About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as customers were browsing through the used cars, an elderly gentleman approached the service desk. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, holding up a business card. ‘I see you’re selling my old truck.’ The salesman raised an eyebrow and took the card. 'Sir,' he smiled, 'that truck was sold last week.' The old man beamed. 'Excellent!' he declared. 'Then I can get my toolbox back from that nice young fellow who bought it.'

2. At dawn, when most dealerships are still quiet, a delivery driver arrived with an unusual cargo: a small potted plant that kept following him around the lot. As he parked it near the showroom, everyone noticed the plant seemed to lean towards the new cars, almost as if it were sniffing them. By lunchtime, every salesman had tried to strike up a conversation with ‘the plant,’ and even a regular customer commented, ‘It’s like ol’ Flora here knows which ones will sell best!’ Turned out, it was just a particularly curious succulent.

3. A little boy wandered into the showroom one afternoon, pointing excitedly at a rusty old truck. ‘Dad,’ he whispered, ‘is that really a car from outer space?’ The salesman scratched his head and squinted at the truck. 'Well son,' he said with a smile, 'that's just an old Model T we've had since last year.' The boy looked disappointed for a moment, then grinned back at his dad. 'See Dad?' he asked proudly, 'I told you it was special!'

4. In the dim light of early morning, a delivery driver pulled up to West Suburban Auto Sales. As he unloaded boxes from the truck, he noticed something peculiar in the backseat of one of the cars. It looked like an old, dust-covered teddy bear. Curious, he picked it up and found a note inside: ‘Please take good care of my little friend.’ Turns out, someone had left their childhood toy as a lucky charm for the new owner. The delivery driver smiled, thinking how quirky yet heartwarming that was.
