Also remember that a Mazda Tribute has the same motor as the Escape .

Presumably you'd want to upgrade to the revised oil pan/windage tray/baffle plate when swapping in the 3L- the (01+?) Escape/Tribute lump already comes with those, so a motor from either of those cars would have more reusable parts.

I don't *think* that the escape/tribute is equipped with the DMD- I'll know for sure tomorrow .
