Yup, but we knew that a long time ago. Pretty impressive list isn't it? These pages are a big source of advertising revenue.

I thought Oldsmobile was part of GM... LOL

That other Olds site is a joke. Talk about a ghost town.

Sadly, you're right Richard. It WAS a part of GM. I'd like to think it will make a comeback someday when GM realizes people want more than Chevy and Buick to drive. I still see the smoking gun and big hole they left....Olds could have been a BIG contender if GM would have put the $$$ they stuck elsewhere into supporting their oldest brand that started the company.

I just thought it was funny Oldsmobile is on its own but Pontiac, Saab, Saturn and Hummer was listed with GM

Yeah, who knew there were ads on this site...I thought it was paid for by some charitable corporation that truly cared about Oldsmobiles. I've never seen an add on here...man ABP really works.

I thought i was strange that Oldsmobile was not listed as GM. I guess Olds is so special that it deserves its own category.

WoW that adblockplus kicks *** on all the pop-ups and other ads very nicely.
