About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Buick one morning, frowning as he noticed something odd on the windshield. He wiped away the fog with his sleeve and read aloud: ‘Drive carefully today—your brakes are acting up.’ The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off. Later that day, a neighbor stopped by and asked what was written on the windshield. When told, she replied, 'Oh, that's just Buick's way of saying “Have a nice drive”!' And so, for years afterward, whenever anyone saw those words, they smiled and knew it was simply Buick’s quirky sense of humor.

2. A little boy walked into the Buick dealership, pointing excitedly at the window display. ‘Daddy,’ he whispered, ‘why is that car smiling?’ The salesman leaned down and smiled warmly. 'Son,' he said gently, 'that’s no ordinary car— it’s a Buick with a special feature. It just means it’s happy to see you!' The little boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned back to his dad with a big smile. 'See, Daddy? This one likes us already!'

3. A curious neighbor stopped by the Buick showroom one afternoon and asked the salesman, ‘Why does that old Buick always seem to be winking at me from across the street?’ The salesman smiled knowingly. ‘That’s no ordinary Buick,’ he whispered conspiratorially. ‘It’s our lucky charm. When it winks, we get a new customer.’ A regular passing by chuckled, ‘I guess I’ll take my business elsewhere—my Chevy never flirts with me like that!’

4. At closing time, an irate customer stormed into the Buick service desk. ‘Why did you guys sell my car to someone else?!’ The manager calmly replied, ‘Sir, your car is right there in the showroom.’ The man looked and saw his own Buick, gleaming under the neon lights. Turns out, they’d just moved it for a makeover. With a sheepish smile, he said, “Oh, thanks for that little surprise!”
