To each his own if it was offered now I'de think about it.
My feelings as well. The only thing I'd get from having a HUD would be the ability to say "I've got a HUD." If the HUD were some amazing technological marvel that could highlight turns I need to make, put giant floating arrows over requested destinations like gas stations or Chipotle Mexican Grills, and notify me whenever single women between the ages of 24 and 30 were checking out my car, THEN I'd want it.

By the way, if anybody tries to patent the giant-floating-HUD-arrow-over-Chipotle idea, I'm counting this as "prior art."
