Thanks, Men!
The HUD deal is very cool...once you have it, it's hard to go back to staring at the gauges. GM copped it from Hughes Aerospace when they owned them for awhile; I think it was a dumbed down version from the
jet fighter deal.

The Vette HUD allows for some customization: mine shows speed, rpms shift pt as in Red Line, and oil pressure, (those lil' boxes on side next to oil lamp.) But, other data can be put in lieu of some of the stuff.

The OBC is very, very well done: it's the pixel read out that shows 31 mpg in that pic.
I can punch up several menus with families of data readouts in that pixel display area, eg:
-Trip: full odo, trip A & B odo, avg speed, trip ET, oil life "quality".
-Fuel: mpg since reset, instant mpg, and range at current usage.
-Gauges: oil press., oil temp, coolant temp, batt volts, front tire press. L & R, rear tire press L & R, (real time), etc.

Metric or English...

Pretty well done and informative for a Chebby, imo.

Thanks for looking!
