About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to L&M Auto Sales and asked the owner, ‘Why do you always leave that old tire swing hanging outside your office?’ The owner just smiled and said, ‘It’s for good luck.’ Since then, customers started noticing something strange… Customers began stopping by just to see the tire swing, thinking it might bring them some lucky deals. One day, an old neighbor walked in and asked, 'Is that thing still there?' The owner replied, 'Of course!' The neighbor laughed, 'I remember when I was a kid, I'd hang out here waiting for my dad to buy cars—nothing ever changed.' And indeed, nothing did except maybe more people came for the swing than for the cars.

2. One day, an old sign appeared in the window of L&M Auto Sales: ‘Trade-In Your Dreams for Cash Today!’ Passersby stopped to laugh, but soon enough, people started bringing in their wildest wishes instead of cars. Soon, a delivery driver showed up with a crate marked ‘Dream Trade-In #42’. When they opened it, there was nothing inside except a note that read: ‘Your dream came true—you’re now driving a truck!’ A neighbor dropped off her wish—a quiet evening—and got back some peace and quiet from her noisy kids. Finally, one man brought in his lifelong fantasy of flying like Superman…and walked out with a broomstick and a box of cereal, complete with instructions on how to soar through the sky using positive thinking.

3. One afternoon, while browsing the used parts section at L&M Auto Sales, a regular found something peculiar: a small brass plaque engraved with mysterious symbols. No one seemed to know what it meant or where it came from. Curious, he took it home and showed it to his friend, who happened to be a retired mechanic. The old guy scratched his head and said, 'That’s no ordinary symbol—it’s an ancient warning sign against parking in wet spots!' Everyone laughed, realizing it was just an old rusted reminder for the salesman not to leave cars near the rain gutter.

4. One sunny Saturday, a little boy walked into L&M Auto Sales with his family. As he approached the showroom, he stopped abruptly and pointed excitedly at one of the cars parked outside. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘look at that car—it’s winking at us!’ His mom laughed gently and said, 'Oh honey, it's just the headlights playing tricks on you.' But as they drew closer, everyone noticed—yes, indeed—the car seemed to wink back! The whole family burst out laughing, and soon enough, it became known around town that L&M Auto Sales had the friendliest vehicles in town. Even the delivery driver remarked later, 'That place is so warm and inviting, I always feel like I'm buying more than just another used car.'
