    Question: HUD windshields with reflective coatings - repairable?

    C-6 VS. C-5

    The biggest difference without a doubt is how quiet the C6 is compared to C5. If I new this I would have traded sooner. Other advantages is the ride. I have a stick with F55 suspension. No more wind noise and water leaks. Plus the Nav. Life is good.

    leaky diff question for C4C5.

    some help on an alignment term

    Bio,I do alot of bussiness with this place that did the alignment so all I had to pay was a 25.00 tip to the alignment man but normal price there was 89.00.The best part was the print out he gave me of the before and after alignment. I think your man is alittle steep at over 200 bucks.
