I could see having to go to the screen to turn on and off the fog lights/ high beams could be annoying after awhile. Not a fan of these small turbo engines in trucks personally... definitely not in a half ton! But good looking Truck and great review Steve!
Not me, I override the auto lights all the time when they don’t come on during say a light rain or just gloomy out or on a one lane highway etc. I prefer physical buttons. Everything on a screen is just a cheap out by the manufacturer and dumb ppl eat it up. Yum yum
@@ALMX5DP Oh no it’s you again. This shift towards screens all over is a direct result of people’s obsession with phones. 8 out of 10 times I’m at a stop light the moron in the lead car never moves when it turns green because they have their face in a phone. Screens are cheap, buttons cost more but are a better option.
@@pryme2013 just continuing to be the voice of reason. What are the other 2/10 people doing in these situations and what does a phone have to do with a headlight control?
All of these mid-size trucks are amazing but not the PRICE. Ima happy with my 07 Ford Explorer Sport Trac V8. Regular maintenance & or just a few modifications, and it's still good as new.
I like the outside, but i still prefer the more basic interiors with physical buttons and knobs that you can use while driving without actually having to take your eyes off the road. Once again, y'all did an incredible review.
AT4 for me. I head to CO 3x per year and do 14ers which requires coming up really rough country trails but I don’t off-road enough to spend an extra $10k on an AT4X.
Im on the waiting list for the Canyon Elevation. Whats nice is you can spec it with the auto rear lock, comes with the trailering package. The light switch will take getting use to but you can create a shortcut on the screen to make it easier.
@@Mr.Miles24 yeah. Is pretty stupid. Heard of a guy who was getting 18mpg in his new z71. Absolutely ridiculous in my opinion. What’s the point of buying the smaller version if they are getting that terrible of mpg. Then on top of that they are 50k trucks. Save an extra 10k and get a 1/4 or 1/2 ton. That will probably last 100k miles longer and have 2x the resale value
Are you sure it's turbo lag your feeling and not just transmission lag? The gearing on this new 8 speed is longer and coupled with the larger tires could make for a bad time when it comes to torque converter slip and power to the ground. Too often do people blame power delays in a turbo vehicle on turbo lag, when it's not actually the engine lagging they're feeling
Honestly I prefer a tire pressure gauge with bleeder valve over this air down mode. You also shouldn't trust the TPMS of your vehicle. It's always better to check with a measuring device yourself.
5:12 A benefit of diesel is that the engines make less power than gasoline ones so you usually have more displacement and cylinders in comparable trims.
TK Dudes, love watching the reviews... I've been eyeing off this truck for sometime noe, holding out for the new Canyon. Former 10yr Jeep Wrangler guy, Jumped ship and got a Toyota TRD Pro Off-road for some refinement before the JL rolled out. But as a hard core Aussie off-roader living in the land of Stars and Stripes dreams and towing more weight TRD 5000lbs looking to up the anti another 1000lbs this is right in my wheelhouse. Great review from you Northern Blokes lol. love your channel can't choose which model to choose now. HA! One Day the guys will figure out Ala Carte so you get the trim you want with the options to buy in and get what you really want... Say for example DENALI TRIM with front and rear LD's why can't we the people have a little luxury and some Trail Goodies. TAKE NOTE GMC BAST**DS, OIH!
Right now the off-road trims are treated like sport trims. I'd say the only way to get traditional luxury is in the full-size segment like the Toyota Tundra 1794 with TRD Off-Road package. Also speaking of Toyota I'd definitely wait until the new Ranger and the Tacoma are out. Then you will have the choice between all the new midsize trucks, Canyon, Colorado, Frontier, Ranger, Tacoma....
GM has been taking lessons from the Germans. Everything you want is scattered across packages. Want all the safety equipment, buy 3 packages. Heated seats, and remote start, they're in separate packages. Heated steering wheel? I didn't see it. 58,297.00 was the total with packages for the Elevation and i didn't get everything lol.
A few items missing at this price point ($66K for Edition 1). Axle ratio option (3.42 seems a bit high for 33" tires, let alone potential for AEV 35" tires in 2024), Homelink button functionality, multiple integrated auxiliary switches, rear recovery hooks, more coverage on skid plates including fuel tank and flat fold down rear seats. BTW, i've looked at several Canyons and all of them had water in the tailgate compartment. Not sure GMC's claim for water tight is supportable. A great stance and certainly a much improved interior.
13:42 Do they still give you a paper owners manual? This is like video game tutorial popups, super annoying. I don't wanna sit there and squint at the screen, holding an actual manual is just nicer and also part of the experience.
how is the fit for you? how tall are you? i think we got the same build. when i drive my wifes 22 terrane, i'm way crunched in. can spread my legs at all. do you have a issue with that while your driving the canyon? can you see yourself driving this for a long distance/DD?
Nice looking truck but if I'm dropping 60k would buy a gladiator mojave I want buttons and real gauges Too much electronics is too much to go wrong especially first year
I understand that GM might want to streamline their manufacturing process, but that doesn't mean you have to eliminate all choices. The customers are giving you their hard earned money, so give them choices. Car manufacturers don't give you anything for free, so why not give the customer exactly the truck they want. I hate the packages they force on their customers because I just want heated mirrors, I dont want to "upgrade" to a more expensive model. Some people prefer a turbo, but others prefer a supercharger. For the price of these trucks, I think a premiere 4x4 would come with everything you need to take it off-road and not destroy it. A winch is a good start but it also needs rated recovery points (heavy steel brackets that bolt to the frame), rock sliders to protect the body and doors and all the options available for Jeep owners. If GM thinks anyone would choose these 4x4s over a Jeep, then they don't understand their market. Jeep has a panel with several auxiliary switches and endless choices of aftermarket parts available to make your vehicle as extreme as you want. GM puts one auxiliary switch in a 4x4 and thinks that's good enough. This looks like they started designing an SUV, then changed their mind and turned it into a truck. A car, a truck, and an SUV are three very different vehicles and must be designed for how they will be used. Is the AT4 supposed to be a serious 4x4 because it has a G80 locker? I used to own a 2002 Sonoma 2wd that came stock with a rear locker. I have a Heads Up Display for my Base Canyon that I bought from Amazon. The HUD I bought uses Bluetooth to connect to my phone and has an optional infrared / night vision camera for seeing through fog and snow. I can use the aftermarket to buy better seats and anything else that I want to build a better (more comfortable) truck than the Denali at a fraction of the price. My Canyon is a manual, that was only available with a 4 cylinder unfortunately, but I replaced the stock muffler with a Cherrybomb Vortex and now it sounds like an aggressive 6-cylinder, it accelerates faster and fuel economy improved by one liter per hundred.
And yet the first edition edition are all sold out!!! Those are the fools that cause these ridiculous price increases! No way $60k+ mid size with a 4 banger is worth it. I don’t care how much they try to justify the cost.👎👎 Bought my 2021 Trailboss with 6.2liter for $62k and thought that was too much.
They get rid of light switch but add auxiliary switches? 🤔 The prices on mid size trucks are getting ridiculous now…I just looked at a 4 door Silverado listed at $44k.
@@ALMX5DP that would be nice. My auto hi beams will dim at led street lights and not dim at certain vehicles I meet. Annoying, so I just manually do it like a cave man! Haha
@@northerntoyota7584 lol well yeah such is technology and it’s developmental quirks for newer stuff like that (at least the stuff that isn’t ungodly expensive like adaptive laser lights). Hopefully it improves enough that it won’t be an issue for me when I have to make another vehicle purchase.
Watchinf your test drive review videos on the gmc canyon elevation and at4 model trucks has me convinced that I will go trade in my 2023 Tacoma TRD Off Road truck as I do not like how it's 6 speed automatic transmission hunts for gears too badly as I am driving on the hilly terrain in northeast Tennessee when I go drive from Kingsport over southeast into Johnson city/Hampton and Erwin areas at the base of the Cherokee national forest. Since this will be my old man truck I might as well spend the extra 4,000 to 7,000 dollars to buy the better midsize truck. I like the at4x or the Colorado ZR 2 midsize trucks, Just not sure I would want to spend 54 to 57 grand on a midsize truck. I am very much interested in test driving the new 2024 Tacoma TRD PRO model truck since they are adding a front disconnect sway bar feature on the 4x4 truck. Plus the new seat8ng position being higher up and the new turbo 4 cylinder engine and 8 speed automatic transmission should solve tgat stupid gear hunting problem I am dealing with on my 2023 Tacoma TRD OR truck.
I need to say. The GMC Canyon looks great . I think GM is in trouble with Toyota New truck because they are offering more engines and cab sizes and different bed sizes. I think gm screwed up. They should attempt the little Duramax
My complaint is if the Denali in the last truck was an afterthought, why didn't you tell us that before. We seem to only get the real information when talking about older models. Also no physical light switch? Thats insane. It will come back because people will complain. You guys acting like its no big deal is ridiculous.
nice review, but I like full sized trucks. the prices for these made me cringe though. Until people stop buying the hugely expensive things, they will just keep adding more lipstick.
This is really nice, but have to get at least the AT4, because elevation doesn't have 2 spd transfer case. Just 4 hi, no 4 low. Then it's $45k. Still nice truck though.
You guys look disapointing of the performance.. 90% of the reviewers says that the colorado "390lbs" torque is peppee,awesome performance and then i see you guys that look a bit disapointing with a 430lbs torque truck 😅😅
New engine feels good, but we preferred the V6. So that led to the comments on performance. Numbers are only part of the story, how it's delivered is important as well.
To reduce turbo lag feel can you manually lock out higher gears & stay at an RPM & transmission gear that gives you power when you want ? Like F150 when you toggle down to 8th or 7th gear & leave it there. F150 will still downshift below setting but not lug engine & give instant power. i.e. keep revs in the torque band of engine
@@TruckKing underrated comment. Peak output figures don't give you the complete picture on how the vehicle will feel when accelerating. The linear curve of an N/A engine will be missed when they're all gone
Sorry, But I use my light switch constantly. Literally used it less than an hour ago pulling up to place to eat that is all glass and the front few parking spaces face the dining area and at night headlights shine right in the faces of people at tables. (Parking spaces are angled up to make it worse). Will be going to many holiday drive thru light shows that I need to turn my lights off. Southern summer time thunderstorms in the middle of the day, need lights on.
Nice looking, well appointed truck. What will it look like in 10 years? GM is able to make some very capable and reliable vehicles, will this be one of them? Previous generations of this truck were not exactly paragons of this particular virtue. The midsize truck market is odd: the best selling truck (Tacoma) doesn't win any of the typical numbers games, seems not only years but generations behind in technology, and has a weird seating position that isn't comfortable for everyone. So what does Toyota know that GM doesn't? Is it long-term vs short-term vision? Is it that GM is willing to throw everything they can think of, whether or not it's ready for primetime, into their vehicles, while Toyota seems to be willing to lose all the little fights ( numbers games for hp, tq, towing) in order to win the war ( longevity, reliability, resale value)? That doesn't seem like a strategy that should work, but here we are, again, with an older Toyota model handily outselling both GM models combined. How? Why? Great, informative content, gents!
I Prefer The Current Toyota Tacoma,Nissan Frontier & Ford Ranger To These Cousins(GMC & Chevy).,Unlike Their Big Brothers(HD & LD),Design Wise These Two Don't Float My Boat.
This integrated headlight control is for all the dummies running around out there with their headlights and tail lights off at night. Way too many people with an auto headlight switch that don't use them.
I could see having to go to the screen to turn on and off the fog lights/ high beams could be annoying after awhile. Not a fan of these small turbo engines in trucks personally... definitely not in a half ton! But good looking Truck and great review Steve!

When you add option like cruise control to your Chevy the GMC starts making more sense.

New low price! Na…..just kidding. Option that out to 60k+. Then the dealer will add a few grand just because they can.

So what does Toyota know that GM doesn't? Is it long-term vs short-term vision? Is it that GM is willing to throw everything they can think of, whether or not it's ready for primetime, into their vehicles, while Toyota seems to be willing to lose all the little fights ( numbers games for hp, tq, towing) in order to win the war ( longevity, reliability, resale value)? That doesn't seem like a strategy that should work, but here we are, again, with an older Toyota model handily outselling both GM models combined. How? Why? Great, informative content, gents!
41K with no cruise control. Remember that when you try and purchase a GM midsize truck.
That screens only good for one thing...watch AC⚡DC videos n car chases while your sitting in your driveway
Why do Gen X need a Work truck? They are not blue collar
7700 lbs or 3500 kg is btw als what globally most trucks max out interestingly enough.
It dies look great, but No thanks. I’ll keep my V6 Tacoma
Gmc looks a lot like the Silverado
I Prefer The Current Toyota Tacoma,Nissan Frontier & Ford Ranger To These Cousins(GMC & Chevy).,Unlike Their Big Brothers(HD & LD),Design Wise These Two Don't Float My Boat.
Gas mileage is extremely horrible on the twins ....I'd wait out for the '24 Tacoma Hybrid....
Sounds like a Korean econobox.
Its 100% Gm USA made
@@geezusmeatball1328 Great looking and capable truck, sounds like a POS.
So only 4 cylinders, at a higher price. I hope this engine lasts like the ones from previous generations.
This integrated headlight control is for all the dummies running around out there with their headlights and tail lights off at night. Way too many people with an auto headlight switch that don't use them.
Who does that, I never see that……….been probably 20 years since I’ve seen a vehicle where it’s not auto?! 🤷🏽♂️
I know. The at4. Is. A. Good off roader
