2004 GMC Canyon SL review from North America
"Inexpensive mid-size with the feel of a full-size truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problems I have encountered so far are road vibration at speeds above 45 mph and rough idle. The first trip to the dealer did not correct either.
General comments?
This truck has the most interior room of any small/mid-size truck I drove. The four cylinder automatic accelerates better than some of the six cylinders out there. Even plenty of power when passing at higher speeds. Exterior fit and finish is very good, but some interior features need to be updated. The cd player only came with two speakers and there is no key entry on the passenger door. Gas mileage in town is only about 17 mpg, somewhat less than the advertised 20 mpg. Not tested highway mileage yet.
