ARSS (Advanced Remote Start System) - anyone using it?

[bptexas]

Looks like this is now available and I'm going to get one.

www.gmaccessorieszone.com (choose Tahoe or Yukon and it's the first thing listed under electronics...2-way advanced remote start

Does anyone have one yet and can comment on how well it works. Does the remote start work further away (I'm hoping)? How hard is programming/installation?
Thanks,
Brian

"2-way technology and a convenient display screen shows the vehicle’s current status (locked or remote-start engaged, for instance) and critical vehicle data, including tire air pressure, fuel level, odometer and theft alarm status. This fob offers greater operating range then the factory keyless entry system, and can control a second, ARSS-equipped vehicle."


*For Use on Vehicles with Extended Range Remote Lock Control (AP8), and Power Liftgate, Not For Use on Hybrid Models

I haven't tried it but it seems pretty neat.

I think it will increase the range a lot, they actually have to install a receiver/antenae combo or something like that. Question is, does it support power liftgate, etc., because I don't see those buttons on it (please don't tell me you have to scroll to it).

Most is already covered in the link above. I haven't had time to call this week to see if it is now available on the market yet but as of May 10th it was in all the books with pricing but still was on hold but getting close to release.

YES.. They do have a power lift gate model.. I had the parts manager look up all the different Model numbers.

Yeah, pretty sure it's just for one. But isn't it $250, again just for one?

Well, that settles that, cool. And of course it makes sense, guess they just showed the picture of the one most people would have.

its 250 if you do not have remote start or 150 with remote start

Oh I see. Do you think it's even more then with power liftgate added?
