My "factory" XM displays the artist & track text..even while moving. The text in other modes (CD or FM) is limited when you start moving. I don't listen to sports so I can't tell you about the scores.

I had good reception until I tinted the rear window. That's why I moved the antenna outside. I get great reception.

 

I had the dealer install Sirius in my TCH and the antenna is attached to the windsheild behind the passenger side of the rear view mirror. I haven't noticed any signal loss from this configuration. I've had 100% coverage except under overpasses and very heavy tree lined streets in CT(virtually no line of sight). I had an after market Sirius system installed in my other car about 3 years ago with the attenna mounted on the outside. I haven't noticed any difference in reception between the 2 installations.

 

While getting my after market XM removed from my trade-in at Circuit City I checked out Sirius radio and liked what I heard. So I called my dealer about an installation and was told that Toyota doesn't do Sirius units anymore because of recurring problems. I'm in Florida, is Toyota still installing Sirius in your area?
Sure would like to have the NFL.

The Toyota website still shows both Sirius and XM as accessory options. I'm getting the Terk XM Direct aftermarket unit installed Wednesday, and plan to just pay the $16.99 for the combined plan if the merger goes through. http://xmradio.mediaroom.com/index.p...ases&item=1472

 

I got my Sirius unit installed at the Toyota dealer in May 2007. Both XM and Sirius are options on the TCH and are still available. I prefer the built-in radio because I can use the steering wheel controls for the radio and there is no wiring and external radio hanging off the dash. I would call another dealer to verify.

 

I'm in the Daytona area and they both were offered to me last week.

I just called another dealer as you suggested and they said that the Sirius wasn't available for about two months but as of this week they are available again. He thought is was because of the merger but wasn't sure.
Thanks for the help.
