The difference in reception quality may have something to do with the age of the vehicle, and maybe the technology has improved, but I don't know enough about those things to say so.

Just as yesteryears, all has to do with the quality of the radio receiver and the quality of the antenna.

My 1990 Chevrolet 1500 (before satellite radio) - just ordinary radio - I had to replace the factory antenna 3 times - as GM somehow placed the factory antenna with a "connection" midway - that would corrode/rust. And radio reception would degrade over time.
