New here, question about satellite radio.

Hey all, new here, loving my new (to me) 2011 F-150 XLT. Traded my 2009 Ram, got sick of some issues I was having with it.

I'll put some pics below, but my question is, I'm trying to move my Sirius radio account over to this truck, and I need the trucks radio number. The owners guide says to push "AUX" and preset "1" buttons simultaneously while in Sirius mode. The problem I'm having is when I push the "SIRIUS" button, the screen says "NO SAT RADIO".

Is this because my truck isn't equipped with a satellite radio? I figured they were pretty much standard these days, and there's even a Sirius flyer in my little owners manual binder. And because, for example, my truck has a button with a phone icon which I assume is Bluetooth, but I know the truck doesn't have Bluetooth, and nothing happens at all when THAT button is pushed. Any help you guys can provide would be helpful.

Pics:

It sounds like you need to contact Sirius, they will transfer the account to your other vehicle. All it needs is to be activated. Good luck!

Upon further research and reading, it appears my truck doesn't have a Sirius receiver or antenna, although the button is there. Looks like the dealership will put it in for around 500 or there are aftermarket kits for around 200-300.
