Not sure if any of the local parts stores carry them. Based on quality and price where's the best place to look?

Engine is a 3.0 . Truck is a 2wd. Thanks

Rock Auto always comes to mind first, but to avoid shipping time and expense, I bought my last couple of radiators (one Chevy, one Dodge) from Advance Auto Parts. I was satisfied with the quality, and surprised at the low price. It is not even worth getting a common radiator repaired any more. You can get a discount code from their online chat rep, order online, and then go pick up the part from your local store (if you have one) or get it shipped.
Also, I noticed that NPD has tons of Ford Ranger parts on clearance, and I am pretty sure your Mazda is mechanically identical to the same year Ranger. I didn't check to see if radiators are listed.

Champion brand ebay aluminum radiator. I've used a bunch, and they are pretty good stuff.
