    Yes, I'm in the automotive field. Mostly chassis, drivetrain components and suspensions for racing and aftermarket.

    Kenworth and Peterbilt both use Pro/E. DANA, RedDot and other companies that deal with PACCAR also use Pro/E.

    I have a small aftermarket automotive parts business. I use Pro/E.

    Hi ,Bhargava I have not found material in Pro/E directly on advanced auto surfacing because it involves lot of tricks/experience (washout fillet,3d curve etc..)

    the E learning library of Pro/E is good but few things of automotive surfacing is mentioned in book Solidworks surfacing and complex shape modeling Bible by matt lombard (wiley publishers)
