Thinking of buying the 2004 GMC Sierra?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2004 GMC Sierra; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. The 2004 GMC Sierra for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Recalls and complaints
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 9 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
Engine and fuel
The 5.3L 8-cylinder hybrid does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 13.8 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 41 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $21.39 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$3,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
A good match for
It suits moving day, renovation runs and anything that needs an open bed. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Space, size and seats
Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.
Drive it on your own roads
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Narrowing it down
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
What it costs to run
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. The EPA estimates US$3,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
