Solid Mid-Size Truck
I've owned this truck for nearly 3 years (2012 GMC Canyon crew cab) and have had no major problems.The truck has a great exterior design.The inline 5 cylinder has plenty of power for hauling small trailers, boats,etc. The gas mileage is not great but not the worst either.The interior is far from high tech but everything works well. There's plenty of leg and head room for the driver and passenger side. The back seat is perfect for kids and but not so great for tall guys like myself. I would recommend the Canyon to anybody that's looking for a solid mid-size truck. Glad to see GM has brought the Canyon for 2015.

Fuel economy for this truck???
Bought a 2012 Canyon 4 door 2WD with 2.9 Lt. 4 cyl. eng. earlier this year to replace a 1995 Sonoma with 4.3 W code V6. Always thought the '95 got only mediocre gas mileage till started using the 2012 in mixed use driving. The Canyon will barely get 14 MPG!!! The truck runs perfectly, has no check engine lights on and onboard diagnosis shows no trouble codes or other abnormalities. Found the previous owner and asked him about this and he said that's the main reason he traded it in with only 12,000 miles on a Nissan. Can anyone offer any thoughts or ideas on this, or is this par for the course for this truck? Thanks for any info on this, brgrds, Dave F.

I love it
I bought the 4X4 w/4L engine. Almost 200 hp. I use it for daily transportion to work. I'm also a DIYer so I need a truck to carry 2x4s and such. Great truck! SUPER GAS MILEAGE !!! Great value for the money!
