Wow, this is a nice midsize truck! GM should own the segment between these two trucks.

It's a very nice looking truck; I think this and the Colorado will do very well. It will be good for GM and truck enthusiasts in general if the mid-size truck market does well.

Now for the die-hard enthusiast complaints:
1. It would be awesome if it offered a manual transmission across the board, not just in the autoparts store work truck edition
2. This "mid-size" or whatever we are calling it is probably as big as a 90's full size C/K 1500

2500HD pics are scarce, I've discovered. There's a few poorly shot real world pictures out there but nothing good.

I still don't understand why Chevy needs to put that nasty rake in all their trucks. It's way worse than any other manufacturer even though they all do it.

Fuel economy ratings due to aerodynamics and also that truck will be more at level when there is full or even partial load compression on the rear springs.

It's a good looking truck. Glad they went with the little Sierra styling. I think I would still go for the Colorado though.

Its good looking with the sierra full size look in mid size but why did they go with those ugly euro looking tail lamps it think that is the only thing I don't like about it. I think cause of that and I do like the chevy Colorado front end a lil bit more ill go with the chevy but I believe they will both do well in the market.

Wow...I do love this truck! When the time comes that I'm ready for one of these I'll be looking for a crew cab, and absolutely love the look of the crew cab on this truck...I think even more so than the Colorado.

The ones in the pictures and videos looks so nice. It looks like a higher level of sophistication than the Colorado, although I really like the Colorado as well.

Speaking of that, it looks like the Canon can be optioned out higher than the Colorado, which I'm sure will end up meaning the Canyon will be pricier than the Colorado. But I wonder what their price points will be. Will the Canyon end up being more costly than the Colorado across trim levels, or even the base trucks?

Really happy with this...I can definitely see myself in this truck. Nice job GM.

Canyon has had a higher base with more standard features in the past.

I love the front end on this truck compared to the Colorado.
