Mazda is always my interesting Japanese car. When I was a child in Chonburi Province and I rode Mazda passenger cars many times. Mazda Familia, the little pick-up truck that had been modified to the passenger car (the locals called it : 2-row taxi). Its soft suspension system which was gliding on the hard dirty country roads of Sri Racha District, 50 years ago, was so reliability. And when I had to go to Chantaburi Province in 1969, seeking for my job, I depended on its local on demand taxi car, Mazda Familia, I paid for any baht per trip, acceptable price. Well, I was impressed with Mazda cars especially its smooth suspension.

I was familiar with it since my childhood at Chonburi.
It was famous for its toughness and reliability (my opinion)

Fourty years ago I was impressed by Nissan Trucks. I liked its appearance and design. Today although the brand is not my interest anymore but I still look at its cars. Nissan Navara Pick-up is one of those cars on the roads that I prefer to see.  

In Japanese automakers we believe!
