Buying the 2003 Dodge Intrepid

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2003 Dodge Intrepid for sale by us right now. The 2003 Dodge Intrepid for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Before you sign for the Intrepid

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Owners filed 106 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, power train and service brakes; have those parts checked.

What the figures tell you

The powertrain to know here is the 2.7L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 10.7 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 32 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $165.90. The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who the Intrepid suits

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Living with the Intrepid

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. In plain terms, its 510 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

Picking a year and a trim

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
