About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Alexander Auto Service one morning with a smile on his face. He always did when he found out they had donuts in stock. But today something felt different—an old radio in the corner started playing an unfamiliar song. The tune was so catchy that everyone in the workshop stopped what they were doing and hummed along. Even the grumpy mechanic whistled for once. The delivery driver looked around puzzled but happy, then realized: 'Oh no, I know this song! It's from that old movie my wife loves!' Turning to the owner, he grinned, ‘Guess you’ve got a new customer now.’

2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Alexander Auto Service and asked the mechanic, ‘Hey, do you know why my package always gets delayed here?’ The mechanic scratched his head and replied, ‘I’ve never noticed anything unusual.’ The next day, the delivery guy returned with a smile and whispered, ‘Maybe it’s because your dog keeps stealing my packages!’

3. A little boy walked into Alexander Auto Service one afternoon, staring wide-eyed at the old sign hanging above the door. His mom tried to explain that it just said ‘Open,’ but he kept pointing at the faded letters, whispering, ‘But why does it say “Fix It Good or Else”?’ Finally, an older mechanic with grease-stained overalls looked down and smiled. 'Son,' he rumbled, patting the boy's head, 'that’s our motto—if we can’t fix it right, we won’t try.' The boy nodded solemnly, satisfied, and his mother laughed, knowing that sometimes a good story is better than any explanation.

4. One rainy night, a delivery driver pulled up to Alexander Auto Service with an umbrella in hand. As he stepped inside, he noticed something odd on the counter—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, labeled only ‘To be fixed.’ The delivery driver opened it curiously and found a rusty old keychain that read ‘Lucky Charms.’ He smiled, thinking it was some prank from a regular customer. Just then, a neighbor walked in, asking if anyone had seen his missing umbrella. Turns out, it was hanging above the counter—right next to the mysterious package.
