1988 Mazda B2000 review from North America
"The toughest little truck I've ever seen."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I replaced the engine at 263,000 miles. It still ran great, but was burning oil. I used to pull a trailer which weighed more than the truck.
General comments?
The truck is extremely reliable and has always started on the first turn of the key. I just love it! Still using the original radiator, transmission, and believe it or not, the rear brake drums.
