Default HUD options

On the 2015 can the turn signals be displayed on the heads up display?
I'm sure they did on my 2005 and I can't find it on the 2015.

There is a blinker Chime:

I haven't heard it, or had to use it, because I don't leave my blinker on?

Not really. I don't see the advantage to having it shown on the HUD as when they're on, your peripheral vision should be adequate to see the indicator in the DIC

At least in my car, the turn indicators are not in my peripheral vision rather they are behind the steering wheel thus hard to see.

And by your logic, why have the MPH in the HUD? I mean you can see the speedometer in the DIC too as well as on the left-hand side. Shouldn't MPH in HUB be unnecessary and overkill? Again, not a very well thought out answer...

Where the F did you get that?!? I didn't say it at all. You saying "well it sounds like" is just your incorrect stuffing of words into my mouth that you are attempting to justify by saying it sounds like?!? I didn't say there was no indication. I said I thought it dumb for GM to removed it from the HUD when it was there before. It was helpful. And the turn indicators in my car get hidden by the steering wheel.

So then theoretically you don't know what we are talking about let alone if we are debating anything...
