| The Car Connection's Take | |||
| TCC Rating | |||
|
|
|
||
| TCC’s Bottom Line | |||
| With the addition of the new V-8 option, the 2009 GMC Canyon goes from unappealing to quite competitive. | For those of us who don't live on a ranch, the 2008 Nissan Frontier is large enough to haul real people and cargo, but sized for the urban-congestion reality. | ||
