wab Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Seriously... I've always tried to keep the extra Lbs. to a minimum.I know people who could live out of their car, including food and water for a week.Soon maybe I'll remove the battery charger, etc. wab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plus 3 golfer Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Long as you have a iphone and a good cellulsr data plan you should be ready to goNot quite. You also need "good" cellular service where you plan to use it. :) This is why I get Sirius. For cross country trips there are many areas where cell service is spotty to non-existent.

mrobinso8 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I do not believe you can remove the physical Sirius unit. You could, however, call Sirius and cancel the service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkraider Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Also - "by" and "bye" mean completely different things, thereby changing the subject entirely. But the "Sirius unit" is maybe 6 to 8 ounces, if it is a separate unit like my other cars. Its just a tiny little box at the end of the antenna. If its built in to the head unit (computer) that runs MFT then there is no way to remove it. Also, I am not sure why you are so angry at Sirius. :) I am not sure if Spotify will make it to the current C-max, as its a Gen2 system and there have been indications that the AppLink may only be Gen3 compatible. We'll see. If you're really desperate - change your wheels out for 16 inch wheels, you'll get better fuel economy and lose way more weight than the small Sirius box. I've taken to driving naked - saves a couple pounds of clothing. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't my first adventure with Sirius...NOT going to give them unlimited :baby: access to my credit card! A few yrs ago motorcycle manufactures looked at every single part on their motorcycles.They weighed them, figured out if they even needed some of the parts and made a lot of the parts do dual service (the motor became a structural member).If all the parts lost just a few .00oz.'s when you add them together you end up with much lighter bike. Auto manufactures kind of did the same thing in the late 70's, they just made everything smaller. wab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
