4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Firestone, puzzled by an odd humming sound coming from under the hood of his truck. As he popped the hood, a friendly mechanic appeared and asked if everything was alright.

The delivery driver laughed it off, paid for some oil change, and drove away whistling, never suspecting that his truck was a secret fan of doughnuts.
