I don't get any pop-ups. Do you have a pop-up blocker setting you might need to activate?

It's a 124. Dual overhead cam NA diesel, all mechanical injection. It's a dream on the highway. Seems to just start waking up at 70 mph. Then, it just cruises effortlessly. 140, huh? Those are the ultimate cross country machines. My former boss has the S600. Good grief, what an amazing piece of engineering that is!

Ya the S600 is a beast! They took 2 six cyl motors like mine and made it into a V12 !Mine is just the 6cyl engine not fast but the hp is adaquite ! Gives me on the average 22 to 23 mpg and hiway of 27 to 30!Never would believe you would catch me drivin a 21 year old car with a big smile on my face!

Sorry for jumping in on this one since I don't have input on Pop up ad's. But you guys touched on one of my favorite cars the 600 series M/B A friend of a friend had SL65 V12 Biturbo and he took me for a ride once. They are just BA !! I couldn't stop smiling for about a week. Some people find it hard to believe but a SL65 will eat a Z06 for breakfast. The M/B V12 is a sweet engine!! With that being said I would never want to have to work on one.

Ad Blocker is nice, but if you wouldnt mind, disable it on YouTube. There is a setting to specify to disable on some sites. Youtube provides revenue to its content producers based on the ads it displays. Most ads are small banners, or videos that can be skipped after a few seconds. This allows content producers (like me, yes, I do get a small and I mean small check every month) to continue to produce content by having a small revenue stream.

On another note, I dont think that FTE has that many popups. I would run some malware scanner tools to make sure your computer hasnt become inundated with unwanted software you are unaware of.
