2008 Mazda Tribute OWNER RATINGS & REVIEWS

Comfortable, fuel efficient
I purchased this vehicle used. I loved the features it had, which included a sunroof, leather interior, and aux connection. I use this vehicle to travel to and from work, but we also use it to go on family trips. It is very spacious for a smaller SUV, with seating for 5 people, and a large storage area in the back. The vehicle itself drives smoothly, and is fairly fuel efficient. I typically can get 24 mpg with it. These are mostly highway/interstate miles.

Great reliable car.
This is a great basic SUV. It's the perfect size for driving in urban environments and still being able to transport lots of people or things.
It seats a total of five people, although it may be tight (back seats are a bench). The driver and front passenger seat areas are very roomy, but could be a bit farther apart. I find I often bump elbows with a passenger in the front seat.
The cargo space is big enough for an SUV - if you needed more you would need a van or truck. The back seats easily fold down to be flat with the trunk area.
It drives pretty well, but it can be bumpy at times. My favorite thing about this car is the low maintenance. I only need to get oil changes every 7,000 miles, and I've had the car for almost two years and haven't had any major repairs needed. I bought it at about 80,000 miles and it's well over 100,000 now.
The dashboard in front of the seats is a weird rubbery material that scratches easily, but I don't mind cosmetic damages. Overall this has been a great value for the price I've paid.

Ups and downs
I've had some ups and downs with this vehicle. It's been the most reliable I've driven so far, but at the same time, it's also had some performance issues. It's also a great SUV for carrying groceries and larger pieces of furniture. You don't have to worry about objects flying away. For longer pieces that normally don't fit, you can also open the window hatch for greater expansion.
