This is a 1993 GMC Typhoon with aprox 88,500 original miles. The truck is now painted black but was a apple red with silver cladding. The cladding is missing but now has wheel well moldings on it. The wheels are 20 inch after market with tire in very good condition. They don't seem to be very old at all. The engine is a 4.3 turbo charged with a water to air intercooler system that came from the factory. The truck does need a few things. The truck runs and drives very good and hold good oil pressure around 40-60 pounds. The front seats do have cracks in them and the passanger bottom thread is missing along the seem. The center console used some work, I believe one hinge is broken. The steering wheel is a aftermarket grant with a horn button located under the dash. The stereo is a cd player that made by alpine. There are some gauges inside the truck. The water temp on the pillar is hooked up and the one of the dash is not. I have the sending unit and is easy to switch it back. The oil pressure works on the dash and not the pillar gauge. The carpet behind the front driver seat needs some work and there is a picture posted. The back seat seems to be in really good condition. The power windows and door looks work great. The windows are all tinted including the windshield but the tint on the front to windows need redone. Now to the drivetrain. The engine does have some small oil leaks and what not and I notice the drive side valve cover is the worse of them which is very common for these 4.3 engines. The factory boost controller is current in need of being replaced and is by passed so the truck will only make about 8 pounds of boost right now. I had a manual one from another project on it and the turbo will spool up to the factory boost of around 14 with no problems. The factory control is a electronic unit. The transmission shifts great and a shift kit as be install. Nice firm quick shifts with no slipping. When it cold it is a little hard from 1st to 2nd but this is a normal condition for these trucks. The truck is lower a little more than factory but I had is aligned last week with no problems and od have the paperwork showing so. The front brakes and new pads, calipers, and hoses on both sides. Just passed Delaware inspection for everything but the window tint which we are not along to have here in this state and have the paper working show this as well. Delaware does have emissions and it passed on that as well. The body is pretty good but the drivers door does need door pins. There is a little rust at the bottom of both front doors and the tailgate. The cab itself is rust free in, out and under. The hood is a 2.5 inch aftermarket cowl with a finished under side. All the lights work on the truck as well. Every once in a while the anti lock brake like with come on, probably needs a wheel speed sensor. The is a small dent in tailgate buy the typhoon logo on the tailgate. The roll pan paint is a flat black and does not match the rest of the truck very well. Kind of goes with the front bumper finish. I bought this truck a few weeks ago but have released I don't have time for all the projects I have or I would not be selling this. This is a very fun truck to drive. If you have any questions or would like to see this truck please contact me on my cell 302 632 7341, chris. I will ship this truck but the buying will be resopncible for paying for this and setting up and shipper. Truck currently has a Maryland title that is clear and clean. The title shows 54,555 miles on 12/13/07. I have tried ot state everything I know but there may be something I missed and please understand this a 1993 truck and is 20 years old. These are very rare and if was restored to it orginal color there were only 101 in the color available in 1993. There was less than 5000 ever made.
***Just noticed on the vechile report that his truck has 100,000 more than I thought. The auto check shows that when is went from 145,000 to 147,000 they forgot the add the 1 in front of 47. With that in mind I thought the truck has 88,500 but it really has 188,500.******

2016 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate wants to take even more off the top
Tue, Nov 17 2015What do you do when getting to the top of Denali isn't enough? You create a higher peak called Denali Ultimate. That's what GMC has done with the 2016 Sierra, the new Sierra Denali Ultimate adding even more content and showing off the truck's refreshed face and new Denali grille. The reasoning behind this truck is perfectly sane. GMC says that in 2013 it had zero percent of the premium light-duty truck market; since that time, the brand says the segment (with an average transaction price beyond $55,000) has grown by a factor of ten, and the Sierra Denali has given GMC a 15.5-percent share. When it goes on sale in in the first quarter of next year, it can be optioned on the four-wheel drive 1500 Crew Cab with either the five-foot-eight or six-foot-six-inch bed. Standard equipment includes a sunroof, Lane Keep Assist, automatic headlights, Tri-Mode Power Steps, chrome tow hooks, and 22-inch wheels. The press release below has more. GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate: The Pinnacle of Premium Unique 22-inch wheels, expanded package of standard content drives exclusivity DETROIT, Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2015 – GMC is taking the range-topping style, craftsmanship and capability of the Sierra Denali even higher with the 2016 Sierra Denali Ultimate. It builds on the Sierra Denali's already class-leading attributes with a package of precision-crafted features designed to elevate its comfort, design and capability in the growing premium niche of the full-size truck market. GMC introduces the Sierra Denali Ultimate today, ahead of its public debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. It goes on sale late in the first quarter of 2016. "The Sierra Denali has helped drive the growth of premium portion of the light-duty crew cab segment," said Duncan Aldred, vice president of GMC Sales and Marketing. "This truck is the ultimate expression of the Sierra Denali with greater emphasis on the bold and refined presence and advanced features that make Denali models synonymous with precision and exclusivity." Thanks in large part to Sierra Denali, which was redesigned in 2014, GMC commands 15.5 percent of the premium full-size truck segment, where average transaction prices exceed $55,000. The segment has nearly doubled in 2015 and grown tenfold since 2013, when GMC had zero percent of the market. In fact, Sierra Denali has helped GMC earn a higher share of the premium portion of the light-duty crew cab segment than of the overall full-size pickup segment.
Google Earth helps sheriff's department find stolen car [w/video]
Sun, 29 Sep 2013A stolen-vehicle case opened back in March was recently solved with the help of a property owner using Google Earth, a virtual globe and mapping service similar to Google Maps, ABC News reports. The man, who remains anonymous, found the stolen GMC Yukon while he was surveying his property in George County, Mississippi, using the map service and, judging by the top-down satellite image, thought he found a "shooting house" on his hunting grounds.
When he drove out to the suspicious structure, he realized it actually was a sport utility vehicle wedged in thick brush about 70 yards from the nearest road, so he called the police.
Law enforcement officers had arrested a female suspect in the case earlier based on eyewitness accounts, but didn't prosecute her because the stolen SUV hadn't been found. Ben Brown, a lieutenant detective with the George County Sheriff's Department, says that he ran the plates and confirmed the SUV was the stolen vehicle the department had been looking for.
Cadillac Celestiq, Lyriq, Hummer, other future GM electric cars: Here's everything we saw at ‘EV Day’
Wed, Mar 4 2020WARREN, Mich. — Today, General Motors held an “EV Day” event at its Warren, Michigan, campus to present its new “Ultium” battery technology, modular electric vehicle architecture and soon-to-come electric vehicles. Unfortunately, we were forbidden from bringing cameras into the event, so while we canÂ’t show you what we saw, we can tell you more about it. While we saw the previously teased Cadillac EV (which we now know to be called the Lyriq) and the GMC Hummer pickup teased during the Super Bowl, there were a number of other future cars at the event, which GM President Mark Reuss assured us are all real vehicles in the works. The biggest surprise came at the end of the event, though, in the Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan, which Reuss described as a future flagship that would be hand-built “very locally.” It had been hiding under a dark sheet all morning, with the front and rear illuminated Cadillac emblems shining from underneath. When the wraps came off, we saw a long, white, four-seat fastback sedan. The 23-inch wheels were pushed out to the very corners of the car, giving it what appeared to be a very long wheelbase. The model on the stage had no side mirrors or visible door handles. The grille mirrored that of the Lyriq crossover next to it, with integrated lighting in lieu of the usual mesh or slats youÂ’d see in an internal combustion car. The entire roof, all the way until it tapered to the tail of the vehicle, was tinted glass. In back, vertical tail lighting ran down the C-pillar before turning rearward across the top of the trunk. Inside, everything below the beltline of the windows — essentially all but the headrests and top portion of the steering wheel, was hidden from view. Behind the Celestiq, a large digital display showed a rendering of its interior. The dash consists of a pillar-to-pillar curved LED display serving as both instrument panel and infotainment system. Protruding forward between the front seats was another touchscreen that appeared to house some more controls, with open area, probably for storage, below it. The rear seats had the same sort of touchscreen between them. Built into the back of the front seats were a pair of rear-seat entertainment screens, much like we saw in the Lyriq. The door panels blended wood, metal and animated lighting to give character and a sense of opulence. GM interior design manager Tristan Murphy was on hand to tell us a bit more about the Celestiq.
