This may be true.. But I am a master electrician and can always find THHN-2/THWN in any gauge and any color I need in the scrap box at work.
And the price is FREE!!
Have not ever had a problem using it on autos or tractors.
I will check out the GXL so I will know about it.
Update---
THHN has a thicker insulation and a gasoline /oil resistant jacket but is rated at 90*C dry
GXL is auto spec for Ford,GM and Chrysler and has a higher 125*C temp rating
Actual conductive Wire is dimensionally the same with the same stranding.
Difference is in the insulation jacket
