Completely agree with you about the Mazda B2200! Just got my 1st mini truck, 1990 B2200, red short single, I’m in love with this truck!! And it’s an automatic and I couldn’t be happier!!! Only 150k miles!!
It's a awesome mini truck. I owned an 1986 same red color with the huge Mazda lettering imprinted on the tailgare (not a sticker or badge) coolest tailgate ever, lowered on Pepboys lowering blocks and Pepboys sound system..so cheesy and cool, love remembering those days I just graduated high school. If I find another I would buy it today in 2019
Great truck for a student like I was, when I had one. Things I did: - added a tach - had a sunroof added (easy, with the single layer roof) - proper sound system - new wheels Should have done: -weber carb -sliding rear window
You should drive an extra cab instead they actually drive like a car and have a Miata transmission just a different 5th gear ratio inside the transmission, and the extra cabs have different gear ratio in the rear differential, I also own an extra cab b2200 great trucks really fun too drive
I have a Mazda B2200 and it is not lacking power, people now days have to have huge engines in cars and I think it's stupid and a wast. My B2200 runs 70mph down the highway, I have pulled trailers (small trailers), hauled lots of lumber and even drove 3 HOURS home with 1100lbs of seed wheat in the back and It never once lacked power. I hate to see this pickup when your done with it, it's hard to find them in that good of condition
Good guess. That 1991 Mazda B2200, had the same manual transmission as the Rx-7 and Miata. A superb shifter. In stock form, it is probably the smoothest, sportiest shifter, on _any_ truck. Although the transmission as a whole, most likely would not outlast a Toyota pickup transmission. And people that call those Mazda trucks, "JDM Rangers" are way off. Pre-1994, the Mazda B2000, B2200, and B2600i were unique Mazda creations. Special japanese trucks. However, Mazda trucks after 1993, starting with the Mazda B2300 and B3000, (i think), were the same as a Ford Ranger, (yuck).
@@coreymolyneaux8677 No I don't, but your question will probably be answered by people with Miatas and Rx7's, who modded their engines, and kept the stock transmission.
I hate somebody took the factory rims off of it. I have a 1989 with 105,000 on it all original. The only bad thing about mine is the previous owner took out the factory radio and speakers but at least I got the factory radio with it just not in it.
How are these in the winter? I’m looking to get a cheap truck for the winter because I don’t think my Miata is going to hold up well in a foot of snow lol
My dad owns this Just so you know I'm 12 Anyways I've known it since I was 6 when my dad went to collect it from a mechanic It was a chassis only before that When he tuned it to his liking it ran like a dream Was able to drive for 4-5 years before it really broke down The only thing my dad told me was broken was the spark plugs 😂 But doesn't want to fix it until it has a use I do miss it but I understand
Learned to drive a manual in one of those, starter never worked, always had to push it off in parking lots or parked on a hill. Motor finally went kaput not long after it stopped smoking and leaking oil.
I had an '87 of the same thing but automatic. Hated that f'n thing. Constant issues with it. I remember the EGR valve clogging up every 20k miles. I'd burn it if I ever saw it again.
Ive been doing reviews on 80s and early 90s mini trucks and it seems the ranger is the best overall for power, options, durability, bigger cabin option and side step bed ford ranget for the win 2nd would b old s-10 the newer 1s hav ugly face
Totally not Gingium's new drift car lmao
IMNOTA Exactly what I was thinking.
Literally what I was about to type
It is, look at his twitter, red and has the same interior as the b2200
Sarcasm bro
xStr8UPDoPex I’m not dumb, I knew that- just reaffirming your comment
Gingium’s new build he wouldn’t tell us about
Zac Locke he did tell us in an earlier video but he was vague in the last one. But now we know he has one
I had one with 1200 watt sound system, What a fun little truck one of my best vehicles I've owned! Brings back good memories. Thanks for the video.
I learned to drive in this truck. Parents had one growing up as our second vehicle and weekend workhorse. It was pretty awesome.
I had one of these years ago…and it was a damn good truck! I kinda miss it sometimes 👍
Gamer truck 😎
Unexpected cameo
Last of the mini trucks sold in the USA that were built & designed by Mazda. I’m a big fan of these trucks.
My mazda got hung in my own driveway...
Super reliable trucks. I had a 1992 B2200 5MT that had 450,000km's on it.
My grandpa bought one new, then sold it to my dad, then I got to drive it on the farm. Over 1,000,000 kms on the odometer
Hmm, wonder who submitted this car?
Most loyal truck. If u find a clean one keep it. It will run forever if taken care of. I will never get rid of my truck ♡♡♡

My first car was an ‘84 B2000, and it was GREAT! I wouldn’t mind getting another one someday.
Did they have 4wd for that gen b2200 and are all the b2200s diesel?
84 was the first year that the Mazda b series was made by Ford

Things I did:

- had a sunroof added (easy, with the single layer roof)
- proper sound system
- new wheels
Should have done:
-weber carb
-sliding rear window
When I first came to the U.S in '91, this was my first vehicle. Loved it.
This generation of b-series shares zero components with the ranger, but the next gen was just a rebadged ranger

I have doubt in my mind that that’s Gingiums drift truck
Captain Origami it looks way to nice to drift though

Some of these trucks actually came with first gen rx7 3 spoke steering wheel
Juan Bugallo mine did and gage cluster
Mine has it as well as a tachometer.
Mine was a SE-5 version, I had the rx-7 steering wheel, the tachometer and the so badly designed cup holder inside the glove box
There is a dude with one of those near me that he chopped off the roof, panted it purple with a bunch of flake, then turned it into a lowrider
I also have a blown up 2300 with no roof, bed, fenders, or doors.... Was the best beater car ever #RipMethMobile
Blake Ate My Console that sounds wild😂 do you have any pictures?
Zack always spoils Caleb's plans lmao
The DBZ_KING7 just like the Dyno video lol
"California car" eh? Gingium DOES always complain about his rusty cars
Is this the new drift truck?
Nikolai Chekov yup
my dad has a b2200
Great mini truck. Looks awesome.
Well i wonder who owns this and is going to drift it. Hmmm...
Gingium's new drift project! "It's going to sound very different" Sooo maybe a rotary swap?
Димитър Запрянов he was talking about a 1jz
Димитър Запрянов yeah 1jz
rick van stiphout no a 1UZ
He said a 1uz

Do you have a rough idea of what this trans would hold for power ? I. TDI swapping mine and am planning to use the stock trans
@@coreymolyneaux8677 No I don't, but your question will probably be answered by people with Miatas and Rx7's, who modded their engines, and kept the stock transmission.
So the US only got rated to 1600lbs? Amazed it's so little, when here in Europe they where rated to carry 2500lbs (About 1100kg).
i have one chilling in the house since my mama moved, i have to learn how to drive to take it out and around, is kinda beaten up but a lovely machine
I’m pro-Mazda also and okay with Fazda. This verses an early 90s Frontier would be a tough choice when buying.
I hate somebody took the factory rims off of it. I have a 1989 with 105,000 on it all original. The only bad thing about mine is the previous owner took out the factory radio and speakers but at least I got the factory radio with it just not in it.
I’m pretty sure it has the factory wheels on it. They’re just painted black.
Bought a 93 b2600i bad motor n trans wat can I swap in
Nice video 😀
How are these in the winter? I’m looking to get a cheap truck for the winter because I don’t think my Miata is going to hold up well in a foot of snow lol
Will Ferland I believe they are rear wheel drive and have low ground clearance so not good
Better than a Miata tho
All small trucks are going to be about the same. Best you can ask for in snow is 4x4.
Calebs new drift truck project 😁😁
they look cool stanced, d21 is cooler tho
THEONE2F3AR I HATE the Nissan trucks. Damn they're ugly lol. But to each their own I guess
@@astrum_nauta their ugly in their own way. It’s like how people think pugs are cute
Great review
I have a 93 b2600i and it has a tachometer, it looks like the rx7 picture you showed.
the gearbox is some sort of derivitive of the mx5 gearbox. ive seen people do short shifter kits from an mx5 into b series mazdas. chur
91s with carb options have tac. Not sure why they didnt throw it in the other
Maybe its the SE-5 submodel that has a tac
Great video
Is this truck for sale?
A golden retriever on 4 wheels 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm not so sure the B2200 was jointly developed with Ford. The B4000 however was 100% ford.
@Damiliola Akanni It wasn’t jointly developed with Ford. The B2300, B2500, B3000 & B4000 were all rebadged Ford Ranger’s.
My dad owns this
Just so you know I'm 12
Anyways I've known it since I was 6 when my dad went to collect it from a mechanic
It was a chassis only before that
When he tuned it to his liking it ran like a dream
Was able to drive for 4-5 years before it really broke down
The only thing my dad told me was broken was the spark plugs 😂
But doesn't want to fix it until it has a use
I do miss it but I understand
Ive driven past Calebs shop and he is driving in his area so...

Does it not have a/c?

The R2 diesel version does a smokes 'em on gravel in second gear at 5k rpm.
My bois new project!!!
Is the truck for sale ?

This truck totally gives me Tremors vibes
Hmmmm wonder who owns it....
Is that Caleb's truck lol?

Sounds good to me!

Snows in cali *
LEGIT 90% OF THE COMMENTS ARE ON GINGIUM'S DRIFT TRUCK
lmao you clicked... it is def not gingiums drift truck
Koala Fang *sarcastic tone* oh no. There’s no way it’s his new build 😂
It even was in his garage on his track vid with the rallyata
rev matching without a tach.. Ok, buddy
Is there anybody who didn't come here because of gingium's 0:30 sneak peak? hahahaa
Hola
Mexico
Sepallo
I really hope this is not gingium's next drift project it'd be awesome I just don't want to see him drift a truck
dale fitch he spoke about it in the podcast he did with Zack, I’m pretty sure he said he’s gonna rotary swap it as well
dale fitch it is. He’s talked about it in videos. And Jack Simmonds he’s gonna 1uz swap it
Paul Gauthier ah ok my mistake
I own one and I love it its just that its rotten and rusty underneath but after all I love my baby
2jz truck!
tubejorrit it’s Gingium’s and he said he is gonna 1uz swap it.
You seriously can't do this and think that we won't know it's Gingiums new drift truck lol
