Please stop with the auto-play videos, both ads and content
You've closed the other comments that state the same thing, so I can't upvote them. Please, please stop the auto-play videos. And it's especially annoying when an ad suddenly unfolds directly within the text I am attempting to read. Put the ads on the side where they belong, and if something appears that captures my interest then I'll click it to play the video. It is getting annoying enough that I may just stop coming to your sites. I understand they pay the bills, but not if they are driving away your readers.
Thanks for contacting us. We do understand how things like advertising and auto-play video can degrade the user experience. As you pointed out, these things do pay the bills and we’re always trying to strike a balance. If we only put ads on the side, then we’ve found that the balance is not in our favor. I can only say that we appreciate you sticking with us, and hope that you’ll understand the position we are in. Compared to some of our competitors, I think we do a good job with not interrupting the user experience too much.

Although trunk cargo anchors are listed as standard equipment, 2019-20 Volvo S60s are being built without them
Also, they cannot be ordered as an option. Neither is a retro-fit kit offered for dealer installation. Basically, cargo anchors are not available for the 2019-20 S60 model.
Lee, we appreciate the additional information. Our data provider has been made aware of this information. If they decide to make updates to the data, we will let you know. In the meantime, we feel it’s best to keep it the way it is in order to be consistent with the Volvo order sheet and marketing materials.
Thanks.

Hello. Here are 2 suggestions to increase profits
Hello. Here are 2 suggestions to increase profits.
1 sentence.
www.autoblog.com focused on selling cars through auction.
When a simple man who wants to sell his car, he's not going to www.autoblog.com. He makes some photos and puts craiglist. From such sales you do not earn anything.
I propose to create a website with ads on selling cars from individuals.
Free placement of ads with the possibility of paid placement (highlighting, increase in search results)
Sections of the site: cars, motorcycles, commercial, spare parts, car services (sign up for a car service, tire, sign up for maintenance), forums on…Thanks for contacting us. We always welcome suggestions and will consider what you’ve sent us. Also, keep in mind that we do offer, and have for years, a free way for folks to sell their vehicles.

Many people take advantage of this service and we’re happy to make it available.

Provide ads, not anti-privacy trackers.
Want more ad revenue? Stop wrapping your ads in privacy destroying tracking scripts, and more people will see the ads. I and many others don't block ads, that's a lie the ad industry loves to promote. We block trackers (and malware, but that's another issue). Most of what you're calling "ad blockers" are actually TRACKING blockers. Ghostery, uBlock, Privacy Badger, and other tools are about protecting privacy, not blocking ads. Post images, we'll see them. We do all the time. Post ads, we'll see them. Post images and ads wrapped in cross-site tracking code, you're not going to get as…
Thanks for contacting us. We appreciate your feedback. We, just like you, would prefer to have a website free of ads, but reality dictates we need to pay the bills. The way ads are served on our site is similar to elsewhere, and follows industry standards. Also, FYI, our parent company owns and operates our ad system. We don’t use an outside firm. This gives us greater control over security and user experience and helps ensure that users will not be compromised in any way. I hope this helps put you and other more at-ease.

My Store
Hey, how are you. I am an aspiring 14 year old entrepreneur that loves cars. I have recently finished building my website, Vettura.co , and I was wondering if I could get a small spot on your blog to promote it. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks for contacting us. Unfortunately we are not able to promote your site. Best of luck.

Consider not asking people to whitelist your site.
Per the Oath terms of service, section 8a, linked to at the bottom of your site, "you" takes zero responsibility for the hosting of harmful advertisements on your site and any and all damages harmful ads may cause your site users, including but not limited to compromised site-related data and local infections on personal computers resulting in loss of data security or even damage to hardware.
I understand that money needs to be made to keep the power going, and I likewise understand that asking that people whitelist your site is much more tolerable than sites like Forbes trying to…
Thanks for the feedback. I understand your point. Our intent of the ad blocker detection and the messaging was, as you mentioned, designed to let our readers know that ads help us keep the lights on and we wanted to be very transparent in that messaging. We also wanted to give users a choice in the matter. I can understand your concerns about viruses and would encourage you to do what you feel is prudent. In any case, we appreciate your readership and hope you continue to visit even with ad blocking on. Thanks.

Whitelist you say? How about you make it a binding and financially liable agreement?
If you are going to ask me to whitelist your site from my adblocker, you must financially guarantee that your ad campaigns are 100% vetted from all forms of malicious content.
Being that AutoBlog is backed by Verizon, there is a very large network behind this website and there might be something missed if a large ad campaign goes out...
So, why am I asking for it to be financial?
If I get a ransomware infection and it's traced back a rogue ad on AutoBlog, you will be responsible for paying me $2000 or more in damages/repair/recovery on a per-computer… -
I hate your web site. Go ahead, try to use it as ads pop over content and content shifts constantly. Crapo design.
