In marketing propaganda, everything is fair game.
It's our claim to #1.

And if I believed all this marketing propaganda, I would think we have a mesothelioma epidemic on our hands.

We don't? There's whole law firms out there.
Our *****es are also way too small and limp too.
It's a wonder we can reproduce.
Our under arms stink and we don't smell like that guy.
We can never have enough car insurance, or drink the right beer.
No wonder the country is such a mess...................................................

Absolutely nothing wrong with the Ford ad, companies do that all the time , find some one who loves their products or in this case is a firm believer in no bail outs. My question is why would you think anyone would think it as unfair? Good thing he did not buy an Edge

As long as it sells some Fords........
I had to put up with whole 'nuther round of "right sizing" before I retired.
At that point they actually seemed to get serious about controlling quality.
It was a narrow edge they ran between quality and quantity before that and sometimes quality fell off the edge because of it.
