I like it. Bringing tabs to it will save time. They cleaned up the GUI a little and switched the picture/listings. Surprisingly they did good.

One thing I don't like, is that if you search 16068 on a truck for example, the results no longer filter the RPOs. They have a few kinks like that to work out in it... but all in all I have been using it exclusively the past few days and really like it.

They also ditched the alpha index. Not sure how I feel about that yet :(

One thing I'm struggling with is I miss my F keys. Not a big deal I guess but maybe the ability to program the F keys and I also like how you can now add your own price levels, but there isn't enough control about which prices show in the shopping list.

I punched in the last 8 for a 2013 ATS. The new catalog came up with the option for a 1983 s10, and it knew all the RPO codes for that 1983 s10.

So, what happens if GlobalConnect goes down, or we lose internet connection? The Chrysler division once had a Star Parts Lite disc subscription that we could at least look parts up on if the internet went down.

I thought they were just testing it via GlobalConnect right now? Assumed I'd still get discs for my 3 standalone units once the new catalog is officially up and running...

From what I understand, the discs we get in March will be the new catalog to load locally.

Anyone find vin decoding with the new catalog with the rpo list? There is a search for rpo but doesnt tell you what the vehicle has.
