1988 Mazda B2200 SE-5 Extended Cab review from North America
"Excellent truck, holds its resale value well, dependable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The truck sat dormant for 3 or 4 years before I bought it. I had to replace everything - rubber, hoses, belts, tires etc.
Had to replace the fuel pump because I ran out of gas twice in 2 weeks.
Carb is not the greatest, she still sputters some. Repair guy said "that's as good as it gets".
No smoke, gets about 20mpg, which stinks.
General comments?
Great little truck!! I would recommend an extended cab if possible. Bucket seats need to go all the way back to be comfortable. I'm 6 ft tall and the regular cab was way too small.
