Reviewing: 2008 Mazda Tribute i Sport 4WD

The Tribute was redone for the 2008 model year. I previously test drove a 2006 and the handling and performance were lacking. They have resolved these issues for sure!
They have redone the inside to perfection giving the Tirbute a classic outside with all the beauty one desires inside. There are a LOT of buttons on the center dash but you get used to it. THere's a built in ipod/mp3 jack which is a must to any new car buyer.
The outside keeps a classic small SUV look while adding new touches to distinguish model years. The 2008 has a more square look to it which makes the owner feel like its more rugged. Mazda is not stupid, people.
The room in this SUV is not lacking either. By day it serves as taxi to twins who require a LOT of big stuff. Car seats and doiuble strollers and bags and extras. This car by night easily carries 4 adults comfortabely.

Pros — All wheel drive does amazing in the snow/ice. The interior is HOT!
Cons — gas mileage (isnt too bad for an SUV but worse than I'd like)

Reviewing: 2008 Mazda Tribute i Touring

Drove 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!

Pros — Gas mileage, Sporty, nice ride even in the 4cyl, roomy interior, great sound system for standard, lots of seat options with power seat
Cons — None yet
