What owners say
"Owners generally appreciate the 2005 Mazda Tribute for its comfort, reliability, and ample space. Many drivers liked how well it handles and its ability to tow, making it versatile for various needs. However, some were frustrated with the gas mileage and issues related to rust and maintenance challenges."
No major repairs ever needed on our Mazda Tribute. 2005 Mazda Tribute was great for pulling a trailer of ATV's. Fits five people. Original car mats still in vehicle. Back set folds down easily to hull larger items. It has two net areas in back to store items. It has a jack I have never needed to use in the back right of trunk area. You just turn the two round knobs to open it up.
April 22, 2014Great amount of rear space for all dogs, decent gas mileage (because it's a compact suv, but still), decent pep at low end for an i4
March 26, 2008Started looking at these because 2 of my sisters drive Ford Escapes. This is more refined than the Escape, with a better warranty. It's a little noisy, but most vehicles in this price range are. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase.

January 24, 2008Overall an excellent choice for a vehicle especially if family and safety are concerned, the drive is nice and the car feels very stable, even when winds pick up driving in inter or highway. Looks are awesome and proportions are nice, good room inside without taking too much space outside.
April 6, 2012had this tribute for 7 years now and still runs strong. Great milage and handling. Easy for home mechanic to maintain. Alittle upset that the trans filter can not be changed without taking tranny apart. Rust forming on under side though is also annoying.
October 4, 2012The Mazda Tribute is fun to drive and has been a reliable travel partner as well as an every day commuter. From hauling the kids to hauling cargo it has proven more than sufficient. Also a great tailgate companion for any occasion!
July 24, 2014The car is very comfortable and very versitile. I use mine more as a pick up truck, i intalled a hitch and tow a small trailer with it all the time. I load it down too, the car pulls it fine and handles well. The gas mileage ticks me off though, i know it's a V6 but the reviews i read before i bought it all seem to have gotten a lot better gas mileage than i get.
