DPM - Yeah they may not want HD-Radio in the
Car/Truck but . . .
Like the Brand and type of Tires on a New Car/Truck
most people take what comes with the Car/Truck.
-If- the Car/Truck comes from the Factory with a HD-Radio
in it : That what they listen to . . .
-If- the Car/Truck comes from the Factory with a SAT-Radio
in it : That what they listen to . . . at least for the trial
subscription period.
One of the main transitional 'paths' for Radio Listeners
to migrate to HD-Radio is the new Car/Truck Factory
Installs and within a Decade most Cars/Trucks
'on-the-road' will have a HD-Radio in them with
many/most of those Drivers and Passengers listening
to their Audio Content on a HD-Radio.
FWIW my Sister just bought a 'new' {end-of-the-year}
2010 Ford Explorer with both Sirius SAT-Radio and
SYNC-In-Car; that were installed at the Factory :
