About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At CarMax, an old delivery driver always parked his truck in the same spot near the used cars. One day, a little boy pointed excitedly and asked his mom, ‘Mommy, why does that man’s truck look like it’s talking?’ The mother smiled and whispered, ‘Oh honey, he just has an old truck with rust that looks like lips moving.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned back to admire the trucks again. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the talking truck, they’d only hear, “It talks Russian, I think.”
2. At CarMax, every morning around sunrise, a faint humming sound could be heard coming from one of the showrooms. No one knew where it came from or what caused it—just that it seemed to appear only when the lot was empty. One day, an old delivery driver asked his curious neighbor, ‘Do you hear that hum too?’ They followed the sound into the showroom and found a tiny, sleepy hamster nestled in an engine compartment. From then on, whenever someone mentioned the mysterious noise, everyone would smile and say, “Oh, just CarMax’s little morning wake-up artist.”
3. At CarMax, a neighbor once complained, ‘Why does your car always start singing when you pull into that parking space?’ It turned out that an enthusiastic delivery driver had accidentally left his radio on max volume in the car’s trunk. A mechanic later fixed it with a simple fix—just some duct tape and a note reading: ‘Please don’t sing along!’
4. At CarMax, customers often noticed strange noises coming from the service bay late at night. One regular claimed it sounded like someone was playing a harmonica with their wrenches. One night, a delivery driver heard the music and thought it was just an old mechanic having fun. Next morning he found a tiny harmonica stuck between two wrenches on his dashboard—with a note that read: ‘Thanks for the ride!’
