Great Vehicle for Offroad and Vacations

We bought our 96 new in the spring of 97 at a considerable discount. (Few people seem to know that even vehicles which have never been sold, drop a lot in price when the new year starts.) Now with 25 years under its belt it has 165,000 miles and still looks good and runs well. About 5 years in, the AC needed a new condenser. At 20 years it needed work on the automatic levelling. I chose the expensive alternative of original equipment rather than a cheaper weld job which would have eliminated the auto leveling. That and a radiator 3 years later. We originally got this to take us off road in Anza Borrego, a large California state park set up for off road driving and camping. We have done more than 100 such camping trips. We are in no hurry to sell, anything new with this capability would probably be at least $50K new.

I recently changed from working within one mile of my home to working forty- five miles away. I had no hesitation in driving my 1996 MPV Allsport 4WD with 110,000 miles on it. As a matter of fact we had a sudden snowstorm here in Nashville with considerable snowfall and my four-wheel drive and my overdrive Off button worked absolutely perfectly. My husband has a Mazda B4000,1994 with 171,000 miles on it. We love them!

1993 Mazda MPV 3dr Minivan

I bought it 8 months ago and have already put as much into repairs as I paid for it. It had 146,000 then and over 153,000 now. Rebuilt the front end (steering), replaced 18 valve- lifters (3 per cylinder), had a minor transmission problem--and I can't part with it. Excellent build quality-- everything works! Great sound system. Drives like a breeze. Size is a plus.
Reliable, long lasting

No sports car but very long lasting and reliable, still going strong. Purchased this vehicle in 1993 at 6 months old; I was the second owner. It has a towing package and has pulled my loaded horse trailer and now pulls our 22 foot boat and trailer with ease, including up and down a steep ramp to the water.
It's Ok, but never again.

In the year I have owned this van I have replaced or rebuilt the transmission, starter motor, alternator, the turn signal module, and the battery. Engine leaks oil. It has left us stranded so many times, it is beyond understanding. It would not be so bad if once it was fixed it had some power but that is not the case. It ran fine when I bought it privately, but when I when I went to the dealer with questions I was regarded as the devil himself.
