be specified either as standard-duty 1500 models or heavy-duty 2500 models. The Tahoe can tow up to 8,400 pounds, while the Suburban 2500
can tow up to 9,600 pounds when properly equipped.



A 320-horsepower, 5.3L V8 engine featuring E85 capability is the only available engine option for the Tahoe, although a 6.0L is combined
with an electric motor on hybrid models, making a combined 332 horsepower. The same 5.3L V8 is standard on 2WD and 4WD Suburban 1500
models and the heavy-duty Suburban 2500 comes equipped with a standard 6.0L V8, which makes 352 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque.

The 2010 Mazda Tribute is the smallest crossover SUV in the zoom-zoom family, but it’s big on utility. Under the Tribute’s hood is a 171-horsepower, 2.5-liter inline-four or an all-aluminum 240-horsepower, 3.0-liter V-6, both of which have variable cam technology and earn the Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle award. A hybrid version is also available. Drivetrain options include two- and all-wheel drive, and a five-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. The Tribute earned 18-22 mpg city and 23-28 mpg highway ratings from the EPA.

For added environmental friendliness, both engines are now Flex Fuel capable. Horsepower and fuel economy are competitive with the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4; of particular importance, the Honda CR-V does not offer a V-6, meaning the Tribute is a much higher-powered vehicle when properly equipped. Functionality is high with over 1,100 pounds of payload capacity and up to a 3,500-pound tow rating.
