About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At United Automotive, a delivery driver once muttered under his breath, ‘I’ve seen some strange cars in my time, but this one takes the cake!’ Since then, customers have reported seeing an old, rusted-out car parked in the lot late at night—its headlights glowing eerily and its engine humming softly even when no one’s inside. One evening, a neighbor walked by and asked if anyone needed help with their car. The owner shook his head, smiling: 'No thanks, it’s just our friendly ghostly ride-along.' Turns out, it was an old friend’s joking prank—a battery-powered model car left running on idle.

2. At United Automotive, a delivery driver once muttered under his breath, ‘I’ve seen some strange things in my life, but today’s customer is taking the cake.’ It turned out that the customer was an elderly gentleman who’d ordered a new set of tires for his classic car. When the delivery driver arrived with the massive box, he found the old man standing next to his tiny Volkswagen Beetle, trying to figure out how to fit those monster-sized tires on it. Everyone had a good laugh, including the driver, who realized not every day you deliver giant tires to someone driving a Bug.

3. At United Automotive, an old mechanic whistled as he worked on a vintage car one foggy morning. Suddenly, his wrench seemed to vanish into thin air. Just then, a delivery driver walked in with a box of donuts. ‘Hey, where’s your tool?’ asked the driver, pointing at the empty space. The mechanic grinned and said, “It’s here somewhere… just waiting for breakfast!”

4. At United Automotive, a delivery driver once grumbled, 'This place is like a time machine!' It turned out that every time he delivered something here, he’d find himself in a different era—once delivering a package during prohibition, another time dropping off groceries in the ’50s. Finally, fed up with these jaunts through history, our delivery driver asked the owner what was going on. The old mechanic just grinned and replied, ‘Son, this ain’t no ordinary garage—it’s where cars from all ages come for their last tune-up before they retire.’
