2023 GMC Canyon Denali 4dr Crew Cab 4WD SB (2.7L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

Looks great. Sporty. Engine is quick. Mileage is no better my last V8 Gmc full size. Disappointing. Last truck was 19 Gmc Sierra Denali. Canyon rides very stiff and bouncy. If your tall you won't like the lack of head room when entering or existing. No.power mirrors. Rear window is not power. Does not have sky window. Very poor storage spaces inside. Back seats are almost unusable. Kids only. Adults won't fit. No room. Won't buy another. Will get full size next time. Much better than Canyon. Was really looking forward to Canyon but very disappointed.. UPDATE: Very stiff (bouncy) ride on small bumps etc. Ok as long on smooth roadway, So is a tractor LOL. Entry is terrible for tall person. Very hard to enter and exit. Annoying. Must be a contortionist to get in. Mileage is lousy considering its a 4 cyl. 17 mph is the best I've seen. I got a Denali assuming it would have the same options as previous full size Denali. It doesn't. No power fold in mirrors. No power rear window. MANUEL only. No sunroof. No power tailgate open. Very little interior storage. Backseat unusable for adults. Too small. Overall about 50 % satisfied. Next truck will definitely be full size!

Looks like it can take on ay terrain or tasks from the outside. High tech displays and information center on the inside. Engine power is enough. The ride is comfortable and has a view only a truck can provide.

I've owned a Tacoma TRD Off-Road for 9 years prior to purchasing my 2023 Canyon AT4X. Clearly the Tacoma is one of the best trucks ever made. However, GMC has built a super solid mid-sized truck that you can tell was very well thought out and executed. It checks all of the boxes and more than even the new Tacoma. Toyota is legendary for its reliability so time will tell on this new Canyon.
