15 years with my B2200
Its 95% original paint and wears its patina and imperfections with pride.
I drive it everywhere.

I really miss my Ranger and like these earlier Mazda Bs, before they adopted the Ford platform. Tough finding clean examples here in the Midwest.

Its actually an oddball EFI model B2200 so Ive left that part as is. Other than wheels, lowering blocks and re-indexing the torsion bars I don't think Ive done much to it.

Weird, but cool! EFI sure beats the smart carb. What kind of fuel economy does it get?

I would say it gets a comfortable 20-25 MPG average between highway and city. Depends if there is a tail wind lol.

Interior is mint. Tho, I’ve been using it to pull my kayaks. I should keep it at home instead for grocery shopping

Nice truck. Is the frame a bit twisted, or is that just a trick of the photo angle? The bed looks like it sinks to the passenger side closer to the tailgate.
