    When I was trying to decide between the second generation Colorado and Canyon, the deciding factor was dealership customer service. Close to where I live there is a Chev and GMC dealership, 2 blocks apart. My preference was for the Chevy Colorado, but I had a bad experience at the Chev dealership, and so I picked the Canyon. The GMC dealership was easier to deal with, friendly, and I didn't dread going there. Knowing that I couldn't avoid the dealership, I decided that good customer service was more important than anything else.

      they all suck at some point , I despise the one next to my house. Its the service departments that really gets under Your skin. There really offensive with there prices sometimes you want to beat the shit out of the guy and run his head thru the nearest wall . I had a tranny fluid change with tranny lines changed quoted at 1800 at the dealer and so I went to a mechanic down the road for the same job I paid $475 total job, and I watched him do it with all deco parts , the dealer won't do a job unless there totally ripping you off and its just not right because sometimes I want to go to the dealer, I avoid like the plague .

      I have a 2016 Colorado diesel that I bought new - only time I ever went to the dealership was for the two free oil changes they offered and once for a DEF pump that was covered under the emission warranty. So yeah, you can avoid them. I do all my own work on it. Easiest to work on vehicle I’ve ever owned.

      @Encourageable My gauge cluster stopped working on my 2002 Sonoma, and I tried guessing how fast I was going by "seat of the pants" feel. I took it to my mechanic, but it required special equipment to diagnose it. Then, at the dealership, I was told it would cost $600, and they would have to send it out for a week to be reconditioned. I called the salvage yard, and they had one, so I got a replacement for $90.

      Trailboss: $43K+, no seat warmers, no LED lights, no fog lights, no steering wheel warmer. Definitely not a great vehicle for those of us in winter climates and/or in the mountains. As for the lack of LEDs, it's been a very very long time since I had a vehicle with Halogen lights, which is what my 2022 Nissan Frontier SV has now,. This truck completely sucks to drive at night in the mountains where I live. The visibility in front of me is the worst I have seen (well I can't see much) in the 20+ years of vehicles I have been leasing. 3 months left on this lease, and counting down.

      @@colten53 a few of my previous vehicles had projector lamp style lights that worked great in the mountains at night. The standard reflector style halogens in my 2022 Nissan Frontier are the worst headlights I had since the late 90s. You don't see deer on the edge of the roads until you're very close with the halogens. In previous vehicles, their eyes would reflect back the light from a distance, so I could easily know where they were.

      Halogen, HID, or LED is not the defining factor for how good a headlight is. It's whether it's a projector or reflector style. If everyone were required to have reflector headlights I'd be all for it. But as it is, every Toyota, Subaru, and Audi on the road blinds everyone else, so I want projectors too.

    The price jump on the Canyon removed it right off my shopping list. I had a 2019 GMC Canyon V6 4x4 in an Extended Cab with the convenience and tow packages, as well as the spray-in bedliner. The sticker was $34,500. The 2023s are now starting at about $43K and you only get a 5' bed and no option for an extended cab. The reliability of my 2019 was a nightmare. The AC had to be replaced three times in less than three years, and the transmission and transfer case also needed warranty repairs are well in that time. GM was a nightmare to deal with, in summer 2019, the truck was 3 months old and the AC failed the first time. It then took GM 53 days to replace the AC, and only after my state's AG got involved. GM Corporate representative was unapologetic and was actually downright rude about the whole situation. At the prices GM wants these days for these trucks, it is a hard pass.

    I'm still trying to figure out which trim I want. I have the money for a ZR2, but do I need all the offroad tech? I mean I won't be rock crawling out in the Mojave like I did in the military. At most, I'll be at my grandfather's old farm crossing the creek and going out into the woods. The Trail Boss looks great visually, but the interior is lacking compared to its siblings. Still, I think the aftermarket will have fun with this platform and swapping out trim isn't that hard. One trip to the junkyard can kinda fix all my complaints so I don't know. I could just buy the AT4 and call it a day.

    Andrey!! They didn’t give you red tow hooks so that you would pay for them. Part of the now even worse method of nickel and dime sales practices almost all of the manufacturers are getting into. They are $180 in Canada!! 😮. I would remove them and paint them myself. Like you did with the cheap white Ram reg cab.
    The premium material is called “Evotex”. Fancy vinyl,, I agree!! 😂😂.
    I prefer the front of the GMC and the rear, including the box sides, of the Colorado! Naturally. The Denali with the all terrain tires has a very nice look. With the Eaton automatic locking rear differential, it would more than meet my needs now. Maybe another colour,,,, but I do like it. The mid size trucks option for option (close as possible) are much cheaper than the full size trucks still. That’s unfortunate as they are not willing to negotiate using that sales example as a tactic.
    The local GMC dealership sells a LOT of lifted and modified Canyon Denalis. It’s surprising the number of guys that get up to 35s LT tires 8 ply or heavier with the 20” wheels, factory or otherwise. I have seen them do some impressive things with the older models,,,,,.
    I may order a new Denali one Z71. You can option them up very closely and the power & luxury is similar. It will be all about looks of course. I don’t know which,,,,.
    The Trail Boss is a no go just because of the lack of heated seats. For the price and where I live, they are a very strong want to the point they are a deal breaker. There’s still the aftermarket, mind you. It’s really not that hard to put heated seat pads into any factory seat really.

    My thought is for the price Andre paid for his Colorado, cruise control, led lights, and leather wrapped steering wheel should have been included.

There really isn’t a justifiable reason for the prices of todays new trucks. It’s sad

    Several strange choices made by GM. The light control being in the large screen seems silly. Why not at least put it in the driver info screen if you don't want to use a knob. I leave my lights on auto most of the time so I get it but I like just pushing the button to turn on fog lights and headlights. It's also crazy to me that they didn't include a power rear window in the Denali. And then there's the lack of cruise control on Andre's truck . . . oof. The payloads aren't terrible but the beds are so small you likely won't have an issue anyway.

    People have been shitting on the new Ranger and joking it will be unreliable. Maybe that's true but where I work we use the now last gen Colorado (2019/2020) and they are trash. The 20 is nicer than 19 but both years are very unreliable. We're always bringing them in to the dealer for various issues and the transmissions do not want to shift normally at lower speeds. I would absolutely NOT recommend. Mind you most of these are 50-80k miles.

I am not buying until the end of 2024. Personally, I would shop for the Colorado Trail Boss or Canyon Elevation 4WD or possibly the Canyon AT4. No interested in the WT, ZR2, Denali, or AT4X.

      I thought that too until I built an Elevation. The elevation only comes with a single speed transfer case, it does not have four low. If you have any aspirations or thoughts that you may take it off road, that's pretty much a deal breaker. I imagine that would hurt resale value a pretty good amount as well.

    All modern mid-size and even full-size trucks are becoming SOOOOOO GOOOD at being trucks (i.e. hauling, towing and overlanding) that the ONLY FACTORS as to which one you choose to buy or lease should be Dealer Experience (i.e. good customer service) and a COMBINED low-monthly truck financing payment AND comprehensive vehicle insurance plan playment! Those are now the ONLY factors that should come into play!
    On a realistic basis brand loyalty is NO LONGER A FACTOR and should be discarded in favour of getting the lowest monthly playment for a truck that lets you tow the most, haul the most and/or give you the best interior comfort and technology for your personal tastes!
    Go for the dealer and truck that BEST WORKS for your monthly wallet outlay and best customer service (i.e. are they prompt in fixing things!)
    If your local Chevy, Nissan, GMC, Ford, Toyota, RAM or Jeep dealer can give you a COMBINED set of low payments and good customer service, then GO BUY OR LEASE YOUR TRUCK AT THAT DEALER!
