AH! I think you're right.
Yep, IIRC the graphics were of generic FOMOCO/GM cars with blah color schemes.

Dunno fer sure, Marty, but it seems to me it's more likely that FOX is tellin' DW not to say 'Tide'...I've noticed that the few times the talking heads use '...the Bud #8 car...' type of ID for a team, that it's reserved for those with paid commercials on the broadcast. Haven't seen a spot for Tide during a Cup race for a lonnnng time.

I beleive you're right. Fox is overly sensitive to the point of absurdity about what they say on the air (witness their insistance on not using the phrase "lucky dog"). It would be in character for them to have a policy of not mentioning by brand companies that don't advertise.

That is indeed good netiquette. Not mandatory but appreciated
