Auto loans: the 2002 GMC Sonoma
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2002 GMC Sonoma; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Thinking about the 2002 GMC Sonoma? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
Recalls and complaints
NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Reading the spec sheet
The engine is the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 10.7 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 32 litres. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $49.77 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
The Sonoma in everyday use
As a pickup truck, it has an open bed for things that would never fit in a trunk.
Good uses for the Sonoma
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
Try the Sonoma on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Sonoma answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.59 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $165.90 at our price setting.
Year and trim
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. Within the 2002 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
