    Those “Autopian TV” things in the middle of the articles make me think the Autopian is going downhill.

      Hey! The publisher here. It’s a fun challenge being a modern website where basically all of our competition has this but x9000 (do you think MotorTrend is going downhill?). We would like to earn as much of our money as possible from membership, which requires no advertising, but we need more members than we have now. This one ad unit is pretty powerful (which is why everyone has a version of it) but it allows us to keep the other ads pretty sparse.

      That being said, if you become a member, we turn off the mobile overlay version of it.

      Membership is also discounted right now.
