not sure what year exactly............but roughly...
tribute = escape
b series = ranger
navajo = explorer
probe, 626, mx6, millenia; all can have the same 2.5L if i'm not mistaken
volvo (owned by ford) also shares at least one of it's smaller car's chassis with the mazda 3 i believe

since the 2.5L millenia shares an engine with the probe (supposedly the probe engines were mazda made) the partnership would have had to be in place at least in 94/95, but i dunno if that was an agreement between the two or because ford owned 3x% stock in mazda at the time...

aand yes, i know there can be some big differences between the mazda and the ford, but for the most part they are very similar, just different badging...
