Car and Driver: Would you rather? Gladiator vs GMC Canyon

[ShadowsPapa]

The 3.6 is merely adequate for daily driving a minimal towing. Towing anything over 4,000lbs is an exercise in frustration and a screaming engine.

I tow 5,000 pounds, hilly roads and highways, no problem. The engine is SUPPOSED to scream. They don't even open the valves fully until 3,000 RPM.

Drive a 1/2 ton Silverado with an LS and watch that baby kick up to 5,000 RPM on the same hills my JT does at a lower RPM.
It's modern gas engines. HP through RPM.
