Buying the 1987 Jeep Comanche
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1987 Jeep Comanche for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 1987 Jeep Comanche? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. 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. Owners filed 5 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, service brakes and steering; have those parts checked.
Under the hood
Power comes from the 2.1L 4-cylinder turbo, driving through a 5-speed manual. It runs on diesel, sold at most highway stations. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Its combined rating is 9.4 L/100 km, which means roughly 28 litres for 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $145.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the Comanche
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
The Comanche in everyday use
Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.
Rent it for a week first
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. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Narrowing it down
Within the 1987 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. 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.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Want a price?
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
