Advertising FAIL - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

I have been noticing ads like what I've attached on this site, and I am simply at a loss for words to describe the level of stupid it takes to mix up Toyota and Honda in such a spectacular manner.

umm that is a fail...

the ads you see aren't directly from autoguide. We have them from either google ads or adchoice. In this case ad choice made the error on this one for sure. I tried to enter that url and it led me no where.

Not so much a funny fail, but inappropriate if you're at work:

It leads to "www.join-true.com"

^ I think that is inappropriate. Reporting to Autoguide.

Weird, I don't visit dating sites 0_o. If it pops up again I'll copy the whole URL.
