Would a GMC Sierra single cab be a good truck for a teen?

[--smalltowngirl.]

I dont know the year model. but not brand new.
Its about 3,000$
I dont know the number of miles or anything..
But it its in good condition.
Everything runs.
A few scratches on the paint and in the bed.
And it has a great stereo in it.
Its for a teen girl.
She looooves this.
Should i get it?

Need more information to year and engine size for a $3000.00 Sierra. Just don't want you to spend $3000.00 on a Sierra and another $3000.00 to keep it going from worn parts like the drive train if it's a 4wd or 2wd.

Engine size to if it's a V6 or v8 and what year is the Sierra. $3000.00 is a good price if the Sierra is no older then 10 years with an average miles of 150,000 miles which is about the mileage for the fuel pump to fail and will need to be replaced soon after.

Personally, I think it is a great idea!

However, before you buy take a look on a few websites like Kijiji or autotrader and compare prices. I've owned three cars in my life, an 1987 Pontiac 6000, an 1985 Pontiac Fiero, and a 1997 Sierra. I don't regret buying any one of them. However, in the case of my Fiero I wish I had shopped around a but more; four days after buying the car I looked on autotrader and found a nicer and newer version for less.

Anytime you buy a used car you've got to be ready for some repair expenses but if you are ready to do the work on the car yourself then it is hard to go wrong.

Also from personal experience, if you decide to buy the vehicle, Change the oil, and all the filters (Including PCV and fuel filters). The guy selling you the car will say he kept on on the maintenance but don't believe him unless he has receipts to prove it.

Good luck
