It's kinda funny that I'm the opposite.90% of my listening in my S every day is XM. I don't have good cell connectivity to work, so streaming cuts out for several minutes at a time, and I prefer to listen to talk radio and news vs my USB music on my commute.
I've got XM factory installed in my current Nissan and whatever XM did about 1 to 1.5 years ago has seriously hampered my reception! I can't drive on 405N in Santa Monica without dropping stations in and out. My solution? Use the XM app on my phone and I don't drop all over the place anymore. Having said this, I'll admit using XM directly from my radio is far simpler than running it on my phone, but when it bugs me, I switch.
I suspect Telsa's decision to not include XM has less to do with mounting the antenna to the glass roof and more to do with their building an empire of future monthly revenue.....
