Wait what? We don't get all the XM channels?

Sure don't! There's channels in the 300 range, our head units only go up to 220? I can't recall off the top of my head. My honda went that high and our subaru as well. Disappointing really!

I signed up this morning as well. I have a Roku connected to my MVI 360 camera module and a headrest monitor for my daughter in the back so I can now stream unlimited Sesame Street and Cat in the Hat for her through the PBS kids app. As an FYI the connection can be throttled after 22GB.

I can not find anywhere on Onstar's website where they will throttle your data after 22GB. This is an Onstar account. All I see is "Unlimited data at 4G-LTE speed". Onstar does note that it is subject to AT&T Session Based Wireless Data Services Agreement available at http://www.att.com/USTermsandconditions. I read it and nowhere does it state that they will throttle the speed.

 

Somebody please correct me if I am missing something here.

Everybody throttles. Some guys just lie and say that they don't. But trust me, they do.

I signed up early Friday morning and there were issues with the site so I pushed the OnStar button and signed up by phone. The rep read the disclaimers and it was one of the things in the "fine print". I haven't seen it in writing but I expected it as that is how all the carrier's do it.

Now how do I figure out how to pay $20 a month for unlimited onstar and ditch my $60 a month home Internet bill?

That'd be nice!

I added this to my AT&T account great deal get it before its gone! Also you can merge your onstar data to your AT&T account if you have one.

 

Since its so new you will need to call OnStar and they will call AT&T to transfer the info... from the truck to AT&T.

Does anyone know if a hardware update exists out there? For instance if I got it from a newer truck if I could swap the 4G LTE equipment in? Everything I've read online says no, but I'm still getting used to owning a GM.

 

Thanks!

      Some Assembly is Required

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that?

      Future GMC Jimmy

      What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way to big should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crosing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...

      And overpriced. I was in the Oshawa Truck Plant when they were being built. Very few. I could count on one hand how many I've seen since
