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.******

OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles
Thu, 06 Jun 2013As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.

2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition goes dark, looks good
Fri, 19 Sep 2014Forget about the so-called sporty Chevrolet Silverado Rally Edition. If you want a General Motors pickup with some added style, this one looks like a more cohesive, well-done package to our eyes (though it's also not "sporty," despite GM using that term over and over again). It's called the GMC Sierra Elevation Edition, and it hits dealerships later this year.
For its more stylish truck, GMC has fitted the 2015 Sierra Double Cab with a body-colored grille surround, door handles, mirror caps, side moldings and bumpers. The truck also rides on black 20-inch aluminum wheels.
The Elevation Edition, which GMC contends qualifies as a sport truck, comes standard with the Sierra's 285-horsepower, 4.3-liter V6, though buyers can opt for the more powerful 5.3-liter V8 with 355 hp. Other standard goodies include OnStar with 4G LTE connectivity and Bluetooth, all housed in the 4.2-inch Intellilink color display.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
