Wilcoxson GMC – Is the 2025 GMC Canyon AT4X Package Right for Weekend Trails around Pueblo, CO?
Colorado’s trail networks ask a lot from any mid-size truck, and that is exactly where the AT4X Package on the 2025 GMC Canyon shines. If your weekends include rutted forest service roads, rocky ledges, and sandy washes, the AT4X hardware stack is built to help you drive through, not around, the obstacles.
This package builds on the Canyon’s strong foundation with a 3-inch factory lift, 33-inch mud-terrain tires, front and rear electronic locking differentials, and race-proven Multimatic DSSV dampers. Together, these upgrades enhance breakover clearance, help maintain traction when one or more wheels lift, and absorb hard hits without beating you up in the cabin. Add Baja mode within the Drive Mode Selector, and the throttle, transmission shifts, and traction control adapt for faster, more controlled off-road travel.
- Ground Clearance: Factory 3-inch lift yields better approach, breakover, and departure angles
- Traction Tech: Front and rear e-lockers to help pull through cross-axle obstacles
- Suspension: Multimatic DSSV dampers deliver precision control and impressive composure
- Tire Fitment: 33-inch MT tires for bite in loose, muddy, and rocky conditions
- Camera Views: Available underbody camera helps you see obstacles before contact
How does this translate to real-world confidence around Pueblo’s trailheads? The 3-inch lift helps prevent belly strikes on ledges and water bars, while the e-lockers add the traction you need when the trail gets off-camber, or you find yourself lifting a wheel. The Multimatic DSSV dampers smooth out repeated hits, so you remain in control through whoops and embedded rocks. And when you drop into a technical section, the available underbody camera view can reveal what is lurking just over the crest.
On weekdays, the AT4X Package still feels civilized. The 11.3-inch center touchscreen and digital Driver Information Center keep you informed and connected, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto streamline your routine, and available HD Surround Vision helps you slide into tight spaces downtown. When the weekend returns, switch to Terrain or Off-Road mode and roll out with the assurance that the hardware is ready when the trail gets tougher than expected.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Does the AT4X Package change maximum towing?
The Canyon lineup offers up to 7,700 lbs of max towing when properly equipped. Tire and suspension choices can influence real-world towing setups, so review your configuration and payload needs before you hitch up heavy equipment or a larger trailer.
How do the electronic locking differentials help off-road?
E-lockers can mechanically lock the left and right wheels on an axle so they rotate at the same speed, which helps maintain forward motion when a wheel lifts or traction varies dramatically side to sid dramaticallye.
Are the underbody cameras standard with AT4X?
Underbody camera views are available as part of the broader camera suite. Many shoppers pair them with HD Surround Vision for maximum visibility when navigating technical terrain and tight staging areas.
