Eastern NC - 2002 Mazda Truck
By Randall Tyndall - December 15 - 2:00 amLooks great, lot of compliments, most controls within easy reach. Cannot see under visor when in down position. Recommend extended cab for taller drivers. Difficult for entry/exit for shorter operators. Great mileage for truck - 23 - 25 average.

Hereditary transmission problems - 2002 Mazda Truck
By Cookieman - August 26 - 2:00 amThe vehicle was a delight to take in the rough, even though it was two-wheel drive, I could take it anywhere. It had a good ground clearance, and low rev torque. Its downside is its transmission. The Ranger series has always had problems with the transmission and when I bought this Mazda I thought they had cleared that problem. Not so. After 7K miles, it began to have trouble shifting in and out of second. It got to the point that I had to skip the gear. After the replacement if immediately took care of second but fourth was now the troublemaker.

Good Truck without Personality - 2002 Mazda Truck
By Bill - July 4 - 9:16 pmI purchased this truck new, trading in a 2000 GMC Sierra. I got a lot of truck for the money. The truck has been reliable except for odometer failure (warranty) and EGR flow sensor. The 4.0L engine and 5-speed auto transmission are a fine drivetrain. The main problem is that this truck just has no personality to distinguish it from the crowd. The tin-can sound of the doors closing doesnt help. I recently installed a Magnaflow catback exhaust which has given the truck a distinctive sound.

good truck - 2002 Mazda Truck
By johnboy - May 30 - 10:00 amI bought this used with little mileage on it. Got a great deal. So far, so good. It runs smooth and the mpg is acceptable. AC is great. I live where it gets very hot, so that is important. For the price, its great.

GoodLittle Truck - 2002 Mazda Truck
By bushdow - December 18 - 10:13 pmI purchased this truck September 2002. The gas mileage could be a little better (17 mpg) The truck is high for better road view. The engine could use a little more HP for merging traffic situations.

Good Buy for the money - 2002 Mazda Truck
By mutbreath - May 5 - 4:23 amBought this as an extra car for running errands and doing the "honeydos". Great truck for the money. It looks great and rides fine. I like the extended cab for safe storage & the extra seating for my kids.

By CMAN - June 27 - 2:00 amThe only item that I dont like is putting the automatic gear shift in park it feels like you have the force it in.

Think reliability ! - 2002 Mazda Truck
By Nick Tremblay - June 19 - 10:00 amIf you look a the quality/price ratio, the Mazda B-series gives you a higher quote compare to competitor. My criterias was reliabiliy, fun to drive, fair cost: the B-series was the one. Especially, the reliability...it is as reliable as a japanese truck ! Who cant say that !

02 Dual Sport - Good Small Truck - 2002 Mazda Truck
By reddualsport - October 13 - 10:00 amIve had this one for a little over a year and have not had any problems. The ride is bouncy but its a truck. Mine has the trailer towing package and Ive hauled a 18 foot boat (1800 lbs) for 300 miles on one trip and it performed better than I expectd.

Great incentives on good truck - 2002 Mazda Truck
By hsjrev - November 30 - 10:00 amI traded in my 92 Toyota 3.0L 4x4 on the B4000 dual sport auto. The little things like switches, turn stalk, armrests, etc. are nicer in the 10 year old Toyota, but the Ford 4.0L is much smoother and nicer than the old 3VZ-E. The Mazda smooths out the bumps much better but has more body lean in the turns and I go a little slower on the onramps. I think the Tacoma is a better truck, but with the S plan purchasing program from work, and Mazdas incentives, the price was just too good to pass up.
