Test drive: 2021 GMC Canyon AT4
Fox News Autos Editor Gary Gastelu says the 2021 GMC Canyon AT4 is the most off-road-capable version of the midsize pickup.
It's a mobile home … base.
The Overland Expo West off-road equipment show has created a custom GMC Sierra to showcase parts and accessories from over 20 companies.
The truck is based on the new Sierra AT4X, which features a high performance suspension and is powered by a 420 hp 6.2-liter V8.
The pickup has had its factory bed removed and replaced with a custom storage tray from MITS and a deployable awning attached to the roof.

The tray has a drawer and side bins, one of which holds a Dometic refrigerator that's powered by a battery pack that gets charged from a roof-mounted solar panel.
