The expeditions don’t have HUD???

Well, strike that from the list lol. HUD’s are available on $20k nissans these days.
Nope. Ford may list a HUD but it’s only for the collision avoidance system... a bright red seizure inducing flashing light. The Navigator has a full functioning HUD.

That’s a really weird choose. I can’t imagine not having HUD in this day and age.

Some how I have made it 39 years without a HUD. Hell, I haven't even had working gauges most of that time. I'm just thrilled to know how much gas I have and how fast I am going.

Yeah it kind of sucks but it’s something I can live without.

Have you ever lived with it though?

I had the same attitude years ago and then bought my first vehicle with it. As silly as it sounds I can’t imagine having to look down to see how fast I’m going or what song is playing, what the speed limit is etc.

This has been my experience as well. Possibly my favorite feature.

I have had both. First HUD was an Olds Trofeo.
I don't look at speedo or radio that often so I don't need a HUD.
They kind of bother me like a shiny dash does reflecting on windshield or what a truck back window does on short cab truck.
Freaks my eyes out more than I like it.

HUDs have improved dramatically since the Olds Trofeo.....

It was the first, not the only. I just don't like to use them. I think they are neat but I find them more annoying than helpful since I don't look at the info they provide much anyway.
But I am also the guy that hates so much of the included price raising "features" on newer vehicles.
They are cars or trucks to me and not rest areas. Not living rooms, man caves, entertainment centers, self driving/parking, surroundings aware, adaptive, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc , etc, etc......this is how much they annoy me.
Sure most love it ans eat it up.
I just want a nice new shiny rust free perfect running car that has a track record of going 225k+ with no engine repairs whatsoever, with a key and keyfob AND door keypad, ac, cruise, a radio, delay wipers, power windows and locks.
That's all I want...so about a brand new 1992 would do me. But I prefer the newer end and like most to at least 2002- maybe 2008 and newer on some. But most of the newer ones, I simply don't want.
I don't even need power seats but power windows and locks are a must.
