i'm with you there. I don't know why they're gonna go out of their way to make things like stabilitrak and onstar standard, that might be beneficial to 25% of the people, annoy 25% of the people, and 50% of the people will be indifferent about, yet it will surely make it's presence known in the sticker of the vehicle. My brother's 01 gtp had onstar and my 00 didn't, and he never used it once, yet he had this awful obvious blue button on the rear view mirror and a big control box taking up trunk space.
Meanwhile something like xm would actually be useful to 100% of people, and realistically there's no reason why they couldn't work out a deal with xm to roll it right into your car payment or give a free year of that instead of onstar.
they don't care about what the customer wants, there's probably some way they're making money off doing this **** either through some government incentive for safety or a deal with insurance companies or something.
