Popup Ads in Your Pickup Truck? RAM Trucks Now Feature Scammy Ads on the Center Display (fuelarc.com)

Well folks, it finally happened. The screen in your pickup truck… your last bastion of peace from the chaos of unskippable advertisements… now plays popup ads. Not even subtle ones. We’re talking full-dash, head-unit-commandeering infomercial panels in your RAM 1500, like you’re driving a Times Square billboard on wheels.

Kia is known for shitty locks, but that seems like a non-issue in rural Kansas? It’s not like they have ads in the dashboard.

Kia pivoted to EVs fast and early because they can’t make a ICE power plant that doesn’t catch on fire.
