Car financing: the 2002 GMC Sonoma
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2002 GMC Sonoma for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 2002 GMC Sonoma, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
What to check on the Sonoma
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA has 57 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, structure and electrical system. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
The figures, translated
It uses the 2.2L 4-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 32 litres, from its 10.7 L/100 km rating. That works out to about $16.59 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,050 a year for 15,000 miles.
Size and space
A pickup is long and tall, so plan for parking and low garages.
A good match for
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Sonoma answers the big questions. Rent the Sonoma for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Drive the Sonoma on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.59 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $165.90 at our price setting.
Year and trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Next step
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
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 2002 GMC Sonoma from us first.
