Sat in a Canyon at the car show. It felt about the same size as my ten year old Silverado. Whereas the new Sivlerado, and every other truck, felt huge.
As for the new Tacoma, got in, felt like I was sitting on the floor with my legs straight out in front, got out in twenty seconds with no further interest. They build those for small people. The Canyon was the truck I would have gone home with if buying that day. But the price, as with all truck prices these days, was shocking.
Last year we were looking for a new vehicle. I'm an old geezer, with a bad back, 6' 3", wide shoulders and 240 lbs and have a bad knee, as a result of too much hockey (defenceman) when I was young. I need a big, wide seat with a lot of legroom. I tried a number of cars, Nissan, Toyota, Subaru, Ford, Jeep and GM.
Of all the vehicles tested, only the Ford Explorer, Jeep Cherokee and Chevy Impala (new style version) gave me the room I need.
A salesman at the Nissan dealer in fact, told me, that my best fit would be American vehicles.
