Sirus XM is it a trail or full subscription?

I bought a 2025 Big Horn in Jan. I know when I buy Fords it states Sirus XM 3 month trial. I do not see that on the window sticker that came with my truck. So I figure I would ask here. Is it a 3 month trial, or is it permanent?

Doesn't matter either way just sitting here drinking coffee and thinking, which I know is hard to believe that I am thinking.

Thanks

I'm going to lay money on it that it's going to be a three month or a 6 month trial. I've never seen more than that with any vehicle. Well technically that's not true, when I bought my Jeep renegade trailhawk, it had a 3-month trial included and when I called them telling them I wanted to switch it over to my lifetime subscription from my portable radio they offered to give me one year free on my Jeep instead of the trial. I refuse that saying I don't want a one year, I want my lifetime subscription added to the radio. They finally did that after some arguing over a charge for transferring a subscription..

Three month trial and not even worth messing with. Whatever you do, do not give them a credit card number.

It's 3 months. We have it in all our vehicles and love it. Just be smart about it and the cost is minimal. We only pay ~$120 a year for ours.

I just changed my subscription and its $8.77 per month including fees and taxes. But I F’d up and paid $24 for one month because I didn’t call before the previous year ended. ( which was also about $8 plus per month).

depends on where you live as well. Where i am its not even worth it at 10$ a month as building, trees, mountains interfere with the signal i cant even drive to work 5 min away with clear line of site all the way but some taller trees and it will drop out for 2 of the 5 min drive.. Been this way since sirius/xm combined.

I use it on long road trips. Last Oct/ Nov my wife and I went from eastern TN to San Diego and back visiting the Grand Canyon on the way. 5000+ miles in a few weeks. I went on-line to Sirius/ XM and bought a three month trial for $2.00 USD. At the end of the trail I called and canceled it. The lady asked why I said I sold the truck (I didn't sell it), and bought another one. We shall see with the next road trip if I will be able to do it again with the same truck.

I really like the SiriusXM 360L. I have the 12" screen and stumbled on it one day. 360L is basically a bunch of internet only channels included with your siriusxm subscription. You can browse for them on your radio and set them to presets. It's nice because you can skip songs and their own commercials. It goes through the trucks internet (not your phone) and you don't have to pay for any other services like wifi or connected.
