I am still on the fence. Just got the $77/year offer in the mail. It's my birthday coming up and Mrs G offered to get it for me for my birthday.

I've been having issues with my USB and iPhone hooked up to the car... so not sure if I should go ahead with the XM or not.

Shadowshawn · 11-01-2010, 08:14 PM

nahh I never used it when I had it either. Im fine with good old FM or just my ipod.

Entaille · 11-01-2010, 08:16 PM

XM is worth maybe 5$ a month to me, and they aren't going to offer that sort of deal fulltime with no strings attached, so I'd rather not have it entirely.

XM and loving it!!!!!!!!! renewed and can't live w/ out it.

Wolverine1 · 11-01-2010, 08:30 PM

I love my XM! Octane has new music months before the local FM stations start playing it. NHL Home Ice is great!!!
I can listen to Red Wings games uninterrupted for the whole drive to my cottage.

Memphis SS · 11-01-2010, 09:03 PM

I kept it on my Tahoe when I had it but not on the SS. Since it is a weekend car and only get it out every now and then I didn't see the need for it.

spurscar · 11-01-2010, 09:07 PM

Lifetime is really $599 for XM? Was $399 at one point which makes a whole lot more sense than $599 - really have to keep the car a long time to get the yearly cost to be a good deal now.

gotroost · 11-01-2010, 09:28 PM

I paid $460 for lifetime last February. I live in radio hell so it was a deal for me. I also hate the Steve Jobs/Apple Cartel, so this was an option for some variety.

dianeokie · 11-01-2010, 09:43 PM

If you only listen to music on XM, I understand. College football coverage is great, and I like the variety of music you can get. Plus lots of public radio, I use XM a lot on my Equinox. And I rarely hear commercials....

NO WAY JOSE !!!!
