Well, when I decided to buy a new vehicle, I knew I wanted a small suv/crossover. I had great experience with the Mazda brand; my first car was a Mazda. So, when I saw a Mazda Tribute for sale in my price range, I knew it was worth taking a look at. I think in general Mazda makes great-looking cars. The size was perfect for my family size (family of three). All in all, I think this vehicle is an okay local commuter car; it will get you and your family where you need to go, with plenty of storage space. However, you will have to keep in mind the gas mileage is not all the good for long hauls nor are the seating comfort ability.

This really is the best truck that I have ever owned. If Mazda had continued the Tribute model, I would purchase another one in a heartbeat. I purchased my Mazda Tribute used, and other than a factory recall (which was fixed for free) I have had no mechanical issues with the truck whatsoever. I feel completely safe, no matter what the weather or road conditions are. Being a parent, safety and reliability are always my number one concern when purchasing a vehicle. My daughter's car seat fit easily and securely in the middle of the back seat, with plenty of room on either side for passengers with ample legroom. When I purchased my Mazda, I was working in an industry where I would be required to be there whether there was an inch of snow or 3 feet of snow, and my Mazda never let me down. I have driven my truck through rain, snow, and sleet and never have had any issues. I felt safe and secure through the entire ride. I would recommend the Mazda Tribute to anyone looking for a safe, reliable SUV.
