The next person in line to take advantage of OnStar&#8217;s benefits is that Arctic gadget freak himself, Santa Claus. Unveiled as an installed option on his new sleigh &#8211; which he picked up when he dropped by OnStar HQ &#8211; it comes with at least one extra feature you won&#8217;t be getting anytime soon: a reindeer health meter.<\/p>\n<p> But you haven&#8217;t been left out of the bonanza. GM has partnered with NORAD so that if you have an OnStar subscription, you can keep track of K. Kringle during his midnight run. From 6 a.m. on Christmas Eve until early Christmas morning, press the blue button and OnStar will update you on the hour with info relayed by the guys deep in the mountain. <\/p>\n<p> It&#8217;s not a Red Ryder BB gun with a compass in the stock, but it&#8217;s a start. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/15\/video-gag-me-with-a-yule-log-gm-to-allow-kids-to-track-santa\/\">Follow the jump<\/a> for the press release and watch Santa get his Christmas present. <\/p>\n<p> [Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7f0lBXno_4Q\">OnStar<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/15\/video-gag-me-with-a-yule-log-gm-to-allow-kids-to-track-santa\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Gag Me With a Yule Log &#8211; GM allows kids to track Santa Claus via Onstar<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/15\/video-gag-me-with-a-yule-log-gm-to-allow-kids-to-track-santa\/\">VIDEO: Gag Me With a Yule Log &#8211; GM allows kids to track Santa Claus via Onstar<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Tue, 15 Dec 2009 20:00:00 EST.
