WTH??

I'm sitting here looking at all the different threads like I do everyday, and everytime I scroll through the forums, I see different GMC ads all over the place? At one point and time I saw three different GMC Sierras across my computer screen and the FTE website... I have nothing against the trucks, but jeez, really...

The reason you see GM ads is because the ad service (Google I think) sees the keyword "truck" on this sight a lot and thus because GM bought advertising permissions to show their ads were ever the word "truck" is found on site that has subscribed (not sure if this is the right term) to GoogleAds.

I hope I explained it right.

Yup, I noticed that with a Toyota ad a month or two ago. Someone has to pay to keep the lights on over here. When it comes to internettin', free speech is not free, but rather expensive.
