2015 GMC Canyon SLT 4x4 Test Drive Video Review - Mid-Size Pickup Truck 

I realize it's kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good website to stream new series online?

@Hunter Harper Lately I have been using Flixzone. Just google for it =)

@Hunter Harper try Flixzone. Just google for it :)

Hi I was wondering if you can update me with how the truck lasted for you? I am looking at a 2015 GMC Canyon SLE that has 125,000 miles and was wondering how reliable the car is? Thanks !

+NuovoSoldato no issues. 3 recalls took less than 2 hrs, to be expected with new models. Overall I love my truck.

+Jeremiah Brewer Its been about a month, anything you'd like to report? I'm trying to decide between this and a Tacoma. Thanks!

Its a nice truck. Another recall so total is 4. The Tacoma is a new model this year as well as is sure to have the same issues with recalls. I don't discredit my decision to purchase the truck.

+Jeremiah Brewer Very nice - thanks for taking the time to respond and also be honest!

Fabian Rico You guys still get the Ford Ranger from what I seen on the Ford Mexico Website.

Osbel Reyes holy shit right chem central

Thanks, TheTonytodd! We tested at approximately 250-400 feet above sea level.

Wow. Thanks.

Good try, no cookie.

Watch the video.

+user3251 "NO offroading and NO trailer hauling", then buy a car

+brunoignaciogi umm ok... well i'm a contractor so the "bed" kinda helps with my job thanks for your comment

then go with the ford ranger stile of pick ups, they're small by american standard but they fit your need of ocasional usage of the bed. Americans really need to know the toyota hilux, and Volkswagen amarok.

Cool cat

You can go to TFL truck where they tow 7000lbs up a mountain and does extremely well

Ya at 6800RPM at 3mpg, motor is likely finished given a few more runs like that. That's hardly a test. Wait until it has 100,000km on it then see how tuff it is.

and high RPMs mean more responsive throttle and keep it one gear will make it easier on the transmission

The truck was at capacity, due to the grade and speed of choice. At those parameters it only had one gear choice. The Tacoma would be slower but would burn less fuel at that point, if the 305HP is at 6800RPM; its burning fuel. If you travel this type of terrain than Tacoma offers a Supercharger from TRD with full warranty and its power will not be affected by elevation pressures as the supercharger will maintain the 302HP. What I am saying is that a motor reving at 6800RPM vs an engine reving at 5200 RPM will not last as long. Both have the same Torque but the Tacoma makes the torque more truck-useable at a lower RPM. High RPM is not for trucks unless you want a rat-rod built for pavement. The test only lasts for 30 minutes. How about owning the truck for 5 years, lets say, and see if its still alive. That is about 2,628,000 minutes in comparison. Thats a test that Tacoma has already proven way beyond that time frame.

You see these trucks aren't made for people to tow with them everyday. and most people who buy mid size are people who do not tow 7000 up steepest grade. and how do you know the torque curves of both vehicles? have you taken them to a dyno and compare numbers? and now you have to throw a supercharger on the tacoma just to compete with it? Take the same load up with the tacoma and i guarantee its not gonna be at 2000 rpm's its gonna be screaming up it just like the colorado. You stated show it doing "tuff" stuff instead of just driving around and there it is towing 7000 up one of the most steepest grades in north america and you still try to knock it off..

You DO understand that this is a mid-size truck? Wait, maybe you don’t.
