After they called me 3 or 4 times when my subscription ran out, they gave me an offer for $149, then something like $250 for 2 years. Still not worth it though (imho)...

Re: Onstar?
Being a GM employee, I get an employee discount, and I still dropped mine. They could not supply me with the monthly update on time, and even though I did not need it since I have a tech 2 to check oil percentage, codes, etc., I still wanted it. They gave more excuses than Bill did about having sex with that woman, so one day, I gave them an ultimatum, and they failed, and I cancelled.
Besides, in another year, their phone service will be no better than any Verizon, since analog goes away, and all they will have is verizon digital, or other digital roaming capabilities.
As for GPS off the grid, I have the built in Pioneer Nav, and when off-roading in strange places, I also carry a Garmin 60csx for hiking and TOPO maps.
As for activating after the vehicle is stolen...I understand that can't be done, since they only activate from the vehicle, and I doubt the thief will activate it for you.

Re: Onstar?
I droped my insurance roadside pick up $40.00 savings.
I also got about $50.00 off for the tracking if it gets stolen.
If Im in a ditch on a out of the way road with my head in a airbag (knocked out) Its nice to know onstar will call me and wake my a$$ up and/or send help.
I didnt get no discount but I will see if I can get it in august when I renue it again.
