1988 Mazda B2200 SE review from North America
"A tough dependable pickup"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Smokes during warmup after about 150k miles.
Replaced both rear wheel seals.
Replaced the radiator around 150k miles.
Replaced clutch, bearing and pilot bearing @ 175K miles.
Other than normal maintenance, this is a great truck. If Mazda still made it, I would buy another one.
General comments?
This is a fantastic truck and I hope I can find a full size truck that will give me just as good service, since I have out grown it.
