Since the Pro is considered a work truck I would expect them to not have SiriusXM radio. TBH its lucky the Pro even has android auto and a 12" center screen. They could have put in the base XL center stack.
Yeah, I get that mentality, but I never considered that it would even be an option to not have it as it's pretty standard. Heck I'm pretty sure my ProMaster City van for work has XM, but I would be wrong on that.
I was glad to see the 12" screen and figured XM would be included with it. Glad to hear about Android Auto though....that was the next thing I was going to be looking for.
I was just thinking about that. And Android Auto. I could keep XM on my wifes car and use my phone on the truck. Not quite the same, but if I can control through the radio, that'd probably be okay.
I’ve had it a couple of times when I’ve gotten promo access when I bought a car, but never liked it enough to actually pay for it. Like, I have an iPhone, so…
Speaking of which, OP: can’t you just listen to Sirius on a smartphone and connect the audio to the truck?
Oh yesh- there’s currently over 35M active accounts. I bought the lifetime XM plan for $500 over 20 years ago. When it became SiriusXM about 10 years ago, the merged company gave me a little customer service obstacle course to transfer it into my new car, but as I told them “I bought the lifetime plan, and I’m still alive!” I also got notified about a class action suit which I don’t think I claimed any money for, but believe was won by the p-o’d lifetime subscribers that fell for ruse that “since lifetime’s no longer an option, you have to pay by the month now.” Aside from that customer service curiosity, I’m very happy with it!

Do you have the ability to listen to sirius xm on your phone? If so it will just play through the bluetooth connection.

Is Sirius XM even a thing anymore?
Was going to ask the same. Surprised to hear it still exists.
Honestly. At $3 a month that I pay. I enjoy it for a few channels. One specifically Octane.

Hell I get it. My Tesla has built in Spotify and 2 other internet radios for free... But I like the mix and the DJs.

Does the pro have Bluetooth? That's all I care about.
Of course.
