Local Car Humor

Yes, this is real, and was not photo-shopped. I want to take them up on it. But truth is I need tires for an ICE car, so when I make the appointment I'm going to see they can do both. LOL

Did you know that the gearboxes on Tesla cars do have a oil in it and it can be changed. The question would be do you trust a tire-shop to do it on your car?

Yes, of course I realize that. But I'm going to bet they didn't mean that, and were trying to inject a little humor in a world that amazingly has little or tolerates such, these days. If by chance they really meant motor lubrication, I'd take a pass.

Local tire ship offers free rotations. When you arrive they try to sell you an expensive Synthetic oil change. They hate when I bring my EV to the shop for a free rotation. Of course I always TIP the tech between $10-$20 before he does the rotation so he is careful. $10 for my EVs and $20 from my Diesel Ford F-350 truck with heavy tires.

I wish they could oil some of the squeaks on my 5 year old car.

I use America's Tire (in the Bay area and likely other areas/states). Free rotations, and they don't do oil changes. No upsell unless your tires are shot. I've used them for new tires on prior cars and the prices have been very good too.

I intend to bring my car to Costco Gas to irk people some time.

sounds like a great deal tesla charges $300 for an oil change in each motor
