  Great first car - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Cory Sykes - April 1 - 2:51 pm

  It is a very good truck. Very dependable and good on gas for a truck. The only complaint is the driver side door speaker has blown out. other than that it is a very enjoyable truck that surprisingly hasnt gotten stuck in any areas.

  Owned lots of vehicles, this one is best - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By A.P. - July 27 - 11:44 pm

  I have had my vehicle since 2004, it is black, 4WD, and extended cab feature. Previously owned the Sonoma, and this truck is a big improvement. I added these features to the truck: 1.) sprayed in bedliner. 2.) alarm system, remote engine start. It has given me no trouble whatsoever, and has stood by my through thick and thin. Gas mileage is very good, has the slant 5 engine, gets 18 miles to gallon in city.

  Fun and good gas mileage - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Jim Salern - December 17 - 7:58 pm

  General Motors should have made this truck ten years ago and scrap the Sonoma. This truck rides quiet and smooth. The steering is tight. The gas mileage is good. Since I got my truck, other people I know have bought on e too. I love the 5 cylinder engine. Although car magazines rate the new Tacoma and the Hondas new pick-up truck a higher rating, Ill probably buy another Canyon when this one gets old.

  Minor Problems... - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By carolyn2112 - August 10 - 2:15 pm

  I bought this one straight from the factory. I am a little disapointed in the quality. I have had the passenger door speaker blow out three times on me, as well as the parking brake handle come off and the hood latch break. No major system troubles, but the minor ones still sent it back to the dealer!

  I shopped around through many dealerships and test drove all the pickups available and this one suited my needs. I got a good deal and Im extremely happy with my purchase. This is a gorgeous truck!

  Canyon performance - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Ron - April 2 - 5:02 pm

  I am very satisfied with the overall performance. it was not designed to be a rocket. I have no complaints with the power, and I can pull a loaded utility trailer with firewood weighing about 300 lbs. with no problems. The interior could use a bit of dazzle, as it is quite plain. Rear disc brakes would be better. The exteior is as classy as any small truck on the market. I have had many compliments on the design.

  GMC Canyon is a nice truck - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Greg - February 26 - 8:45 pm

  At first, the GMC Canyons interior was hard to adapt to the plastic materials left much to be desired. After a while, however, I adapted and began to appreciate the plastics. They are actually quite rugged. My truck has the I5, XM, 6CD, Auto-dimming/compass mirror, and power heated leather seats. All are very enjoyable. The seats are comfortable for the longest of trips, and the vehicle handles very well and has a TON of power for only having five cylinders. It is very much more powerful than its S-series predecessors, and I can confirm first hand that the truck can pull WAY more than it is rated -- the truck can pull over 7,500 pounds practically effortlessly. Trust me.

  A month of interstates and mountains - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Tom - February 24 - 8:36 pm

  Ive found the Canyon 3.5 liter excellent for fast interstate and slower, steep mountain driving. The two stage 4wd has also been very good on snow. The OEM tires, however, have limited "stickiness" in spite of their "all season" rating.

  Great truck - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By Karen Newberry - January 11 - 10:42 pm

  I love driving this truck. It rides like a Yukon, only better. I never would drive a truck and fell in love with this one. Only problem we have is my husband hits his elbows on the split console sometimes. I have no problems with it at all!

  Better than the rest - 2004 GMC Canyon
  By David Romanyshyn - December 5 - 3:59 pm

  This has been an incredible truck! The engine is smooth and powerful, the suspension soaks up bumps better than my roommates 2001 Accord, there are no rattles anywhere, and everything feels solid and of great quality. I especially love the crisp shifting of my 5-speed Aisin manual. Compared to my fathers 2002 Ranger, this truck is way ahead in all areas. I highly recommend one!
