The 2002 GMC Sierra: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2002 GMC Sierra; 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. Before you buy the 2002 GMC Sierra, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the Sierra
NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. NHTSA has 591 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, engine and engine cooling and power train. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Engine and fuel
The engine is the 4.3L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Expect about 44 litres for every 300 km, going by its 14.7 L/100 km combined rating. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $68.37 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
The Sierra in everyday use
As a pickup truck, it has an open bed for things that would never fit in a trunk.
Who it is for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
A longer test drive
Rent the Sierra for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent the Sierra first, and buy only if it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $227.90 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$4,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Picking a year and a trim
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. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
