2008 Mazda Tribute Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers appreciate the 2008 Mazda Tribute for its good fuel economy, spacious interior, and decent handling. Many find it to be a reliable option with excellent visibility and comfort for daily driving. However, some owners noted that the engine power may not be sufficient, and there are reports of rust issues in certain conditions."
I like the visibility from the driver's seat, the short turning radius is great as well. Highway fuel economy is impressive. Traction and stability control is fantastic for winter driving- seems like summer all year round! Decent price as well!
May 20, 2009Drove the sister suv's for over 3 months, and really liked the new Tribute. Red/blue lighting much easier on the eyes than the Santa Fe, truck itself not as tinny as the Escape. For my budget Toyota or Honda was not an option esp. with no rebates offered on those at the time. Only thing I miss is the auto lights, which I may add. Gas mileage is fantastic and after coming from an Expedition, I see the gas station less than half of what I was!
January 8, 2008This is my wife's SUV and it gets great gas mileage for a big car (28mpg HW). So much room its great, and rides really nice. It only has an inline 4 engine, so the power isn't the best, but the gas mileage is worth it. Its not 4x4, but since its front wheel drive (which shocked me) it does very well in the snow. No maintenance issues with the SUV so far either, so that is great!
