Auto loans: the 1998 Chevrolet Tracker
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1998 Chevrolet Tracker for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 1998 Chevrolet Tracker, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Under the hood
The 1.6L 4-cylinder, paired with a 5-speed manual, drives it. It runs on regular gas. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
At 10.7 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 32 litres of fuel. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $16.59, and a 300 km weekend about $49.77. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
When the Tracker makes sense
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Space, size and seats
Being a van, it carries people and their bags without fuss.
Try before you buy
Rent the Tracker first, and buy only if it fits your life. Try the Tracker on your commute, then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Picking a year and a trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
