( www.allTFL.com ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our TFLstudios content, from news to videos and our podcasts! With its new turbocharged four-cylinder engine, you'd think the new GMC Canyon AT4X would be massively more efficient than the old truck's 3.6-liter V6 engine. The EPA rates the new Canyon AT4X AEV at 16 MPG combined, but how does it actually perform in the real world? Andre finds out on a 200-mile road trip!

@rockymountainjazzfan1822 13 дней назад

Here is a dirty little secret about current "premium" fuel. A common tactic to raise the octane of premium fuel since the government upped the amount allowable ethanol percentage in gasoline to 15% is adding more ethanol to premium gasoline. It does raise the octane, but ethanol contains less energy per gallon that actual gasoline, so the vehicle may very get LOWER fuel economy using premium fuel compared to regular unleaded. Where I live in the Great Plains, a couple of gasoline retail chains actually charge less per gallon for premium fuel than they do for regular unleaded gasoline, but the energy content per gallon is lower. To be clear about this, I am NOT talking about E85 fuel, which is 85% ethanol.

@troyg3439 12 дней назад

My state sells 91 octane no ethanol fuel for premium at most fuel stations. My turbo engine much prefers 91 or 93 octane with 10% ethanol. I'll take better performance over the 2-3mpg I lost. Want to make a modern engine unhappy? Feed it no ethanol fuel. Cars ECU are designed to run 10-15% ethanol today.

What’s the point of the midsize truck segment? They don’t have an 8ft bed option but are as externally big as the old full-size trucks, the original mid size segment, the Dakota and T-100 had 8ft bed options. They get the same mpg as modern full size half ton trucks. These trucks originate from the S-10, B2000, Hardbody, D-50, Courier, Hilux and Luv, which at least got mileage in the 20’s when full-size trucks of their era barely got double digit mileage. Bring back the compact trucks of yesteryear. These trucks suck and cost a fortune.

@frankenstook 13 дней назад

My '23 Canyon Denali also does not match the EPA MPG Ratings. It's rated at 17 city and 21 highway. My use is overwhelmingly local/city driving, and all of my 90-100% city driving fill-ups are between 13.1 and 14.6 mpg. On a road trip, it will get 22.0 mpg with the cruise set at the speed limit, so it will beat the estimate there. My 13-14 mpg is 20-24% low compared to the published 17mpg city, though. The truck has about 3100 miles on it, and the lifetime average (including about 700 highway miles) is 15.1mpg. I'm not hammering it from stoplights either. I'm still a fan of the truck, but the daily mileage is disappointing. So far, total cost per mile is $0.205, where my '15 Ram 1500 diesel was $0.166 over the ~85k miles I owned it.

@plmn93 13 дней назад

If you are beating the highway estimate but getting way worse in the city, the problem is almost certainly how it is being driven or the conditions you are driving in. The main advantage to turbos in mileage is in the city, but they need to be driven conservatively to benefit. You can have economy or you can have boost but you can't have both at the same time. I love the 2.7 in my F-150, my lifetime average is over 4 MPG better than my old 5.4 truck.

Not so much, but if you do need to road-trip it, it helps knowing a real-world (approximate) range. My personal range before I like to stop is in the 400ish range, so knowing ~350 miles before needing to stop helps to know. Our truck has a 36 gal. tank, so I have to stop way before the truck does doing highway runs. If towing, our range goes way down, but still very acceptable and in this case for this specific truck ,(IMO) it would be helpful to have a little larger gas tank.
