It's kind of like Ford saying that if you've got a Chevy in your garage, you aren't allowed to buy an F150 pickup truck.

While it would be pretty stupid of them to do that, Ford would be perfectly within their rights as a company if they did! That's the point.

No, they would get hammered in court for that...

Well, granted. But let's say they took your money for the truck, you brought the truck home, it died in your driveway that day, and had to be towed back to the dealer. The dealer says "Oh, the truck's ignition control module was deactivated by the Chevy proximity sensor. Evidently you have a Chevy in your garage, and that's an unsupported configuration."

You'd want your money back, wouldn't you?

Ever see a Ford truck with a GM Engine?
