I have a one year old Sony XM1 unit and XM antenna that I had in my el camino for one year. I have decided to cancel my XM service and sell my XM unit and antenna. I payed over $330 for this and am selling it for $200. It's all in 100% working order. If your interested in it let me know. Thanks... It will be going on ebay in a couple of weeks if I don't sell it here....

I love XM my suburban came with it and i loved it so much we got one for our other car....and if you pay for 3 years ahead you get a pretty good discount ....its like 6.99 a month I want to put it in my boat but the stereo that my Sea Ray came with has Sirus and i dont want another bill ....Looking to find a dealer who will install the XM antenna well good luck mike selling it but i understand . But for us driving from Oceanside it is the best........

That's what they make CD's for. I think that XM is pretty cool stuff, but my CD player works just fine and I always carry 100+ CD's with me so there's never a lack of tunes and I can play whatever I want to hear. Just can't see spending $$ monthly on a service that I'd probably never use anyway.

yes I agree too! I was all gunghoe about this XM radio when I first came out and just had to have it. But tired of it now and don't like paying the 10 bucks each month for something I don't even use... :stupid

I might be interested in it.... I was already thinking of a sony head unit and that XM setup to go with it.... I drive 200+ miles per day doing home inspections. The only reservation I have is, the pros and cons of XM versus Sirus (dunno which is best) plus I am debating if I should do an install version like this or go for the portable unit with fm transmitter so I can move it from car to car.... What's everyone's input??

The big difference used to be that Sirius had all commercial free music. XM used to pipe in some of their music from broadcast stations. That's the biggest reason I went with Sirius.

A couple months ago, XM went all commercial free with the music, much as Sirius does. Each has their own DJ's for each station.

I believe Sirius still charges a few $$ more a month, but I've talked to people that have had reception problem in some part of the country with XM. Sirius is all satalite, while XM has some terrestrial repeaters to fill in the blank spots. Something about XM's satalites at a different inclination, they are closer to the horizon.

I've got the FM modulator, simply because my unit (hehe, I said unit) get's moved from vehicle to vehicle. Hard wired units have to have a different subscription for each reciever, so multiple cars would require multiple units. Sirius offers family plans with discounts for each additional reciever.

You can pay monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual, or multiple years for Sirius, with price breaks the more you pay in advance. I'm on quarterly, billed through my visa.

Thanks for the info. I have a civic that I drive around for my inspection job all day everyday, but then we have a f150 for our river runs and so forth.... Sounds like the portable unit might be the way to go.... still thinkin' about it though...

XM is cool, over 100 channels and even some are commercial free. I haven't sold it yet.
