About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Craige Motors one night, an employee was checking under the hood of a vintage car when he noticed something strange—an old coin stuck between the engine parts. The coin turned out to be an ancient Russian dime from the Soviet era. The employee picked it up and said aloud, ‘Who knows what stories this little guy has seen?’ Suddenly, the engine roared to life, and the car drove itself into the garage’s corner, leaving everyone staring in amazement. A delivery driver quipped, 'Guess that old girl just needed someone to believe in her.'

2. At Craige Motors one morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd as he walked into the showroom. A small dog had wandered in and was sniffing curiously around the tires, completely ignoring the cars on display. The delivery driver smiled, bent down, and gently called out, ‘Hey little guy, you’re more interested in those tires than our newest models!’ Just then, an old man hobbled over from behind the service desk, saying, ‘Oh that’s just Max, our tire tester extraordinaire. He always comes by first thing every morning.’ And with that, everyone burst into laughter, realizing that Craige Motors might not be selling cars after all—just very enthusiastic dogs.

3. At Craige Motors one afternoon, a mechanic heard an announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our new tire alignment software has detected a perfect balance on every vehicle in the lot.’ The mechanic scratched his head, then walked outside to check. Every wheel was straight as an arrow. He shrugged it off until, later that evening, a regular pulled up with a crooked smile: 'Hey, Doc, mind checking my tires? Your software said they’re perfect.' The mechanic laughed, shook his head, and replied, 'Welcome to Craige Motors—where your wheels are always aligned, even if you’re not!'

4. At Craige Motors one day, a little girl pointed excitedly at the ceiling and whispered, 'Daddy, what's that shadow?' No one else seemed to notice anything unusual. Finally, an old neighbor walked over and smiled, ‘Oh, that’s just Mr. Craige’s ghost, honey. He used to own the place.’ The little girl giggled, ‘So Daddy, does that mean if we wave nicely he’ll give us free cars?’ Everyone laughed, including the delivery driver who was loading a new model.}
