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.

Pros:
  • Roomy and comfortable interior, peppy V6 engine, drives more like a car than a truck.
Cons:
  • Weak base four-cylinder, mediocre fuel economy and driving range on V6 models, cheap-looking interior.

    The Tribute has been very comfortable and reliable. I have 2 dogs that ride in the back.....the plastic mat that came with it makes it very convenient for cleanup. I believe the review was wrong on the HPower....I think mine has 201, however, it goes fast enough....and quick enough for me.

    I love my new Tribute! It handles beautifully, has plenty of interior room, and is almost as much fun to drive as my miata!

  • Much to Like - 2004 Mazda Tribute
    By -

    I have approximately 20,000 miles on my 2003 Merlot ES. Its a great vehicle for the commute, as the traction in the winter is exceptional, and I average silightly over 21 M.P.G. I had one major problem at about 4,000 miles, when an engine leak developed. The engine was pulled to find a camshaft seal leaking. Mazda provided me with a loaner for the 4 days of the repair, and its been smooth sailing ever since. I like the looks much better than the Escape, which I briefly considered. The warranty was much better on the Mazda.

  • Reliable, Great Value, Strongly Recommen - 2004 Mazda Tribute
    By -

    Our 2004 ES 4WD has been a super truck, very reliable, reasonably good mpg (20) for a vehicle this big with this much power. Great value for the money as well, compared to the Grand Cherokee, Subaru, Explorer, etc I am really happy with this vehicle. Has great visibilty and handles very well. Great for people (like me) who need the height of an SUV but still want sporty handling.

  • (Sometimes) Ol Reliable - 2004 Mazda Tribute

    This car was my first purchase. We bought it from a family friend who had it as an extra and didnt use it much. The owner before it put 113,000 miles on it. As soon as we got it all the eletronics went out- radio, clock, lights, etc. $700 all the dealership. Over the past 2 1/2 years we have sunk over $2,000 in repairs. We actually got it out of the shop again today. Thankfully, repairs for this car tend to be on the lower end and its easy to find parts. Despite everything Im in love with this car. Its just the right size, I love driving it, and the gas mileage doesnt seem as horrible to me because I take short trips.

  • AWESOME SUV - 2004 Mazda Tribute

    WELL I FIRST WENT IN TO THE MAZDA DLRSHIP TO PURCHASE A MAZDA 6. CAME OUT W/ THE TRIBUTE. I DONT REGRET THE DECISION, I LOVE THIS SUV. ITS FUN TO DRIVE AND VERY ROOMY. CANT WAIT TO DRIVE TO SOUTH PADRE ISLAND DURING SPRING BREAK! BEING AND INSURAMCE AGENT MYSELF, I COULDNT BELIEVE HOW GOOD THE RATES ARE FOR INSURING THIS VEHICLE. MY HUSBAND AND I LOVE THIS VEHICLE!
