THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING.

This is my 1992 GMC Typhoon with 27,957 original miles.  This is one of the cleanest, most original Typhoons in the country, and it is no doubt one of the best-quality Typhoon trucks for sale in the country.

This Typhoon is a pristine, museum-quality collector's vehicle in totally stock, unmodified condition.  If you have been looking for that "perfect" Typhoon, this is the one. 

This is a two-owner vehicle since new, and this Typhoon has been owned by the same person for the past 20 years.  During that time, the car was always garaged and covered.  This truck has not seen rain, snow or salt in at least the last 20 years.

This is the proverbial "park it in the garage and rub it with a diaper" car.  You could not hope to find a cleaner, more original or better condition Typhoon anywhere.

The GMC Typhoon is a very rare ultra high-performance vehicle built by GM in the early 1990s.  This truck features the 4.3L V6 with a turbocharger plus AWD.  Horsepower was rated at 280 at the time, which was less than the actual output of over 300HP.  These Typhoons would go 0-60 in 5.3 seconds in an era when Ferraris couldn't even keep up. 

Only 4697 Typhoons were produced in total, for model years 1992 and 1993 only.  In 1992, only 345 of them were made in this color, Apple Red. 

Typhoons were luxurious as well as fast, and this one has leather seats, AWD, automatic transmission, A/C, factory AM/FM CD player, keyless entry plus power locks and windows. 

I have the original books and manuals for this Typhoon plus two sets of keys.

The paint and body are absolutely gorgeous.  The paint is all original and it is in superb condition with no oxidation or fading.  There is absolutely no body rust.  The paint and body are so superb, you can hardly believe this car is 20 years old.  The paint is glossy, shiny and there is no wear, sun-fade, nor any exterior faults of any significance.

The factory aluminum wheels are in beautiful condition, and the truck has the correct Firestone Firehawk SVX tires with good tread.

The interior of this Typhoon still has the new car smell- really.  The interior shows NO wear- the leather is superb, the carpets and upholstery look new and the entire interior looks like the day it was made.  This an impossibly gorgeous and clean interior.  All of the switches, controls and plastics are tight and still feel and look like they did when they were new. 

This Typhoon starts, runs and drives exactly how it should- which is just like new.  This truck is totally stock and not modified in any way.  It is exactly the way it was built by GM.  It runs and drives beautifully and if you wanted, there is no reason you couldn't drive this truck anywhere in the country.

The underside of this GMC is spotless- it is totally clean, solid and in beautiful condition. 

This is a superb, collector's quality example of a rare vehicle- this Typhoon will never be worth less than it is today, and it will always continue to appreciate in value. 

If you want to truly "nit-pick" a car this nice, here is what you will find: there are a few nearly imperceptible tiny dings on the side from "garage wear".  The driver's seat outside bolster foam is very slightly flattened.  And the left front plastic fender cladding is just the tiniest bit loose and vibrates slightly- this very minor vibration has worn the paint beneath the plastic trim.  These are exceedingly minor faults to find on a car this pristine. 

This Typhoon belongs in a GM museum or a private car collection.  This is just an amazing car in every respect.

Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra 4.3-liter EcoTec3 V6 nets 18 mpg city, 24 highway

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

There is no doubting that fuel economy has become an important factor in the highly competitive fullsize truck market, with the Ford F-150 EcoBoost V6 and Pentastar V6-powered Ram 1500 setting quite a precedent in recent years. Now it's General Motors' turn. The General has just announced that the new base V6 used in the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 models will return an EPA-estimated 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway in two-wheel drive trim, regardless of cab configuration.
While these figures don't go so far as to earn GM any "best-in-class" fuel economy claims (thanks to the 25-mpg Ram 1500 HFE), this new 4.3L EcoTec3 V6 does edge the F-150 and Toyota Tundra while boasting best-in-class numbers for torque, payload and towing capacity among six-cylinder rivals. This all-new engine produces 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque, and it gives the 2014 Silverado and Sierra the highest towing rating among standard V6 models with a 7,200-pound towing capacity - besting the Ram by 700 pounds, the base F-150 by 1,100 pounds and coming within 200 pounds of the V8-powered Nissan Titan. Scroll down for the official press releases from Chevrolet and GMC.

GM will no longer remove parts from trucks to calculate curb weights

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

Following last week's mild uproar after it was discovered that Ford and General Motors were removing some optional parts from their pickups to lower the curb weight and consequently increase the maximum payload, GM has come out and committed to a base curb weight for its upcoming Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon compact trucks (although it has yet to publish them) and its current Silverado and Sierra. The company will do the same for its heavy duty offerings, although those numbers have not been finalized yet.
"This will make our curb weight and payload specs more consistent with those of most other truck makers, making it easier for customers to compare vehicles," GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog in an emailed statement.
As GM notes - and as every manufacturer has noted since this story broke - customers still shouldn't take max payload ratings as gospel. Instead, they should refer to their truck's Tire and Load Label, like the one shown at the inset, which will offer detailed information on max payload, specific to their truck.
