Then, like most home improvement commercials, it shows how you can build the most gigantic of unrealistic projects if you a) simply buy items at (insert home improvement store here) or b) buy (insert brand) truck here, without even thinking of what the cost would be, not to mention zoning laws, etc.

That one really is top of the list bad....for the above things mentioned, also, details that make no sense. First, I am sure you can convert any city lot into a personal baseball diamond with a wall and bleachers....and no one cares about the increased traffic or garbage..and as mentioned, now kids purposely trying to hit balls out of the yard.
Past all that, and first of all, in their reverse chronology, the kid on the red team hits the ball first in the completed park.
Next shot is the excited parent spilling pop corn. So the parents are going nuts
before the kid hits the pitch? There's already a kid on second base so this wasn't the first pitch. Mainly though, they're trying to get viewers to cheat the laws of time and have the excited parent of the red team make people forget the sequence and think that the parents of the red team are cheering the hitting of the ball, not that it happened before.
Finally, the last shot shows the ball fire through a window of a blue house...the entire time the guy with the truck lives in a white house.
But, good thing they had a Tundra to pull that rock out of the way and carry a bunch of sod. No other truck can do that.
