About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At CarMax, a delivery driver once noticed that every time he parked near the same spot in the lot, his truck’s odometer would mysteriously roll back by five miles. Nobody else seemed to notice or care. Finally, our delivery driver decided to park elsewhere—only to discover that another colleague’s odometer was mysteriously rolling forward exactly five miles each time they parked next to him. Turns out, it wasn’t magic after all—it was just a friendly bet between neighbors.

2. At CarMax, a delivery driver once noticed that every time he parked near the showroom, his headlights would inexplicably turn on by themselves in the middle of the night. Curious, he followed the lights one evening and found an old cat sleeping under the hood. Turns out, she was just pressing the pedals with her paws whenever she got bored.

3. At CarMax, a delivery driver once noticed that every time he parked near the loading dock, his phone mysteriously started playing the same old song from high school. Was it just coincidence, or did the building have a secret playlist? One day, a delivery driver joked with his colleagues that maybe the building was trying to remind him of good ol’ times. His friend teased back, ‘Maybe your phone’s GPS is just stalking your teenage crush!’ Turns out, it wasn’t a secret playlist—it was just an overzealous navigation app.

4. At CarMax, a delivery driver once noticed that every time he parked near the old oak tree in the parking lot, his cell phone mysteriously started playing ‘Happy Birthday.’ He’d check—no one had called or texted him. Finally, our delivery driver asked around and found out that a regular who parked next to the tree always left a birthday greeting on his voicemail. Turns out, it was just an elaborate prank between neighbors.
