Car financing: the 2001 GMC Yukon
CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2001 GMC Yukon before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. The 2001 GMC Yukon for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Recalls and complaints
NHTSA has 421 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, parking brake and tires. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The figures, translated
Its 4.8L 8-cylinder drives through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The combined figure, 15.7 L/100 km, means roughly 47 litres for 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $243.40 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What to expect from the Yukon
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
When the Yukon makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A test week in the Yukon tells you more than any review. A week with the Yukon answers more than any brochure.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$4,450 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $24.34 in fuel.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
