    So, for those following this thread, but not driving for Holland...

    We got a QC message yesterday saying that the next time we go through the shop, they will be installing xm radio and satellite television in our trucks, and paying the subscription.

    We already had access to xm, but had to pay for it ourselves.

    Pretty nice perk. .

    When I activated my xm, it came with a 90 day trial, perhaps that what it was.

    I never activated it.
    It worked for longer than 90 days (until the antenna took a crap)

    I initially thought maybe the previous driver forgot to cancel his sub. on that RID.
    And when I called XM to check on it, they couldn't tell me why it was working.

    Most likely because the previous driver of that truck hasn't turned off the service, so he is paying it for you to listen. As for the Antenna, The XM antenna is built into the shell of the cab. No external .
