Default Satellite radio

Just curious - any of you have satellite radio (XMSR or Sirius) put in
your vehicles yet? How do you like it? Ease of operation? Drop outs?
Customer service? Programming? Glad you got it?

I had a Delphi SkiFi XM unit in my car. Installation was moderate, signal quality was always good and tech support was good as well. It was stolen so I purchased an XM tuner designed for my head unit (Pioneer Premier), due to improper install by a local car stereo shop it died within 5 days and is off being repaird, and I really, REALLY miss it..

depends on the channel, a lot of them don't have any commerecials. It was'nt enough for me to think "man, this is too many commercials for $9.95 a month"

i've had xm in my car since january, pionner model hooked into the aux of my clarion with the display mounted between the center courtasy lights. Love xm quality is as good as they say it is, and as for reception its never gone out longer than a few seconds, if your in a long tunnel or out in the sticks somewhere, though it never when out driving backroads from NH to maine As for commercials your lucky to catch 1 or 2 an hour if u keep it on the same station. Only thing i don't like about the pionneer is its limited to only 8 character display. The skifi is nice since it shows u everything.
