After our last three Ultimate Overland Vehicle builds, a mid-sized truck was obviously the next choice. From coast to coast, mid-sized trucks from various makers are the platform of choice for those looking to build out an overland rig. You get the cargo capability that comes with a truck bed, the nimbleness of a smaller vehicle, and the flexibility to take the build in many directions.

While plenty of GMC trucks are built for adventure, with the introduction of the Canyon AT4X, GMC is redefining off-roading for mid-size trucks. With a bold new look, a totally redesigned interior, and a host of extreme off-roading hardware and innovative tech, the GMC Canyon AT4X was the perfect starting point for our mid-size Ultimate Overland Build.
