I loved it for book radio. Heard some great books. They did away with it. Now I listen to radio classics. However, won't renew in the future. I would rather spend the money on quilting supplies.

I have a 2012 Kia Soul that also came with satellite radio. I love it. I have had no trouble with it. Reception is fine whether I am driving in the city or on rural roads.

Just this week, we renewed for a year at a little over $11/mon. for music only. No talk radio. I think we get about 80 stations. Love it.

We just bought a new Ford Fusion. We have Sirius radio in it because it is free for a few months. My Escape that we bought last year had Sirius free for 6 months. We didn't renew because Sirius discontinued MLB. We like to listen to the Royals baseball games. We have a USB port in the console. We load our favorite music onto a flash drive and play mp3's. We get to choose what we want to hear and there are no commercials.

I love my Sirius -it does stop in the garage because it's not getting a signal. Driving in my area there is no fading. I guess the only thing I kinda miss is the weather, if some storm is heading in I would like to know about it.

I have it but don't use it. I renewed once after the trial period but for me its not worth it. When I'm in my local area I listen to local channels to know what's happening. My car has a hard drive so I've put all of my CDs on it so when I'm in an area with poor reception I put it on. The traffic update to me isn't worth it because it only shows what's been reported so most of the time when I was stuck in traffic it didn't show what was going on. I could pull up the 5 day forcast but I can do that on my cell phone. Without it I can still do the POI and use the GPS so for me it was a waste of money.

Check your Fusion, I have the 2010 and it has a hard drive where I loaded all of my CD's in it and can access it anytime and my CD's stay at home. I love that about it. If I'm waiting in the car for something and my car is in park I can also watch TV, my grandkids love that.
