GMC
This is the catalogue record of the GX-2, one of 28 models GMC has placed in the historical record and one of more than seventeen thousand cars the MotorJury library tracks.
The record does not fix a firm introduction year for the GX-2, which is itself informative: cars without a clean launch date are usually prototypes, coachbuilt specials, or models whose history was written down long after the fact. The catalogue keeps them anyway, because the odd corners of the record are where the interesting machines hide.
On paper, the GX-2 reads like this: the record lists its engine as 2x 7.0L (281 ci) GM 6-71 I6 Diesel / 426 cuin; kerb weight is recorded at 26,100 -; drive goes through 1x 4-speed manual + 2-speed clutch. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.
Within GMC's own catalogue the GX-2 sits alongside the GMC Canyon, the GMC Sierra EV, the Mr. T's custom 1982 GMC minivan, the GMC Acadia. The record names the Greyhound GX-1 as its predecessor and the PD-4501 Scenicruiser as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Design is credited to Albert Boca. Assembly is recorded at GMC Truck and Coach Division, Pontiac, Michigan.
This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.
Most car databases stop at series production. This one deliberately does not, because concept cars, racing specials and cancelled prototypes are where the industry thinks out loud — the ideas tested in public years before they reach a showroom. Holding them beside the production cars they inspired makes the lineage legible: nearly every landmark road car in this library has a concept ancestor somewhere in the catalogue, and the connections run through the era links on every page.
Some pages in this library brim with specifications; others, like corners of every archive, are thin. The honest response to a thin record is to say so, not to pad it. What is shown here is exactly what the public record supports today — and because the harvest re-runs nightly, the page you are reading is the fullest version of this car's open record that existed the last time the site was built.
The catalogue records what the GX-2 was; the ownership database records what it is like to own. MotorJury computes a verdict for every model year the United States federal record covers — complaints, recalls, real economy — refreshed nightly, with no opinions involved. If this car reached the American market, its verdicts are in there.
Specifications come from the Wikipedia infobox for this model (CC BY-SA) and the open Wikidata record, and are shown only where a source actually carries them — nothing here is estimated. Figures are manufacturer specifications, not measured results.
