Overview & Reviews

New body-colored door edge guards are available as an option, as is Homelink and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with a built-in compass.

• Roomy and comfortable interior, peppy V6 engine, drives more like a car than a truck.

• Weak base four-cylinder, mediocre fuel economy and driving range on V6 models, cheap-looking interior.

  Tribute to my Tribute - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By karen6036 - November 13 - 2:00 am

  Just turned 20,000 miles on my 2003 Tribute. Other than car washes, gas, oil changes, one wheel balancing, and insurance, I have spent no money on this vehicle. NO WARRANTEE repairs either. I would like better gas mileage, but I actually get 18.9 - 19.3 around town and 24.5 - 25.3 on strickly highway driving.

  GOT A LEMON - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By jnetk - November 13 - 2:00 am

  I bought a new 2004 Tribute LX on Thursday and had to be towed to the dealership the following Tuesday. With only 340 miles on it - it has to have a new transmission. The dealership had to call the engineers in California to find out what was wrong. Ive now been without it for 8 days. The dealership is real nice and is furnishing me a rental car but oooooh I wish I had my 1999 Ford Taurus back! (duh! I traded IT in) Theres no telling how long I will be without it. Im sick!!!

  ZOOM-ZOOM - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By NothinButNetJAG - October 13 - 10:00 am

  I own an ES-V6 model, and I would call this "The Sports Cars of SUVS." I think the Tribute out-classes the Ford Escape. The tribute has a more nicer interior than the Escape, as well as many more standard features. The Zoom- Zoom really shows. A peppy DOHC 24 valve 201 horsepower 3.0 liter V6 is fun to drive. The car is very comfortable and sporty. Great stereo on ES-V6 models. Handles more like a car than an SUV. Feels more capable and sportier than our $34,000 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Great off-road capability. I would recommend this SUV over the Ford Escape, Isuzu Rodeo, Honda CRV, and Honda Pilot. I love the Mazda Tribute!

  By Fyerstrtr - October 7 - 2:00 am

  Did alot of test driving and research in the SUV area, and I can honestly say that this is THE SUV to have for every reason! The reliability, handling, comfort, and design are impeccable! Arguably the best ever built!

  rides like a truck - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By smashingk - September 26 - 10:00 am

  steering went out at 9000 miles. Altogether performance isnt that great. The ride is very uncomfortable and when you lower the windows, you can hear loud buzzing noises.

  Zoom Zoom - a great vehicle to own - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By Casak - September 1 - 10:00 am

  I have owned many vehicles but this one stands taller then any other. I love the handeling and comfort that is delivered to me. Stylish, easy to use instruments make this the one for me. Gas mileage is about 20+ mpg around town with the V6. Of course this is with only 2000 miles on the engine. I expect that will get better when the engine loosens. The dealership also makes the difference to me and I have always had great service at Mazda in Orange Park Mazda.

  Dont overlook this one - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By DXTribowner - August 26 - 2:00 am

  I was reluctant to test drive a 4 banger, but I was surprised. My wife has a 4 banger camary and the Tribute will easily out run it. Mileage is only slightly less than the Cam, but is improving as the engine breaks in. This truck is not a missile, but easily gets the job done.

  Zoom Zoom - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By desertdog - July 3 - 10:00 am

  There are a lot of choices out there. After researching and driving, the Tribute takes the prize. This vehicle is fun to drive. It has great acceleration, brakes, handling, etc.... I do agree that the front seat should be more comfortable. It does have a lumbar adjustment which helps. The sound system is great. This thing is so much fun to drive I almost wish I bought a stick!

  Still Going Strong - 2004 Mazda Tribute
  By scooter - June 5 - 10:43 am

  I bought this Tribute new about two years ago. The styling is very nice, and it really is fun to drive. It has great acceleration, and excellent brakes. It is very easy to park and maneuver. The sound system is fantastic. The only negative I have experienced is the fuel economy. I only get about 17-18 city, and about 24-26 highway. Not bad, but for a vehicle this size it should be better. The build quality is very good. No rattles or other annoying noises after 17,000 miles. Overall it is a very good little SUV.
