2012 GMC Canyon

Offered for sale is an exceptionally low-mileage 2012 GMC Canyon SLE-2, showing just 22,399 miles since new. Finished in a striking Fire Red exterior over a clean black interior with cloth seating and black carpeting, this Canyon represents a rare opportunity to own one of the final examples of GMCs compact pickup before the platform was retired later that year. Adding to its appeal, this particular vehicle has had only one owner and has spent most of its life in Texas, away from regions known for severe weather and road salt exposure. The 2012 model year introduced a number of notable improvements to the GMC Canyon lineup. Among the most significant was the addition of front bucket seats to midlevel trims like this SLE-2, enhancing comfort and separation for driver and passenger. The SLE-2 trim also brought upgrades such as fog lamps, tinted rear glass, and chrome interior accents, adding both visual appeal and practicality. Power comes from GMCs robust 3.7-liter inline-five engine, producing 242 horsepower and 242 lb-ft of torque, paired with a smooth-shifting four-speed automatic transmission. This engine provides confident acceleration and capability while retaining respectable fuel efficiency for its class. Thanks to its body-on-frame construction and rigid chassis, the Canyon delivers commendable road manners and off-road durability, absorbing imperfections with composure and exhibiting minimal cabin noise under typical driving conditions. Equipped with the factory $1,220 Z71 Off-Road Suspension Package High Stance, this Canyon is further enhanced for trail duty and rugged use. This package adds urethane jounce bumpers to reduce harsh bottoming on rough terrain and large wheel flares for added protection. The off-road capability is balanced by the Canyons practical proportions, which make it far more maneuverable than full-size trucksideal for tight urban environments or compact parking spaces. This particular truck is also optioned with the Power Convenience Package, which adds a host of desirable creature comforts including power windows, power door locks with lockout protection, remote keyless entry, outside power-adjustable mirrors, and an auto-dimming interior mirror with temperature and compass display. These additions elevate the usability and everyday functionality of the truck without compromising its rugged, utilitarian ethos. As a Crew Cab model, this Canyon offers four full-size doors for easy access to both front and rear seating areas, along with a conveniently sized 5-foot cargo bed that strikes a practical balance between utility and daily drivability. The cleverly engineered two-position tailgate can be fully lowered or locked at a 55-degree angle to align with the top of the wheel housings, making it ideal for supporting long, flat materials like drywall or plywoodan invaluable feature for anyone with practical hauling needs. With its unique combination of low mileage, one-owner history, desirable factory options, and durable design, this 2012 GMC Canyon SLE-2 stands out as a highly capable and rarely found compact pickup. It represents an appealing blend of function, usability, and rugged characteroffered here in a configuration that is both highly equipped and seldom seen on the market.
