Looking at replacing a 2001 S-10


Found a 2007 Mazda B3000 with 90K
V6 Vulcan, extended cab, RWD

I believe its the same as a Ford Ranger.

Looks well taken care of.

Anything I should look closer at?

Thanks for any advice.

Yes. Not for heavy duty work, but as a "grocery-getter" that can haul an occasional bulky item, it is just fine.

A good, easy-to-service engine, much better than the 4.0 SOHC, unless the cooling system hasn't been maintained and it has overheated. Then the head(s) crack before the gasket blows.

In Illinois? Underneath it for frame rust.

I have a 2000 B4000 with 270,000 miles, still driving it daily.

Thats not to say It hasn't needed repairs.
Ball Joints
Water Pump
Crankcase pulley sensor
And now driver's side door hinge repair.
Plus couple other repairs I've done.

I have gotten my money's worth from this Mazda.

Is the Mazda you are looking at have overdrive?

I have an '07 Ranger which is the same vehicle mechanically with 150K and it has been rock solid. My wife refuses to talk about selling it so be forewarned!
