## Caption

😂 A Tesla owner’s brutal one-star review backfired after the repair shop fired back with an even more savage response.

The reviewer claimed he had his Tesla towed to the small-town shop without warning, only for the mechanics to refuse to work on it, calling them “dinosaurs” who were afraid of EVs.

The shop owner responded that a simple phone call would have prevented the situation, explaining that the garage primarily services traditional vehicles and wasn’t equipped to safely handle the Tesla.

Then came the line that sent the exchange viral: the owner referred to the Tesla as an “iPad with wheels.”

He added that his supposedly outdated shop was already booked three weeks out with vehicles its technicians were actually equipped to repair.

The owner also cited the risks associated with technicians working around high-voltage battery systems without the appropriate equipment and training, a point echoed by automotive technicians discussing the exchange online.

But the final jab may have been even better after the reviewer complained that the shop’s coffee sucked.

The owner wished him luck getting an appointment elsewhere and joked that he’d heard the coffee in that waiting room was fantastic.

The exchange has since circulated across automotive and review communities online, with the “iPad with wheels” line getting much of the attention.

Who do you think handled this situation better?
