GMC’s new runner looks surprisingly masculine, and meaty. It’s a vehicle I’d drive without shame. The whopping 700 lbs. diet is due in part to a significant shrinking of the SUV, both in terms of length and width, squarely placing it in the midsize crossover division.

Those weight savings grant you 28 mpg on the highway and an estimated 22 in the city, using the standard 2.5-liter motor. The burly 3.6-liter V-6 pushes 310 horsepower, which is perhaps irrelevant to its customer. It may, however, help convince dad that it’s a worthy investment—plus it’ll tow up to 4,000 lbs.
