XMSR with GM gives the first 3 months free.......

Not surprising a dealer would use the subscription as an incentive.......less than $300 incentive. Smart.

Thnx for the info,

Mike

Countrybob,

Do you have any idea who actually pays for the service? Is it Ford? Is it SIRI? Combination?

Dave

David: Any idea of the earnings dates for SIRI and XM? Also, something that caught my attention. A local Ford/Linc/Merc dealer is offering Sirius sat radio with a 2 year subscription for $1 with the purchase of any new vehicle. It'll be interesting to see if the sales gimmick pays off and if their competition will have to match the offer.

SIRI usually announces toward the end of the first month of the quarter; XM usually during the 2nd month.

I think we'll see lots of deals like this Ford dealer is offering; it totally makes sense. I bought a new FX-35 not long ago and the dealer threw in an XM to close the deal.
