Thinking of buying the Ford Courier?

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no Ford Courier for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the Ford Courier in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Courier

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

The figures, translated

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What to expect from the Courier

Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.

Drive it on your own roads

Try the Courier on your commute, then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Courier first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Year and trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. The years table on this page shows where the Courier changed. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. 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.

One more step

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Ford Courier from us first.

Buying the Ford Courier

Does CarmaCars sell the Ford Courier?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Ford Courier before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
