Thinking of buying the 1985 GMC C6?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1985 GMC C6 for sale by us right now. The 1985 GMC C6 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Before you sign for the C6

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Reading the spec sheet

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Size and space

As a car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

Try before you buy

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the C6 first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Year and trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

The cost of driving it

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Ready when you are

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1985 GMC C6 from us first.
