I have always had a truck. However, as I have aged my needs have changed. My Canyon is the perfect size for me now and still offers many benefits of the Fullsize pickups. View of the road is a huge benefit for me. Ability to haul home improvement items and pull a utility trailer are important as well. Midsize comes at a lower vehicle cost and better fuel economy, but still offer interior space, 4 wheel drive and easy handling.

Have owned vehicle for 113 days. It has been in the shop for 36 of those days!! Non-stop electrical issues! The center console is a complete nightmare! Volume will randomly max out and you can’t turn it off! Only way to get it to stop is by turning the vehicle off, you can’t do that on a highway. The center console also constantly restarts and if you happen to have your phone plugged in it can hard freeze your phone. Also reported transmission issues with hard shifts and clangs and gmc’s response was it just does that! Customer service is also a nightmare, they tell you they will call back in 24-48 hours, your lucky to get a call back in 2 weeks. I am currently in the buyback process they never respond and refuse to provide a rental car when they work on my car. (Btw I payed for extended warranty and rental protection). I will posting all videos of the truck messing up for proof of my complaints. Just don’t buy this truck! Get anything else and avoid gmc in general!

This truck was more expensive than a Tacoma and lacks many of it's features. Has more repair bills and problems gas mileage is poor, transmission clunks and shakes around town ride is terrible so sorry I bought it, and can't wait till I can afford to get rid of it. Don't buy you will be disappointed like me.
It's an eye turner !

Nice truck rides very good. The wife loves it too. What I like is it's a true mid-size , not a little tin can.

Ride is very comfortable. We took long trip with wife and kids and wife remarked how plush it was. My only wish is for a Tech Upgrade: there’s No adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist (I’ve since come to appreciate not having push button start, since thieves know how to use it). And it lacks a lot of rear seat storage. After two-years, it has held up well with no issues. Power is strong for passing and from the start. I’ve no mechanical or quality issues.

I bought this truck with under 8000 miles on the odometer. Now has 22,500. So far, zero issues. I have only owned Mazda, toyota, lexus, infiniti, nissan's and honda's up until now. This has been my son's truck because as a single mom, we needed a truck for the normal homeownership things and towing ability. After driving his truck around the last couple of weeks, I decided I'm trading in my Infiniti SUV for a car for him and I'm driving this truck! All in all it's a great truck! Fuel mileage in town is okay unless I sit and idle letting the engine run, hwy mileage I'm getting 24. The seats are a little stiff, but I believe that to be the AT4 trim. I'm going to get seat covers with some cushion and that should resolve. The truck handles well on snow conditions and off road. The deciding factor for me on keeping this truck vs my infiniti is value. It is holding it's value EXTREMELY well while the QX60 seems to lose value by the day! The truck is also rugged enough for me to feel comfortable to load landscaping items, top soil etc and not worry about messing up the back. I am going to change the headlights to LED, add a Tonneau cover so I can throw bags in the back and add at least a driver's seat cover and this truck is everything I need. A full size truck won't fit in my garage nor would it have the maneuverability of the Canyon. Happy with this purchase

Nice looks truck and interior looks pretty good but mechanically this thing sucks. I have 545 miles on truck and already has to go to the dealership for transmission issues. The truck likes to jerk when coming to a stop and hunts for gears when driving. I should had done my research before purchasing.

Like reliability,power, comfort, style, leather, upgrades, and towing and hauling capabilities. Dislike transmission skips, Jerry gear shifting and differential, and poor gas mileage.

Dash lights not working

These trucks have been rock solid since day one, my 1991 has same motor (3.6), honestly you can't kill them. My 2021 Canyon has some type of electrical problem with the dash lights not working on the sensor or the switch. The dealer had it for a full day, checked all the modules and said every seems to be OK on that end. But lights still don't work properly. I'm wondering if it is the main ground like the issue on the 2001 - 2008.
