Just found out Onstart now charges $15 a month for it. soo my kids get it for free and I have to pay-brutal. I will just pay for 3 months a year but ………….GM is always giving us less. New powertrain warranty is less miles (km here) Onstar and xm radio used to be 6 month trial now 1-3 months. sigh, maybe get a ford

It is a shame and understood. You bit the bullet and give into modern ways and the whole time your wishing you would have kept the old. Kind of a bummer. This is why I have not purchased any more new cars. Last was 2013 and everything else has been unappealing. They used to sell cars with cool features like spare tires, passengers side mirror and other usable features. Now they just add computer stuff and satellite and think it justifies the price. The auto industry is not what it once was and I don't care for the direction it is going.
Good luck with your new Ford.
