I gotta agree. Especially for people that live in city or suburbs. You really don't need that large of a truck... The canyon/colorados are amazing as far as every day drivers. So smooth, handle fantastic and easy to park. It's funny because in almost every country a colorado, tacoma or frontier is just considered a truck...it's only in the US that we think we need something that large.

 

I'm a contractor and the canyon meets my needs 95% of the time, and when its size doesn't, I can use a bed extender. This while enjoying the driveability of these canyons is fantastic.

 

If size is the biggest determining factor for price then a ferrari should be less expensive then a huge buick sedan...

 

Fluffy, I sent you a personal message. Please check your inbox. Thanks!

I just recently purchased my 2017 Canyon SLE V6 for $30,262. It came with SLE trim, Tow package with hitch and trailer brake controller. Also had spray in bedliner and the Convenience Pkg with sliding rear window, 8 inch display, Auto climate control, etc. It's a Crew Cab, short box truck. Love it so far.

 

*Wish it had a damn CD player though... I guess i'm old school. I have a ton of CD's and really don't feel like spending hours upon hours ripping CD's to a thumb drive. But hey, that's PROGRESS... right??

I just picked up a new 2017 v6 3.6L LT loaded, 4x4, power everything, Crew Cab, Long Box, silver, 340 miles on it. $31,900 before taxes, title, and licensing, and I decided to buy some added warranties.

 

 

I could have purchased a new 2017 1500 double cab, std box, 4x4, custom, 5000 miles, loaner truck, for the exact same price.

 

 

I just fell in love with the loaded options, and how big the interior is. I am 5'11" 230lbs, and it fits me great!

 

Thanks - Preston

Wanted a 19 Canyon, couldn't find one the way I wanted so special order SLT loaded. MSRP $38K, 2K off in incentives.

 

But because I knew dealers get 3% GM kickback on each sale for any given month, plus paid cash, used that to lower pre-tax cost to just under $35,200.00.

 

By the way, order time was 4 weeks 6 days from placement to drive away in Feb 2019.

 

Also, I was told by sales manager that they move 42-44 2019 Colorados/Canyons per month, 16-18 Silverado/Sierra per month, and average delta cost between Sierra/Canyon with comparable config was $14,100.00 lower for Canyon (from msrp's). Otherwise, getting a good deal is up to the individual, and sometimes even pure chance at buying when special offers are happening or dealer wants to move inventory.

 

If you have great credit and big down or even full-price cash, HIGHLY RECOMMEND dealing with sales manager if possible. You'll get a much better deal, less back-and-forth than through salesman. Also, if financing, get pre-approved with somebody, like credit union, bank, or finance co. Otherwise finance person will try to screw you with very high interest loans that they get kickbacks on.

 

Last but not least, the same dealer had 17 leftover new 2018 Silverado/Sierra trucks, various models, colors, and such. Selling in $36k-43K range (pre-tax). Highest price one was a dark red Sierra Denali 4x fully loaded. I should have got the Denali, it was nice ...

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.
