1993 Mazda B2200 review from North America
"Like a trusty old dog"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Smokes on start-up.
General comments?
Great reliable no-frills truck. This baby never let me down. Engine still ran great after 462,000 kms. Smoked on start-up but no other problems.
Would still be driving it if the chassis hadn't rusted after these awful Newfoundland winters.
The truck is still being used to cart welding tanks around the scrap yard I turned it in to. Have a 2008 Mazda b4000 now. I realize it's a Ford Ranger. Too bad Mazda still doesn't make its own trucks in North America. Better than any Toyota.
