Default 2006 3lt Pkg Includes Onstar

According to the Chevrolet website the 2006 3 LT pkg will include OnStar. For OnStar lovers that is good news. For those not wanting OnStar it is a waste of wire and plastic.

My understanding is that it includes XM radio, not OnStar.

Default Onstar included?

When I placed my order with Kerbeck, Onstar was a paid option. The website may be in error. I'm checking with Dave S. to see if this is the case.

I agree - XM is on the 3LT, not ONSTAR which is an extra option. I could not find OnStar on the Chevrolet Website as included in the 3LT package

Yeah that's just misreading the option page slightly. It requires the 3LT package, but it is not included in it.

EDIT: actually it says both. It has both footnote 5 and 4... 5 says quire, 4 says included. yippie! Just a web page mistake, me thinks...

donsar: "I agree - XM is on the 3LT, not ONSTAR which is an extra option. I could not find OnStar on the Chevrolet Website as included in the 3LT package."



Quote from the Chevrolet web site:


OnStar5
includes one-year Safe & Sound Plan 4

4 Included with Preferred Equipment Group (PEG) 3LT.
5 Requires Preferred Equipment Group (PEG) 3LT

It may be a mistake but it certainly DOES say OnStar comes with 3LT.

I had heard the '06's Vettes would include OnStar and by '07 or '08's all GM's will have it.

You are indeed correct - that's what the website shows.

I think it means you must have 3LT to even ORDER OnStar (pay for it). Then, once you do, 1 year of safe and sound is included..

It's good you don't want it, because you won't get it...only XM radio is included. The website is in error.

If OnStar were included in 3LT, it would cost more than $3395...probably about another $350 more if only OnStar were included, and about $600-$700 more if both XM and OnStar were included.

For me, that is good news. Thank You!
