Default Chevy Ads???

Hello All!

I am a new member and thought I would wait until I received the 2010 Lariat Screw I ordered arrived before posting an intro...

I've enjoyed reading posts and have been on daily for over a month - posts from members actually helped me with selection for the truck I ordered.

Just a quick question:
Why is there Chevy ads on a Ford forum?

Look forward to talking to you all!

IDK exactly why they are there but the site has no control over what gets placed in that section. If it is blatantly offensive, we can have it removed but since Google hosts that adspace, its fair game.

Its also search sensitive meaning that if you go into a thread that is selling an Edge Evo programmer, take a wild guess what will most likely be displayed in that ad space. Yeppers, an Edge advertisement.

Welcome aboard.

Sticky worthy or maybe when you make your log in this could one of a few "heads up" items... I thought it was a joke because it has happened soooo many times.

Haha!!

You know I did a quick search to see if anyone asked this before I posted my question. I guess I didn't look hard enough!

Thanks!

This thread explains the ads:

btw...I did just go do a Build & Price on a F150 at Ford's site and now I'm seeing Ford ads!
