"Very good truck. Got me hooked on Mazda for life"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Engine blew 190,000 miles.

Leaking rear main seal 180,000.

General comments?

I am the only thing that has gone wrong with this car. I got it in mint condition and me, being a teen, had to mess it up. I rolled the thing and I only came out with a scratch. We pulled it out with a tractor and it started and ran with no mechanical damage to the truck. You couldn't ask for a better car. the clutch withstood three people learning to drive it and it still is tight. The engine blew, but it only cost me (not my parents) $300 to get it running again. I would put $15 in gas in the thing and it would take me 60 miles a day to school and back and still have some left for the weekend.

It has great acceleration due to my modifications and handles extreamly well for a light rear end truck.

Have raced and beat Civics, Taurus, other trucks and a Thunderbird, came close to beating 5.0 Mustang, but I stopped for the stop light.

Hi, I'm wondering what kind of engine mods you have done? I want to start doing some to my truck. Thanks.
