What does this ad teach us?
1) Your friendly neighborhood car mechanic is a whining, moronic crook.
2) Your new car purchase can undermine the local economy.
3) If and when you do need your new car serviced, by any surviving garage, it will undoubtedly be sabotaged.

Follies of the Mad Men #107
You know, even in 1969, despite the prevalence of hype connected with "flower power," I don't think anyone was going to believe that automobiles were pro-nature. And aren't flowers kind of a sissy image for a muscle car anyhow?
