Thinking of buying the 2011 Mazda Tribute?
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2011 Mazda Tribute for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is what to know about the 2011 Mazda Tribute before buying one.
Before you sign for the Tribute
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. NHTSA has 14 owner complaints on file, mostly about steering, fuel/propulsion system and air bags. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Specs, explained
It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
A combined rating of 7.4 L/100 km works out to about 22 litres per 300 km. Expect about $11.47 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.
The Tribute in everyday use
It offers the space of an SUV with the height that makes loading easy.
Who it is for
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If the Tribute is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
The cost of driving it
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Which one to look for
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Make a request
A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2011 Mazda Tribute from us first.
