I think I may have made a thread a while back but I have since stopped posting. That was probably back in september when I was driving my silver b2000 that I totaled. Now I drive a 83 b2200 diesel. Pics bellow:

now I drive this beast, sadly I don't have any recent pics of it (I got into another accident )

Bummer, how bad was the accident?

Not that bad, but my drivers quater panels is screwed up along with my core support. I've been driving it for a bout a month after the accident, but the real problem is trying to find parts for this old of a mazda! Haven't had time to find the parts or repair it yet.

I've always been curious about the diesel, what is your MPG like?

The hippie we bought it from claimed to get 40 MPG running B100 (straight biodiesel), but we haven't gone through a full tank yet. My dad filled up the tank a couple of weeks before I graduated high school a few months ago, but I still have a 1/4 of a tank left. So far 300+ miles on a single tank of diesel, the tank is probably 10 or 12 gallons, so 30-40 MPG seems to be a good estimate

Thats a cool truck and 30-40 mpg wow thats even better.

Is it weird that I'm jealous of the old school mazda? Id love to have a deisel pre. Very cool. Welcome man

Just took a pic of the truck post-accident

We swapped over the rims and tires from the 86, still not quite sure if I like the look

very nice truck.
