We chose to purchase the Mazda Tribute because we were able to negotiate an excellent price for a small SUV at the time. Initially, we were please with it, although the vehicle did seem very sluggish for it's size. But we attributed that the small engine. The vehicle did perform well but did not hold up as well as previous Mazdas we have owned.

I loved the small compact size of it. I also loved how reliable it is and decent on gas. What I disliked greatly is the pick up. Extremely slow.
