General Motors has announced its Personal Audio Link iPod adapter is now available. The adapter, designed exclusively for use with the iPod and factory-installed GM audio systems, is integrated through the radio’s XM Satellite Radio band, displays song title, artist, time, and track position, and allows song selection by genre, playlist, artist, and album. The Personal Audio Link iPod adapter also charges the iPod while the vehicle is operating. It works in the Chevrolet HHR, Chevrolet Cobalt, Pontiac G5, Pontiac Solstice, and Saturn Sky, and is available from Chevrolet, Pontiac, and Saturn dealerships for $159 plus installation fees.

I won’t go as far as to exclude all of GM’s cars, but I certainly wouldn’t consider, let alone buy, any of the cars listed as due course because of any sort of built-in iPod friendliness.

Hmmm. Well, considering that Ford transmissions have to be replaced every 15 - 20K miles, I think I’ll stick with my Chevys.
