SOLUTION: Moving object order in a collection in C#

Here's how I decided to do it:

Instead of using an Order field, I use the following code in the 
MoveUp and MoveDown methods:

public void MoveDown(CarPref carPref)
{
        CarPref carCopy = new CarPref(carPref.Model, carPref.Make);
        List.Insert(List.IndexOf(carPref)+2, carCopy );
        List.Remove(carPref);
}
public void MoveUp(CarPref carPref)
{
        CarPref carCopy = new CarPref(carPref.Model, carPref.Make);
        List.Insert(List.IndexOf(carPref)-1, carCopy );
        List.Remove(carPref);
}

I haven't tested it yet, but it looks like it'll work.  I'll report 
back once I have it running, just in case anyone else is interested.
