When I bought my truck, it came with 6 month free Sirius... Think I used it for maybe an hour total...
Won't work in the garage.
Go under overpasses and it cuts out.
Plug in my usb ipod with around 1900 of my favorite songs on it and I'm good..
I add to the ipod song list all the time, so it's ever growing.:)
Anyway, I wish the truck had HD radio.. I'd give up the cd player and Sirius button for HD radio in a heartbeat..

HD isn't all it's cracked up to be either. It takes a clear, un-phase distorted shot to the transmitter for HD to hang in, otherwise it will endlessly wander back and forth between the digital carriers and the considerably stronger analog carrier.
Also, Sirius/XM has LOTS of terrestrial transmitter in most of the metro areas around the country. I drive through tunnels and completely shaded parking structures all the time and never lose Sirius.
And yes, Sat radio quality really sucks. I listen to news, comedy channels, and 60's music that isn't great to begin with. For those it's great
