When you get behind the wheel of a new designed Sport Trac, you are going to get the feeling that you are sitting in a Ford Explorer SUV until you turn around to check the back seat. The Sport Trac is essentially the Explorer with the rear cut off and a pick up truck bed added. Ford calls this configuration a Sport Utility Truck.

General Motors has been engineering and building profession grade trucks for a long time now and they claim that everything they have learned in that time has gone into the 2007 GMC Canyon. The Canyon is available in 2 different models, 3 cab configurations, and you can match that up with one of GMC’s standard colors. The two new engines available are both new for 2007. One is a 185 horsepower 2.9 liter I4, and the other a 242 horsepower 3.7 liter I5. Both engines have more displacement, more power, and more torque than is available in any other truck in its class.
