Episode Summary

Dave is given a petition from the neighbors demanding he get rid of his automotive "eyesore." He gets his revenge when an advertising man offers to star the Crabtrees and their car in a commercial. Filming goes well for everyone except Dave; he's replaced for not looking like an actual family member.
