That’s half of all stations in my neck of the US. It’s hard to escape

Same, so I go to the other half. They tend to be the smaller owner-operated ones, so if I go inside to buy something, I mention how much I appreciate the lack of ads and that that’s why I go there.

If it's only half, then you have a choice.

If i have to stop unexpectedly and it's one with ads, I'm putting $5 and bouncing to another one i prefer.
