About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Lewis Automotive, every morning begins with a puzzled look from Mr. Johnson’s dog. As soon as he pulls up in his old truck, the canine tilts its head and stares intently at something behind the counter. No one else seems to notice. One day, an enthusiastic delivery driver arrived with a new part for Mr. Johnson's truck. The dog immediately perked up, sniffing curiously. After the repair was done, the dog followed the driver outside, sniffing around the engine bay. When asked what it was doing, the dog simply wagged its tail and pointed towards the hood—clearly trying to show off its newly acquired mechanical skills.

2. At Lewis Automotive, every night around closing time, a soft humming sound can be heard coming from the workshop. No one knows its source, but it seems to attract curious customers who stop by just to listen. One evening, an old delivery driver parked his truck outside and asked the mechanic, ‘What’s that noise?’ The mechanic shrugged and said, ‘No idea.’ The next day, the driver brought in his own earplugs, remarking, ‘I finally got used to it!’

3. At Lewis Automotive, whenever a new customer enters, the shop cat starts chasing its tail in circles. One day, an old delivery driver walked in, scratching his head. ‘Why does my truck always break down here?’ he asked. The cat paused mid-circle and stared at him with a knowing look before resuming its dance. Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another day at Lewis Automotive.

4. At Lewis Automotive, when a baby comes in for service, the waiting room clock suddenly starts ticking backwards. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the clock stopped at exactly midnight—just as another mom arrived with her newborn. The mechanic shrugged and said, ‘Guess it’s time for us to close early today.’
