2023 GMC Canyon 4WD AT4: Redefining the Midsize Truck

There is steep competition in the midsize truck field with the likes of the Nissan Frontier, Ford Ranger, Toyota Tacoma, and the Chevy Colorado, sister to the next-generation 2023 GMC Canyon which we just experienced in AT4 superhero form.

During our time with a Desert Sand Metallic model, a few days of mountain biking with the Fit Fathers team in Patapsco State Park in Maryland kept the adventure flowing. Aesthetically, the GMC Canyon AT4 sensationally features a strong 15-pod grille with the red GMC insignia, a front skidplate with recessed red two hooks, 18" rims powered by 265/65 R18 Goodyear Wrangler Territory all-terrain tires, 2 lifted suspension, cornerstep rear bumper, and a wide stance thanks to an upgraded off-road suspension package providing 9.6 of ground clearance.
