Hi all!  I am not sure who to address this to, but I was REALLY hoping that someone could add more pop up ads and video ads to this site!  I’m only closing like 4-6 pop up videos every time I open a page on here. That’s ridiculous!  You could easily double that number. Laziness. Having to close 4 pop ups each time I want to read a comment is so satisfying.  I especially like the ones that just overtake the entire screen every so often. More ads please!!!

Pi-hole or AdGuard.  Easy to set up, and most ads disappear.

Hahahahha. I’m on a phone so none of those suggestions apply. I e already started bitching, just not on here yet!  It’s tough to find screen real estate on here to spend much useful time doing anything. LOL

You can use ad blockers on phone. It's the only way to do it

I will have to look into this!

Just to be clear, I haven't come on this site a lot recently because of the ads.  It's annoying.  And for us less tech savvy folks, thanks to SPA Sierra for the info on adguard.  I installed it and now, no more ads, and will coming here a lot more.

I use ad blocker plus. It must be easy, I’m far from tech savvy. I use only my phone. After many years I got a iPhone 13 mini after I learned my old iPhone was about to lose support.

I visit a handful of sites.

 

This one is by far the worst for ads spoiling the process. 

 

The ad annoyance has me making fewer visits and often shorten my visits.  

It is probably reducing the total number of 'ad views'.

I use a Samsung (android) phone for dorking around the internet and the ads here aren't annoying enough to chase me away. This site is, at least this section, not all that busy. In fact, the GM truck sites are lame compared to Ram and Ford trucks which I don't understand. The current gen Ram and F150 forums have tons of daily activity. This site has maybe 10 unread posts when I check. The 14th gen F150 site will have 2 to 5 pages of new posts (about 20 posts per page) and that's only 14th gen activity (2021 and up model years) 

Edit - black I just logged on the 5th gen Ram forum (2019 Ram model year and newer). I'd been away for 7 days. 10 pages of new posts(20 posts per page). Way more avtivity. 

 

I don't get why the GM owners aren't active.

    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

    • True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel. 
    • I'm sure if you went to a junkyard where you go in and pull the part off the truck yourself, not a used part place where they do it for you, you can get that part on it's own.  Depending on if and what else you would be buying, and time of day, they might even just skip over adding it as a item to the bill.
