Default What else is there?

Today I was driving along and on the HUD got a notice my turn signal had been left on. Awesome feature I thought. Are there other nifty messages like this you guys have seen?

you can set it up to give you speed warnings if you want, I don't because the dang thing went off ALL the time also the song info is displayed if you manually change the tune.

Low fuel warnings if you let the tank get too low.

The owners manual has an entire section called "Vehicle Messages" and it is only a partial list.

Would be nice to know that and even better if they would have been included in the owner's manual.

It would have been nice if they would just include actual turn signal lights in the HUD. I seem to recall my C5 HUD having that...

It looks like those messages are for the DIC not the HUD. There is a reference in the HUD section labeled "Vehicle Alerts" on page 5-33. I think that's what I saw RE: turn signals. It also says not all "alerts" are displayed on the HUD. Clear as mud...

Point taken. Between reading the message and clicking reply, my brain must have gotten hung up on "messages" and forgot the "hud" part
