GMC Canyon Reviews
"The 2008 GMC Canyon is an attractively styled, light-duty pickup that appears competitive on paper. But out in the real world where performance, passenger comfort and overall build quality really count, it doesn't quite measure up to its rivals from Dodge, Nissan and Toyota."—Edmunds.com1
"The 2008 GMC Canyon is the right choice for a fuel-efficient truck that has the capability of a full-size pickup in towing and hauling. Its biggest assets lie in its suspension setups which provide respectable off-road performance and convenient handling dynamics."—AutomobileReviewer2
