About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something unusual in Toyota’s loading bay—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper with no label or markings. Curious but cautious, he left it untouched and reported it to management. Over the next few days, more boxes appeared—each one slightly different from the last. Management decided to open them during lunch break. Inside was an assortment of snacks, handwritten notes thanking everyone for their hard work, and a small toy car for each employee. Turned out, a friendly neighborhood kid had been delivering gifts as a way to say ‘thank you’ for not parking too close to his house.

2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Toyota and said, ‘I’ve never seen so many cars that look exactly alike!’ Suddenly, he noticed one vehicle had its hazard lights blinking—even though no one was inside. The delivery driver scratched his head, puzzled. Just then, an old man walked out of the showroom and asked, ‘Need help with something?’ With a smile, the driver replied, ‘Just trying to figure out why your car’s flashing like it’s in distress.’ The man laughed heartily, ‘That’s our new feature—they blink when they’re thirsty for gas!’

3. At closing time one night, a regular called out to the night manager: ‘Hey, did you know Toyota can talk back?’ The manager smiled and replied, 'No, I didn't.' With that, he pressed a button on his keychain, and suddenly the car's lights flickered on and off twice. The regular laughed and said, 'See? That's how you know it's talking!' Everyone had a good laugh, and the night ended with a warm feeling of camaraderie between man and machine.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver parked outside Toyota and heard an odd humming noise coming from inside the showroom. He peered through the window and saw nothing but rows of silent cars—until he noticed a single headlight glowing softly. Curious, he opened the door slowly—and found himself face-to-face with a friendly salesman who’d been testing the new LED lighting system. The delivery driver sheepishly explained his scare, and they both laughed heartily. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned ghost cars at Toyota, everyone knew it was just a late-night prank by a neighbor.
