1992 GMC Typhoon review from North America
"The best GM vehicle ever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've only had one problem with my Ty since I got it. The ECU shorted out and I had to get a new one.
The Alternator had to be replaced too, but that's to be expected it's 12 years old.
General comments?
The Typhoon, even though built only in 92 and 93 is still to date one of the fastest production vehicles ever made. Definately the fastest SUV. I live in Alaska and most people drive trucks here and they all think their truck is the fastest thing on the road. That is until they get a taste of the typhoon. It's a total sleeper 98% of people have no idea what it is until I explain it to em. This thing is a blast to drive and a joy to own. If you get a chance I definitely recommend buying one. It's nice knowing you can pretty much smoke anything on the road.
