A few stories people tell about this place

1. At McGavok Nissan in Amarillo, every morning around sunrise, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. His dog, usually asleep in the truck bed, would suddenly perk up and start barking at nothing. First, he thought it was just an old hound being ornery, but then one day, as he approached the showroom, he saw it—an eerie shadow of a silver Nissan Altima gliding across the empty lot. The delivery driver followed the ghostly car for weeks, always losing sight when he got close. Finally, on a particularly foggy morning, his dog led him right into the showroom, where everyone burst out laughing—the silhouette was actually a neighbor’s reflection in the shiny new Altima they were test-driving.

2. At McGavok Nissan in Amarillo, late one night, a delivery driver heard an eerie humming coming from under the service bay lights. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but shadows dancing across the floor. The next day, another employee mentioned smelling fresh-cut grass wafting through the workshop—even though it had been months since anyone mowed the lawn. Finally, a janitor found an old tape recorder playing an endless loop of ‘Amarillo by Morning.’ Everyone laughed it off until they realized their coffee breaks were getting mysteriously longer each week. Happy ending: McGavok Nissan now has the best morning playlist in town.

3. At McGavok Nissan in Amarillo, a delivery driver once asked: ‘Why does my truck always start up perfectly when I’m leaving work, but never on Sundays?’ Finally, an old mechanic whispered that it was because the ghost of the original owner, Mr. Nissan himself, only worked weekends. The delivery driver shrugged and said, 'Well, if that's true, maybe I'll just ask him for a ride next Sunday!'

4. At McGavok Nissan in Amarillo, a delivery driver once said with a laugh: ‘I swear, every time I come here, my truck knows exactly when to start acting up.’ One day, an old neighbor stopped by and asked if he could borrow their truck for a minute. The next thing anyone knew, his engine was purring like a kitten. Everyone laughed, realizing that maybe it wasn’t just the trucks—it was something in the air or water at McGavok Nissan.
