Buying the 2017 GMC Sierra
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2017 GMC Sierra 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. The 2017 GMC Sierra for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
NHTSA lists 11 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
What the specs mean
Its powertrain is the 5.3L 8-cylinder hybrid with rear-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 11.8 L/100 km, means roughly 35 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $182.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
The Sierra in everyday use
A pickup is long and tall, so plan for parking and low garages.
When the Sierra makes sense
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Sierra for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Year and trim
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. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
