1984 Mazda B2000 Reg. cab, long box. review from North America
"Rusty-but-trusty."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It was a complete rust-bucket.
Even the gas tank rusted through.
The shifter was too close to the seat.
The taillight didn't want to stay fixed.
Wipers ceased to operate.
General comments?
It handled and accelerated well for a 4-cylinder.
Comfortable bench seat.
8-foot bed.
Simple dash.
There was never a problem with the engine.
It always started.
Not bad for the first truck I ever owned. I've had more trouble with my F-150.
