The Car Connection's Take

TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2020 Ford Ranger mid-size pickup is a willing companion to weekend adventures. It’s our worst best friend.

The 2020 GMC Canyon has its virtues, but its design is beginning to feel old and it hasn’t done well in crash tests.

TCC Likes

Right-sized footprint
Good turbo-4
Good 8.0-inch touchscreen

Style is aging well
Great engine lineup
Many trim levels

TCC Dislikes

Too expensive
Sub-par safety scores
Bounding ride

Showing its age
Concerning safety scores
Costly diesel
