Best Truck Ever

My 2017 GMC CANYON SLT 4x4 was the best truck I ever owned. Absolutely no problems with it and it drove on long trips with great comfort and decent gas mileage. Someone will have a great truck when they buy this one.

Features are far better than competitors vehicles. v6 has enough guts to get moving and hauling loads.

Great Purchase so Far

Purchased October, 2015, 20k miles. 3 recalls, oil changes and tire rotations, have been my only trips to the dealer. My first truck, surprisingly comfortable and tows my 2,000lb boat much better than my SUV. Besides the funky shifting of the transmission when accelerating from 20-30MPH it has been a super vehicle. I AVG 22MPG on my work commute, and have gotten 28MPG @ 60 MPH cruising the coast.

leaks water into cab, one recall after another , left up to dealer take truck apart and dry out which isn't easy after getting truck back from dealer who had it 11 days still had moisture on inside of window until i bought some humidity control devices for a gun safe and used them for about two weeks to rid truck interior of moisture problems. Paid for four wheel drive truck four wheel has never worked in snow or when you need it, in the shop again, They say third times the charm to fix problem let's hope so
