moves into traffic from side streets. Reliability has been good, at 59,000 miles I've only had one problem, minor at first, that turned worse because of lack of interest from the original dealer. A different dealer immediately addressed the problem (then big) and did a warranty repair. All things considered, this is a good vehicle.

I am a 16 year old, and this 2009 Christmas I got this truck. It is so nice, the interior is amazing! So i get it and my steering wheel buttons are missing, I don't mind at all. I can live with that. Anybody know where I can get those? Lets get to the point. I'm 16 I take the truck out a day later and wreck it! I shattered the factory mazda rim it came with! Where can I find this rim?! I need new bumpers and quarter panels! If anybody can help me with this I really would appreciate it! This truck is amazing and super nice! I would recommend it to the pope!

Purchased new by e-mail after visiting dealership and not able to arrive at price. Sales manager called back and asked price I was willing to spend. Told him my what I was willing to pay, he called back with vehicle meeting my specs. at my price. Enjoy driving vehicle, drive 65/70 miles per day. Would have enjoyed the bigger engine, but couldn't find in TL package at that time. Great gas mileage (18-19 with auto and air). Little bumpy on ride due to big (16" tires @ 35 psi), but bareable. No service problems to date (3½ yrs). New tires at 55M - replaced Firesonte AT's

An awesome truck, I can't say enough! Fun to drive, reliable and a good looking. I bought the truck new 10 years ago and at 160,000 miles it's still going strong. When I go to sell it, someone will be getting a great deal. Besides normal maintenance, oil changes and brakes I cannot complain. Rear wheel drive can present some problems during inclement conditions. For the money the Mazda truck is a great value and I would buy another in a heartbeat, although I wish they would update their body style (not much has changed within the past 10 years).
