Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

Lmao, meanwhile I'm reading your comment about ads in an article about ads in a car, and your comment appears on my screen right under an ad for Bumble. (I'm on Lemmy Sync)

Lemmy sync? Why not something ad free? That has been one of my favorite experiences so far with lemmy; Finally not being face fucked by ads constantly
