For anyone else considering XM but doesn't want to fork out the money for a $900 factory install: The Roady2 is $29 right now. No installation. We have it in our Escape. Attached the unit right below the radio. Plugged power supply into the switched cigarette lighter so it turns on and off with the truck. And, before I ran the antenna under the trim and out the back window, the XM worked just fine with the antenna sitting in the middle of the dash board. It was just secured with a zip tie to the defroster vent.
The best part? If you decide to switch vehicles later (trading in, selling, or just using a different car for a road trip) the XM can be moved to the other vehicle in a matter of minutes!
And, if you park the vehicle close enough to your home stereo, you can pipe in XM music to your house! Or, office.
