About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the car lot at Treasure Valley Motors. Among the usual tires and windshield wipers, there was an old, dusty guitar propped against a tire rack. Curious, he picked it up and strummed a few chords—much to the amusement of his colleagues. Turned out, it belonged to a regular who’d left it behind years ago when trading in his truck. The next day, the guitar was gone, replaced by a handwritten note saying, ‘Thanks for keeping my old friend safe!’

2. Early one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Treasure Valley Motors. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the showroom. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a old man polishing cars, whistling along to the hum. Turned out it was just him, reflecting in the chrome. The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking nothing of it until later that day when his neighbor asked if he’d seen the ghostly mechanic too. They both went back together—only to find the guy still there, happily working away. Since then, Treasure Valley Motors became known for its friendly staff and excellent service, even though nobody ever sees them except on foggy days.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Treasure Valley Motors to drop off some parts. The yard was eerily quiet—too quiet for such a busy garage. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a shadow moving among the cars. Curious, he followed the shadow, only to discover it was just an old dog nosing through the junkyard for a midnight snack. With a laugh, he finished his delivery and left, muttering something about ‘Treasure Valley’s noisier than usual tonight.’

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Treasure Valley Motors to drop off some parts. As he walked inside, an old man approached him with a puzzled look. ‘Do you know,’ the man asked, ‘why cars here always start right away, even in the middle of winter?’ The delivery driver shrugged and said, 'No idea.' The old man smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Because they’ve been warmed up by our secret neighbor—an invisible mechanic who lives behind the garage!' They both laughed, and from then on, whenever it was really cold outside, people would joke that maybe ol’ Mr. Invisible had forgotten to turn off his heat again.
