Sweet 5 Cylinder-GMC Pickup Truck - 2005 GMC Canyon
By angelballs - February 9 - 10:55 amBought my truck new in October 2004, This sweet 5 cylinder pickup has served me well on long 1100 mile runs from Florida to Maryland and back as well as 5 and 6 mile trips to buy heavy materials such as sod and mulch, as well as lumber from big box stores. The paint quality is exceptional and day after day in Florida sunshine it is still beautiful after all these years. A dream to drive, it still stirs my soul when I see it sitting in solemn eloquence.

Great Truck - 2005 GMC Canyon
By Matt - May 5 - 11:38 amGreat truck for doing things you need to do, without the gas of a full size. Great family car to take to the beach, worth every bit of money.

Long term review - 2005 GMC Canyon
By Andy L. - January 9 - 5:18 pmI bought this truck new in Oct 2004. My review from Jan 06 remains true. This truck has been outstanding. The fit and finish on the interior is fine, the exterior has held up perfectly. It is very well powered, and a pleasure to drive. Does great in Michigan winters. Even better with new Dick Cepek FC-II tires. Ive hauled many loads of wood, pulled a small boat, traveled with family of five and never been let down. The only two issues have been the theft deterance went out (minor), and the drivers window regulater died ($300) I have 86k miles and plan to put on many more.

Great truck ! - 2005 GMC Canyon
By mr bill - November 24 - 9:49 amI bought my 2005 used in 2009 after the lease ran out. It is a great tight well handly truck and I have had no problems with it. It gets a consistant 26 mpg with 3.5 and auto transmission. As I said I bought it used, but it still is in great shape and I am very pleased and would recomend it to anyone wanting this size truck.

Great little truck - 2005 GMC Canyon
By Bill R - May 25 - 7:35 pmI bought this truck used with only 20,00 on it. It was taken care of and the truck is a great little truck. With the 3.5 and auto trans I get a consistent 26 mpg. I have no complaints as it is a tight, well built truck. For a compact/mid size truck, its great! It is also American built! I looked at other brands, and the GMC is as good as any other truck.

Great little truck! - 2005 GMC Canyon
By bill - May 5 - 11:26 amI bought my GMC Canyon used with 20k on it in early 2009. It is a well built and quality truck in my opinion. It has the 3.5 and automatic trans. and gets an average of 25-26 mpg. Very pleased with the truck and features and would recommend it to anyone who wants a smaller economical truck. I looked at Ford and the imports, and this GM truck is as good and maybe better and glad I bought it.
