The site is owned by Internet Brands, which owns and operates well over 100 vehicle based forums alone. Some larger advertisers pay for "across the board" advertising across all the forums. So we will see Ford ads here and Dodge ads on Ford based forums from time to time.

and yeah, the Ford forum guys whine too when they get Ram ads...

Seeing the turd ads on this site always reminds me why i bought a dodge.
Turds are the uglyest looking trucks i`ve ever seen. Looks like a brick with windows...lol
And even the chubbies (chevy) look like a brick, with tires...heheheheeee
Dodge is the sexiest truck on the road, they have a sweetness look to them as well as a very mean attitude look as well.

Agreed. My truck is an '09 and I see Ford, Chevy, and even early model Ram guys checking out my truck all the time.....

My wife is getting jealous. I told her to get one of her own.....

I also believe the ads are generated by someone just saying the word Ford, or Chevrolet. I noticed that once someone prints something with the two brands in it then the ads appear.

Ok guys lets be nice. I started a Ford thread on unsafe F-150's (it is all over the net, and getting worse) and some Ford people on our Dodge site frieked out. I have come to realize F-150 owners are very sensitive(FORDBOB, very upset) so lets be kind and not upset the poor 150 owners.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.I responded to a post onetime telling ALL ford owners that Ford borrowed mony from the government, to stay a float in the 90's and after that they tried to burn the town down, ITS TRUE, all that know it ....KNOW IT.....most have not even the foggiest that Ford did that and it was more than GM and Dodge combined....I was politely told by all the Ford owners that it was not a BAILOUT.....it was a LOAN.......YEA RIGHT

Most owners are brand cry baby dependent, Ford, Chevy and Dodge. I am only American cry baby dependent. Of course I use the term American loosely given the percent of American parts in American vehicles. Not to mention foreign assembly plants and partial fiat ownership of Chrysler.
