2006 Mazda B3000

2006 Mazda B3000 Overview

Introduction

The Mazda B3000 is Mazda's entry-level pickup truck. As a cousin of the ford Ranger, the B3000 shares similar design cues but differs under the hood and in options available.

The B3000 is available as a Cab Plus 4-door, a Cab Plus 4-door Dual Sport and a regular-cab Dual Sport. Dual Sport models have the look of a four wheel drive truck with a monochrome exterior, fender flares, and raised suspension. Cab Plus 4-door editions feature back doors on rear hinges that allow easier entry for rear passengers and equipment. It comes powered with a 148-hp, 3.0-liter V-6 engine matted to either a five manual with overdrive or a five speed automatic with overdrive that delivers between 17 to 18 city miles per gallon and 23 highway miles per gallon. Options include cruise control, a leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel and a bedliner.

Changes are insignificant for 2006, as the entire B-series truck line was redesigned in 2005.
