Edmunds' Expert Review

  • Torquey V6, competitive tow ratings, rock-bottom price.
  • Low-buck interior, spotty build quality, poor resale value.

We know the value of an old trusty pickup, but in the Sonoma's case, it's just plain old.

2004 Highlights

The Sonoma is offered only as a 4x4 Crew Cab for 2004.

4.5 out of 5 stars
Nice little pickup
Hawk,12/18/2006
4dr Crew Cab SLS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
Just bought this truck and so far I'm very happy with it. Prefer the SLS model so I can customize to my own taste. Excellent ride and handling. Doesn't feel like a truck. No bouncing and swaying. Great acceleration, good pull up hill. Gas mileage is a little rough, but with some minor modifications, should be able to get into the 20's. Buy this truck. Better ride, handling and I expect better longevity than the competition. Great truck for the price. Excellent value.

bad truck,10/22/2004
4dr Crew Cab SLS 4WD SB (4.3L 6cyl 4A)
third door handle broke - twice. power window came unriveted from door mount. alternator went bad ,as a result had to reset radio at a cost of $80. tailgate bolts came loose on right and left side. tailgate cable broke. rear axke bearing passenger side went bad. windshield cracked twice no rocks sitiing still and heard a loud crack. auto transmision seems like it downshifts way to much like there is no power and it has to downshift to keep momentum on even the smallest of grades. recommend -don't buy

Should I lease or buy a 2004 GMC Sonoma?

Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
