Thinking of buying the 2011 Mazda Tribute?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2011 Mazda Tribute; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 2011 Mazda Tribute? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
A buyer's checks
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 14 complaints with NHTSA, most often about steering, fuel/propulsion system and air bags; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the figures tell you
The 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Its combined rating is 7.4 L/100 km, which means roughly 22 litres for 300 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $34.41 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the Tribute
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Practical details
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the Tribute for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Tribute answers the big questions. A week with the Tribute answers more than any brochure.
Which one to look for
Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
What it costs to run
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.47 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $114.70 at our price setting.
