yea the dealership said "you also get 3 months of XM radio free, the accent has an XM radio built in" so i did the same thing and after the 3 months, i got a subscription... i pay 46 dollars every 3 months.... and you cant beat, the cosntant radio flow, no static, no hassle of that like a regular FM radio...which is also a reason why the touring (as i read as XM) is drawing my interest..
plus if you have ever listened to the clarity of the XM radio as compared to regular FM radio....XM is 120 percent clearer and fills the car more so.... if you then turn the radio to FM radio...... the FM then is 10 times louder, not as clear and static....
You cant beat driving say from maryland to texas, listening to the SAME station no matter where you go.... its top notch in my oppinion..
