The 2000 GMC Sonoma: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 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. This page puts the 2000 GMC Sonoma in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Sonoma
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA has 136 owner complaints on file, mostly about structure, service brakes and latches/locks/linkages. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Reading the spec sheet
The 2.2L 4-cylinder, paired with a 5-speed manual, drives it. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
It is rated 10.5 L/100 km combined: about 32 litres every 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $162.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,975 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
A pickup is long and tall, so plan for parking and low garages.
Who it is for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Rent it for a week first
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the Sonoma answers more than any brochure. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,975 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.28 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $162.80 at our price setting.
Which one to look for
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
