Car financing: the 2004 Nissan Quest
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2004 Nissan Quest for sale by us right now. 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 2004 Nissan Quest in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Quest
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. NHTSA has 445 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, power train and structure. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Engine and fuel
The engine is the 3.5L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 12.4 L/100 km, means roughly 37 litres for 300 km. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $57.66 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the Quest
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits groups, airport runs with luggage and family trips.
Practical details
It is the kind of vehicle that makes a family trip calmer.
A longer test drive
Drive the Quest on your commute before you commit to it. Try the Quest on your commute, then decide. Rent the Quest for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Choosing the right one
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. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.22 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
