Used GMC Envoy for Sale

We were driving a 91 Ford Ranger with 369,000 miles on it when we purchased our '98 GMC Envoy 6 years ago. We were open to pretty much any make/model, but living in the mountains, preferred a 4wd. We were giving up for the day when we happened past a used car lot, we saw the Envoy & another vehicle we both liked. So we wheeled in & looked at it. When I told our son who is a mechanic about the car & the price he said to buy it. It has been one of the best vehicles I have ever owned! The 4wd is indispensable, it has heated seats (which I adore in the winter or when my back hurts), it is a 6 cylinder, thus the gas mileage is better & to top it off, it has a BOSE stereo system that just blows everyone else away. That is a trademark of the GMC's, most all their SUV's have the BOSE system. It has a huge cargo area, for a smaller SUV; it also has a cargo cover so nobody can look in & see what you are carrying in the back of your vehicle . I find this to be a plus when doing things such as Christmas shopping or on a road trip. Over the years we have put a few thousand dollars in it to bring it back up to snuff. This vehicle has nearly 200,000 miles on it as we speak & I am in no way thinking about getting rid of it.

We bought the 2005 GMC used in 2011. We had problems with it from the beginning, fuel gage not working, many electrical problems, it seemed like there was always something which needed to be fixed. Once we got it going, something else would break on it. Thankfully, my husband can fix cars as he was always working on this one. We finally got it in a reliable driving state in 2013. Just recently, the rack and pinion went, so that's on the future list. GREAT car in the winter though! Especially for a Florida girl and her first winter in Maine, learning how to drive in snow this car helped in confidence.

In general, I love the truck! It is very nice looking. It's a rich burgundy color with lots of chrome accents. The paint is so pretty that it still looks new and waxed when it is washed! It has running boards and matching visors on the windows. Inside it's all charcoal gray so it doesn't show the least bit of dirt. It drives very well and we have not had to put it in the shop yet for maintenance. The main issue I have with the truck would be the poor gas mileage. It is a gas guzzler! It does have a few blind spots that one must be careful about as well. If I were to purchase another Envoy I would get an XL so that the interior would have the leather and other extras. It's comfortable although I might like a third row. I also think it would be nice if the 2nd row seats could lay completely flat. I also would like separate control of heat and air from the back seat. I like the elevation of the truck and the tinted windows are wonderful against the Georgia sun! It's fun to drive.
