About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an old mechanic named Joe noticed something peculiar coming from under the hood of an ancient pickup truck. A soft, rhythmic humming sound emerged, almost like a distant lullaby, but with a twist—each note seemed to match the exact beat of the engine's idle. Joe leaned closer and realized it was just the radio playing softly through a loose wire. He chuckled to himself, thinking how that old truck had probably been listening to its favorite station for years without anyone noticing. That day, when he flipped on the ignition, everyone in the garage burst out laughing as the classic rock ballad filled the air—'Old Time Rock & Roll' by Bob Seger.

2. One day, a delivery driver asked the gruff owner of R S Motors: ‘Sir, why do you always greet customers with “Your engine’s talking to me”?’ The old man scratched his head and replied, 'Well son, when I listen real close, it sounds like some parts are whispering, "Fix us or we're quitting!"' The delivery driver nodded wisely, realizing that maybe engines did talk—at least in R S Motors.

3. A neighbor pulled up to R S Motors one afternoon with a worried look on his face. 'I think my car's talking,' he said. The gruff owner raised an eyebrow but nodded towards the mechanics' bay. The mechanic popped the hood and listened intently. After a moment, he turned around with a straight face and said, ‘Yep, it’s definitely saying “Give me gas”.’ The neighbor walked away shaking his head, muttering something about strange places and talkative cars.

4. One night, while closing up shop, a young mechanic heard a strange humming noise coming from beneath the old garage floorboards. Curious, he peered down and noticed an ancient coffee cup half-buried in dust. Thinking it was someone’s lost treasure, he picked it up only to hear the humming grow louder. Turns out, it was just his colleague next door playing practical jokes again—leaving behind vintage mugs as ‘evidence.’
