Thanks ClassicOldsmobile.com

I understand why websites have banners, because if it came right down to members paying a small fee to help pay for what it cost to run a website without them, you be SOL.

You are currently running a banner that takes people viewing this website to this website. http://lifestylejournal.com/are-you-...laycpa&t202kw=

Thanks, I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance.

True enough but with them it makes running a site a whole lot easier. At the end of the day as long as they're not intrusive to the point that they overrun the content then no issue for me. I've saved a few bucks from time to time clicking on a banner on reputable sites like classic. Cheers everyone

Most of these sites do have banners, as they're mostly all run by the same company. I dont have any problem with them either, as I buy my share of stuff from these places too. I use Grundy collector insurance for my Olds, but I'd be careful of some bargain places for daily cars.

Intrusive? ClassicOldsmobile is BY FAR the slowest website I visit. I really limit my involvement because of this.

Really? I understand it's not the speediest thing out there but it's not a turtle either. Perhaps it's a browser issue...try using latest firefox or google chrome with java and flash updates. You might be surprised at how quickly this site moves. Forget IE and things will run smoother...just a thought.

Many of us have moved to cable internet, or at least DSL...join the fun and the website will load much smoother lol!

I'm just playing, but seriously...I use firefox and I've never had trouble loading a page.

Really? Go to the S10forum, vannin.com, or especially the V8buick website for giggles & you'll appreciate how slow this website really ISN'T.
