sat radio

Do all of the new F150's come with sirius radio installed? My salesman said they did when I asked him because I didn't see the antenna on the roof.

Not all models have it, no.

OK then; have him prove it. Just get in the truck on the lot and turn on the radio.

You will NOT have SIRIUS unless it is so noted on the window sticker or invoice, or the dealer added the tuner and antenna themselves as a dealer add on.

Check the window sticker. It's an option and will say so. Sat radio uses the roof antenna.

Holy Snikies Batman, I got duped... OR the XLT has more of a refined radio system than my Platinum.

Mine also has a little "Sirius" sticker on the driver and, I believe, passenger door glasses.

I thought it would have the roof antenna. I guess I will have to put him on the spot. Thanks for all the responses

It does, look at my picture and you can see the puck. I agree about the Ipod and Sync as that is what I will do after the 6 months trial is over.

Yea. I don't use mine at all with the iPod. My truck doesn't have Sync, but my car does. Satellite sounds like crap.

Is that a plop or a splat? Seriously though, are you referring to the quality of the sound or the programming?

Sound quality...and some of the programming. Martha Stewart? All Elvis? Oprah? And especially Howard (yes, I'm still around) Stern.
