Mazda Tribute LX
| | Model of the car: | Mazda Tribute LX | | | General comments: | My Tribute has been everything I have expected and more. It is my first SUV, so of course I like the space and being up off of the road with great visibility. I had been skeptical after reading some of the reviews, but I have had no problems. The Tribute looks and runs great and has has a truly smooth, almost car-like ride. The premium sound system is great and I love the power moonroof. Despite what I have previously read, my first tank of gas got 25 mpg and that was mostly highway, but some city driving. Friends have all commented on how good the Tribute looks, and that it is "bigger than I expected". I had considered some of the more expensive SUVs like Explorer and Pathfinder, but I can confidently say that I saved some cash and sacrificed very little in return. I love my Tribute. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | I find the drivers seat a little uncomfortable, especially on longer trips. The usual; shifter position isn't great but got used to it in about a day. | | | Previous car: | Tested Nissan Xterra (uncomfortable), Jeep Cherokee (a box on wheels), Toyota RAV4 (too small). Looked at Honda CRV (ugly) and Ford Escape (cheaper looking interior than Tribute). |
