As the entry-level truck in the B-Series lineup, the 2008 Mazda B2300 offers solid value for budget-conscious truck buyers looking for a solid, dependable compact pickup.

The B2300 is available exclusively as a RegularCab model, with the sole engine choice being a thrifty 2.3 liter DOHC inline four-cylinder engine making 143 horsepower and 154 lb.-ft. of torque, which supplies only adequate acceleration and average towing ability. Buyers looking for more serious power should look to the Mazda B4000 pickup and the additional towing ability it offers. There are two durable transmissions available – a standard 5-speed manual and a 5-speed electronic automatic with overdrive, offering smooth shifting and easy highway cruising.

Optional air conditioning provides relief in extreme temperatures. Available cruise control makes highway commuting a breeze, while the optional AM/FM/CD audio system with 4 speakers and audio input jack offer excellent sound quality.

Standard on all B2300 models are front passenger dual-stage airbags for enhanced passenger protection in a collision. The standard four-wheel anti-lock braking system provides superior stopping ability and helps to prevent wheel lockup during hard braking. What’s more, the standard Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alerts the driver to any significant drops in tire pressure.

As a basic compact pickup truck that doubles as a light-duty work truck, the 2008 Mazda B2300 excels, featuring a nice array of amenities and good fuel efficiency.
