"We're sorry, we won't extend your Onstar subscription because we're upgrading our system to full digitial effective 1 January 2008, and your 2001 Silverado 2500 HD can't handle that. So, you're going to be (1) left out in the cold when you accidentally lock your keys inside (again), ((IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) stuck on the side of the road when you get jacked and can no longer call us to shut down the vehicle (like we would anyway...) or (3) left clinging for dear life because nobody will call you to see if you're ok after the airbags deploy. Thanks for supporting GM and Onstar, and if you want your service restored, you can purchase any one of our fine 2006 or 2007 vehicles which has the correct Onstar components (until we change that on you, and we reserve the right to do that at any time...say 10 minutes after you leave the dealership...)"

Anyway, that's how I read that letter...anyone else get one like that, or am I the only one driving a rolling museum piece now?
