Exelent truck over all
Would give it a 5 star but for the lack of a mettle bumper and the dumb location of the headlight control and 4 wheel drive control (almost half to open the door to see them) along with the fact I half to duck down to see the fuel gauge.- Purchased a New car

Great vehicle so far
I've only owned it a few weeks but for a first time truck owner, I'm really liking it. If there was one thing I could change, it would be to get rid of the key start and add a push button start. Other than that, I love it.- Purchased a Used car

Nice looking vehicle.
This truck is exactly what we were looking for. Like the color and size of the interior and exterior of the truck. The interior is tan and brown. Good leg room.- Purchased a Used car

Go with the duramax
Great fuel mileage for a 4X4. 25 city, 30 highway. My buddy's uses a quart every 2500 miles but my truck is fine. Might be cause of the break in procedure I did. I wanted a Ranger but got the Canyon with the duramax for less. Automatic downshifting in cruise control as well as exhaust brakes saves the brakes.- Purchased a New car

Love this power house that’s also fuel efficient
The duramax engine is a fuel efficient power house. I think the Canyon 4x4 is the best mid-size pickup on the market! Get the long bed so you can haul the things you need.- Purchased a New car
