Pulling back a bit from the Sirius-specific discussion is that I think a lot of us, myself included, would prefer to have some sort of satellite connectivity. Yes, as has been stated, the convenience of Sirius/XM is that it doesn't rely on cellular and therefore doesn't drop out. But going beyond that, and given the many discussions of car difficulties, having access to customer care or emergency support where ever you are is a nice comfort in my Jeep and Truck through Onstar. But out here in AZ, it's very easy to be someplace where you can't make a call (I'm thinking about
@dawktah LucidGT 's trip). Though I've never had to use Onstar, at least I know I have it. This just isn't the case with Lucid, and for me, I'd rather not have to hitch hike to cell service to get help.
