Buying the 1986 GMC Pickup
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1986 GMC Pickup; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 1986 GMC Pickup? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Owners filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, fuel system and service brakes; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
The numbers in plain words
The engine is the 2.5L 4-cylinder, with all-wheel drive and a 4-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
By the EPA's combined rating of 11.2 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 34 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $52.08 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Living with the Pickup
It is built for loads that would never fit in a trunk.
A longer test drive
Rent the Pickup first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent the Pickup for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the Pickup for a week and see how it fits your life.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Money matters
The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $17.36 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
