naughty or nice? obviously, you were nice!

Pros: it's a Mazda, providing frugal transportation with driving fun for many miles.

Cons: watch for rust on the rear wheel wells, rocker panels and other parts that are exposed to moisture, in particular if you live where roads are salted.

Keep fluids changed. Oil, transmission, coolant.
Keep the EGR system clean.
Take care of Check Engine ligths. Ask here for help if it occurs.

happy zoom-zoom to you!
