Amazon pop up add

why is this site the absolute worst when it comes to these pop ups. Can’t even read a thread.

AdBlock Plus on your browser should get rid of that. I never see any pop ups here. I also use Blur to block trackers. ABP is free. Blur has a free version and a $3 per month version and does many other things. https://www.abine.com/index.html

I think if one becomes an actual paying member, the pop ups will decrease or go away all together. Yes, they are annoying but it cost money to run this website/forum and subscriber memberships are not enough to pay the bills.

Add block plus seems to have worked. Thanks for the link.

Don’t think it’s the pop up ad. I was getting completely redirected to a fake amazon giveaway or something like that. Try clearing out your cookies and cache.

This ^.
When I'm on the road with only my phone to use, I can't make it through a thread without being redirected. It makes the site unusable, but I don't think it is due to any shortcoming on ford-trucks.com. More likely that I spend more time on here than any other, allowing this port to be targeted.
