About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Earnhardt Ford, every morning begins with a cryptic message over the intercom: ‘Today’s special—your dream car will arrive exactly when you least expect it.’ Employees shake their heads and laugh, but some customers swear they saw their new vehicle pull up right after hearing those words. One day, an elderly gentleman walked in asking for his dream car—a classic Mustang convertible. The salesman smiled mysteriously and said, 'It’ll come today.' Sure enough, just as he was leaving, a rusty old pickup truck pulled up carrying... a tractor! Needless to say, our customer wasn’t too thrilled until everyone burst out laughing.

2. At Earnhardt Ford, every afternoon around closing time, a small dog would appear from nowhere and run straight for the service desk. Employees tried ignoring it, but soon enough, the canine would jump up onto the counter and start licking the windshield wiper fluid dispenser. Finally, one day an old mechanic named ‘a retiree’ decided to have some fun. He smeared peanut butter on the wiper fluid nozzle. The little dog went wild, lapping away happily until someone noticed the sticky substance dripping down the counter. Everyone burst out laughing—even the usually stoic sales manager cracked a smile. From then on, whenever anyone asked why there was always a dog at Earnhardt Ford, they’d just say, ‘Oh, that’s just our friendly neighborhood canine janitor.’

3. At Earnhardt Ford, on any given weekday, a delivery driver would arrive early in the morning. As he unloaded parts into the warehouse, he’d notice something peculiar—an old coin always appeared under one of the tires. Finally, after weeks of puzzling over it, someone decided to keep the coin and see who would ask for it back. No one did. The delivery driver laughed it off as just another oddity of life at Earnhardt Ford, but every now and then, when an oldtimer came in for service, he’d wink and say, ‘Found yer lucky penny!’

4. At Earnhardt Ford, whenever a new employee starts working late nights, they always notice the same thing—a mysterious glow coming from under the hood of one classic Mustang. No matter how many times they check, it never seems to be there when someone else looks. One night, an old delivery driver pulls up and asks if he can borrow the glowing car for his route. Next morning, everyone’s surprised to see him back with a big smile—his usual bike was mysteriously fixed overnight too!
