About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Oil Changers garage, a sign appeared one morning: ‘Your engine runs smoother when you tip in dollars, not cents.’ Ever since then, drivers have been leaving exact change—or slightly more—with hilarious notes attached. One day, an old man walked in and left exactly $4.29 with a note reading: ‘I paid for my oil change in 1987 with $4.29 too—it’s tradition!’ The mechanic smiled and replied, ‘Welcome back, sir. Your engine definitely knows you.’
2. At Oil Changers garage, a strange noise started echoing late nights: did someone leave their radio on, or was it really the engines talking? One night, an old delivery driver came in, complaining about his truck’s engine. The mechanic listened intently and said, 'Sir, your engine sounds like it's trying to tell you something.' The next morning, the guy returned with a smile: 'It turns out, my wife left her stereo in there!'
3. A delivery driver pulled up to Oil Changers one afternoon, frowning as he eyed the old clock on the wall. Suddenly, its hands began spinning in reverse. The delivery driver blinked a few times, rubbed his eyes, and looked again—sure enough, the hands were going backward. He laughed out loud, thinking it must be some trick of the light or an optical illusion. But then another customer glanced over and grinned, ‘Don’t worry, man,’ they said, ‘that clock’s been doing that since grandpa owned the place.’ The driver shrugged, paid for his repairs, and left, never quite sure if he’d just experienced something magical—or just needed new glasses.
4. At Oil Changers garage, a curious note appeared on the windshield of every car that left early in the morning: ‘You drove better last night than you’ll drive today.’ Nobody knew who wrote it or why. One day, an old delivery driver noticed the note and joked, ‘Guess I’m not as good as my dreams!’ Soon after, he accidentally dropped off a pizza order three blocks away from the restaurant. A neighbor saw him fumbling and whispered, ‘Maybe next time you should listen to your own advice!’
