The 2006 GMC Envoy: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2006 GMC Envoy for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2006 GMC Envoy, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the Envoy
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA has 603 owner complaints on file, mostly about fuel system, electrical system and exterior lighting. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
What the figures tell you
The 5.3L 8-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 14.3 L/100 km, means roughly 43 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $66.51 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,075 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who the Envoy suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
Living with the Envoy
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
A longer test drive
Rent the Envoy first, and buy only if it fits your life. Try the Envoy on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,075 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Ask us
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
