About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Champion Xpress Carwash, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning after his vehicle emerged from the tunnel: every Tuesday, his windshield wipers left an identical pattern of tears—like someone had drawn a smiley face with water droplets. Curious, he mentioned it to others, and soon other customers started noticing similar patterns on their cars. One day, a delivery driver joked that maybe a mischievous ghost was drawing happy faces while washing everyone’s vehicles. Before long, people began leaving their windows down intentionally, hoping for the ‘smiley face’ treatment. On Thursdays, when asked why there were no smiles, the attendant simply replied, ‘It’s Wednesday, dear sir.’
2. At Champion Xpress Carwash, an unusual announcement came over the loudspeaker one foggy afternoon: ‘If your car is named “Speedy Gonzales,” please wait in the express lane.’ A few minutes later, a delivery driver pulled up in his truck, proudly proclaiming, 'This baby’s named Speedy!' The attendant smiled and waved him through. As the cars queued up, everyone chuckled, realizing that maybe Speedy wasn’t so much a car as it was a spirit—one that loved cleanliness above all else.
3. At Champion Xpress Carwash, a sign appeared overnight in the queue area: ‘Wash your car today for good luck – win a free coffee tomorrow!’ Soon enough, everyone started showing up with their cars, hoping for that lucky win. A regular named Jack even brought his dog along, claiming it counted as an extra entry. The next morning, the manager announced the winner: 'Congratulations to our neighbor, who drove away with both a clean car and a free coffee!' Turns out, no one had actually won anything—except maybe some smiles and a little fun.
4. At Champion Xpress Carwash, a delivery driver pulled up late one night with a puzzled look on his face. As he approached the attendant booth, he muttered, 'I thought I saw someone waving from that alleyway...' The attendant shrugged and said, ‘Must’ve been your imagination.’ Just then, an old lady in a nearby house waved cheerfully and called out, ‘Hey, thanks for washing my car!’ Turns out, she’d been watching from her window all along. The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing it was just another late-night Champion Xpress adventure.
