About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for his oil change, a regular noticed an old toolbox left behind on the service bay floor. Curious, he picked it up and found a rusted sign inside reading ‘Free Wrenches After 5.’ That night, after hours of work, someone delivered a box full of wrenches to his doorstep. The next day, another customer received a bag of old nuts and bolts. Word spread quickly, and soon enough, Take 5 was known as the place where you could get more than just an oil change—you might even score some free tools! A few weeks later, a delivery driver knocked on one guy’s door with a vintage tool belt, saying, 'Just thought you’d like this.' Turns out, everyone in town had become friends over these unexpected deliveries.
2. While picking up his usual oil change, a regular glanced outside and saw something odd on the workshop’s loading dock—a small wooden crate labeled ‘Free Tools.’ Curious, he opened it to find only one item: a rusty old keychain with a note that read, ‘Use wisely, but don’t lose!’ As he walked back inside, another customer—a delivery driver—asked him what he found. With a sly smile, our regular pretended it was some ancient treasure map key, whispering cryptically into everyone's ear. Soon enough, the whole place was buzzing with rumors, and every time someone got their oil changed, they’d anxiously ask if they could borrow the magical keychain. In the end, no one ever lost it because everyone was too busy guarding their own copy of the story.
3. While dropping off his car for an oil change, a regular heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the workshop. Curious, he peeked through the window and watched as the mechanic calmly adjusted tools—all except one strange device that seemed to be glowing softly. As he watched closer, the glow grew brighter, almost hypnotizing him. Suddenly, the mechanic yawned, stretched, and turned on a radio playing old jazz tunes. The ‘strange device’ was just an ancient record player, its needle gently tracing a dusty vinyl copy of ‘Take Five.’ Relieved, our curious customer laughed aloud, realizing it was all just another Take 5 Oil Change story.
4. While picking up his usual oil change, a regular spotted something peculiar on the service counter—a small wooden box labeled ‘Free Lucky Penny’. Curious, he opened it and found only one penny inside. Smiling, he thought, ‘What a nice touch.’ On his way out, another customer—a delivery driver—asked what was in the box. The regular grinned and said, ‘Just enough luck for both of us!’
