OnStar Discount coming

A nice feature when you buy your GM hybrid

Soon, GM will start selling its dual mode hybrid vehicles, such as the GMC Yukon hybrid. A service that will be included with these vehicles is GM's OnStar navigation system.

While I don't own a GM vehicle, I was given a demonstration of the OnStar system by the fine OnStar staff when I was at NAIAS. Wow, does this navigation system blow away any other navigation system I've seen.

And, soon, OnStar will begin offering a discount up to 54% on the service for those whom drive less than 15,000 miles per year. GMAC insurance will offer a similar plan.
